Required Guidance regarding hardware.

I have decided to finally take the plunge into making a hacintosh.

After reading about it since last many days in this sub and dortina guide, I have found that I need to buy a new gpu (I have non-igpu processor and Nividia quandro grpahics currently) and sperate NVME to run hackintosh from. I had previous done a hackintosh dualboot with windows on my old laptop but then removed it later and don’t want to do it again on the same.

Here are my PC Specs:

Intel i5-11400f

16 GB of ram (Might upgrade to 32 GB but not decided yet when)

OS: Win 11 on NVME and Ubuntu on HDD

Current graphics : Nvidia Quadro T400 (Will be disabled for hackintosh but will be used with windows and Linux)

Now here is where I am having a problem.

Option 1:

I can buy 250gb sepperate NVME (WD build) + Sapphire RX 6600 and it will cost me somewhere around 350$ (I am from India so no microcenter for me) and triboot it. Also, the new graphics card will be in pcie x4 port as x16 is already occupied with my quadro graphics.

Option 2:

I can buy a 2nd hand laptop with integrated graphics and make it a hackintosh with only 1 OS for around the same 350$ with around 8gb of ram and inbuilt ssd and intel processor

My current pc is what I have built for my freelancing and soon my own business work.

I am confused as to what I should do and go ahead with. Kindly guide me.
