Its hard to justify. I also wanted it wife proof. "The wife" controls is from her iPad to watch VPN protected/hidden Netflix and store torrents locally so she doesn't clog up my iMac/her Macbook with 120 GB of Sex and the City. Yeah you can do that on PC too but she has never used one (and neither had I until last year).
I felt if I was going to build a PC I might as well build one that runs OS X too. Nearly gave up halfway through but stuck with it, could have been even cheaper if I didn't want to run OS X.
Also, since I have been using Macs for work for 10 years adding a new OS into my home made no sense.
If I wasn't going to run OS X and just use it for games I would prob make it W10 only and boot straight into Steam in big picture mode.
Why not have a normal PC for games?
This is why I think most people build them (a few would be Mac user on budget I guess). It's why I don't have one. I thought about it when I first heard of them but I'm just not that into playing around with computers when I've spent the last 20 years working with 'em.
I used to run Mac emulation on a PC... now that was clunky.
