Sorry for another off topic folks... I loathe selling elsewhere (Gumtree etc).

In a week or so I will have my Hackintosh going spare.
CPU: 4790K
GPU: GTX EVGA 970
Samsung 128GB SSD Running 10.12.3 (Clean instal)
Crucial 240gb SSD Running a legit W10
1 TB HDD Storage.
8 GB Crucial ram
EVGA 650 PSU thing
Apple wireless card and bluetooth so Handoff off can work (I haven't set it up).
In a black Bitfenix Phenom case with ALL THE FANS.

Thing thats all the details... pics coming soon... thinking around £600 but let me know if that's too much.

E3 Collection only.

Hmmmmm this could be exactly what I'm after... had plans for a hackintosh build at some point this year. What kind of performance can I expect? My intentions are for a half decent 3D rending rig with some occasional gaming.

Mental good performance. i7 and 970 are big boy gubbins. Games at 1440 on ultra, some in 4K.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
