Hello Everyone!
I bought & built a gaming rig last year and recently have been curious about making it into a Hackintosh. I was wondering what I would need to change in my current build to accomplish this. Here's what I have now:

I believe that I would need to change the mobo and possibly the graphics card, but I wanted to see how important it is that I change them, and if anything else raised a red flag for anyone. Thanks for the help!
