Hey guys, looking for a little help on this, I've gone through the main items of what I will need to build a Hackintosh over the next few weeks, but I'd love any comments or suggestions. Especially when it comes to adding a cooler or similar, I already have a blu-ray optical drive, just need to know if this Frankenstein monster will run a smooth OSX and Windows dual boot.

I already did a look on msy for these parts, and it's actually come out to $1408. I'm thinking I'd take advantage of the system for editing in Premiere Pro, a little Illustrator usage and some MangaStudio Ex work.
