I am building a Hackintosh to use for freelance photo editing on the side. I primarily use CS6, Capture One, and LR. I do the occasional video editing in Final Cut. I would also like to be able to play a few video games on Windows at some point, but it is not a priority at the moment.


I have a few questions. Do I need a CPU cooler? CS6 and Capture One both use Open CL is it worth it to get a video card?
