So yeah, as the title states, I'm going to college next year and I'm for sure going to build a computer. How does this setup look if I intend to run Mac OS X?
On a side note, I would also want to dual boot windows 8 for gaming. In that case, should I go for two smaller SSDs (e.g 64 gb) and have each one boot a different OS?
I would also eventually upgrade graphics cards, most likely to a 770, but I have the 650 right now and might just as well wait and see if any newer and better cards come out so I don't feel left behind.
