I'm looking to build a hefty Hackintosh for triple-booting (Win 8, Ubuntu, Mavericks) to act as my home desktop/server. My primary uses are statistics/data analysis and gaming. My target price was $1000 and I came in just below that, with room for future upgrades.
I'd like feedback especially on:
- Any potential hackintosh incompatibilities,
- Anywhere I'm wasting money, or
- Anywhere I've missed a cheap improvement.
Here's the build:
