My Hackintosh is indeed a couple months old, but i never took the time to write it up here. (I may have forgotten about it meanwhile... :D )
So in favor of recent events, i changed my background image to an more appropriate setting :) Pluto <3 Imgur

Man shit that thing runs well! May even get a second Monitor this thing (the monitor) blows it!
Bootloader i am using?
Clover is the way to go!
Why did i get so much memory?
I'll need it because panoramas are big things! (Couple hundert Megapixels.... may even going towards a Gigapixel O.o)
What currently is not working:
- AppStore (a matter of willingness and having a cable connectionto the router/modem, but i don't have the time now)
- iMessage & Co. (worked for a week, after fiddling it worked again for a week than it stopped working since, may have to fiddle again but time...)
- HDMI Audio (don't care about that.. got a decent DAC long ago... )
- things i've not yet used but don't work ? :D
What is running at the time:
- everything else
What i love about t:
- OS X (coming from MS Windows 8)
- Multiple Desktops!
- Speeed!
I may note that this Hackintosh will be used entirely for private purposes! I do not recommend building a Hackintosh for any serious paid work! Stop now and get a "real" Mac if this is the case!
I'll be happy to help if there are any questions! But remember this is my first hack and i'm not that into it that i will be able to explain it in great detail or even explain it :D
