Hi All,

I currently have this desktop machine that has served as my daily computer since September of 2013, here are the specs of this machine: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Rd9q3C

I originally spent only a total of $680 on all those parts, this machine was primarily used for programming (Android Dev, Backend and Frontend), CAD, Data Visualization, Video Editing, and minor gaming (games like NBA 2k15, Skyrim, Assasins Creed).

I don't have a current source to OS X, but I really want to dive into the iOS development world, and after multiple trials of trying to get OSX onto this machine, it just doesn't work. My next step looks like to build a Hackintosh myself. I currently am looking to have a very identical build (or of course, even better!) build, where I can always dual boot between OS X and Windows 8.1 (or the upcoming Windows 10).

I am looking for a $700< budget, and that all the parts just work, with an easy installation, requiring no looking back once OS X is installed.

I am also powering 3 1080P monitors with this desktop. My plan is once I build this hackintosh, I can go ahead and sell this current desktop. I am a broke college student, so wherever I can save some bucks would be appreciated!

Thanks!
