I've never built a PC before, but I intend to with the help of my friend who has. I had my friend help me out with an initial build. Any suggestions, comments/ critiques are welcome. PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

I'm worried about compatibility. Will this be compatible with El Capitan‎? All help appreciated! Thanks.

For background info I come from a history of Mac use and currently I have a 2008 20 inch iMac. Surprisingly it can handle Premiere Pro and After Effects, but it is a bit slow. This Hackintosh is intended to run mainly OSX with Adobe applications (mainly Premiere Pro and After Effects), but I'm also open to running Windows 10 alongside. Not intended for gaming. (The price of the GPU is bumped down because of a deal I have arranged with my friend.)
