I posted this twice in /r/buildapc and no one commented... so trying the last time here. This will be the 2nd PC I've built.
I recently turned my SabertoothX79 i7 3930k into a dual boot hackintosh: now I want to build one for Girlfriend.
The RAM and GPU are coming out of my machine. I am giving her half of what I currently have.
1xSSD per OS, Win7 and Mavericks. I might go Win8.1 for her. I'm on the fence about it. I am on Win7 myself with no problems. I'll buy a copy of MacDrive and format the 4TB drive HFS+
She will be going away to school with this hence the wifi card because I won't know if she will be able to hook up to an ethernet cable. This particular card is hackintosh friendly.
For gaming we play a lot of Borderlands2 and will be playing the PreSequel together.
Critique my build please!
