Before I go ahead and post to /r/buildapc I just wanted to make 100% that my build is compatible for a hackintosh build. My main focus for the build is for gaming (the reason behind the Windows dual boot), recording gameplay and hobbyist video editing. I will also be needing OS X for Cocoa Touch (iOS) development.

All parts are picked to comply to my Red/Black color scheme for this build.
I will most likely be using the SSD's individually to install the OS's to with remaining space for most used programs and games. Video files will be stored on the mechanical drive. I chose the 290X for my slight fanboyism of the red team and since with Yosemite it will be supported!
Also can anyone make reccomendations on the headphones I have chosen, my requirement with them is that they must be 5.1/7.1 surround and support the Xbox 360 console (I still have 9 months of Xbl subscription left so the peasantry hasn't completely been ridden of me yet. Sorry /r/PCMasterRace.
