Hey all,

first time poster. Sorry if this has been posted. I'm looking to upgrade my MacBook Pro and I want to get something that can handle Motion, After Effects, and all my editing software. I don't want to shell out the $$$ for a over priced apple rig. So I've been doing some research on how to build a Hackintosh.

I see everyone posts their rig (Mobo, processor, vid card, etc.). Does the actual parts matter or can any Mobo and processor run Snow Leopard?

This is my current rig that I plan on buying. Will this work?
