The Reasons Why did I Build Custom Mac

Many of pros and cons if we talk about Custom Mac best known as Hackintosh. Of course build a custom Mac needs more skills than buy an Apple Macintosh. But there are some advantages when you do that. And here I wanna show its advantages for me.

1. Hackintosh is cheaper.
The question is how much the custom Mac could save you? If we compare the New Mac Pro and the Highest spec Hackintosh was built by me, it's about Hackintosh is 30% cheaper than buy a new Mac Pro with almost the same benchmark result.

2. Hackintosh is more flexible.
When you build a custom Mac, you have many choices to select which peripheral do you want. If you a video editor and need a higher graphic cards than AMD Firepro D500 in Mac Pro 2013, hackintosh can do that. You can adding EVGA GTX 780 Ti to your machine if you prefer on a "green side" or an Sapphire R9 280x if you prefer on the "red side".  When the new graphic card release and it works on OS X, if you can change it later, why not? If you wanna get some storage, hackintosh also can bring chance to you. We know that the new PC case have enough slot to do that with supported motherboard.

3. Hackintosh is more fun.
Yes, it's true. Installing OS X on custom build PC with trials and error is more fun for me.
