Same here and totally confirmed. This is just the best PT rig I ever had, and if I were to build another one for myself I'd go with this one again.

I don't see an issue with Haswell though. Reports have been positive thus far.

I as well have been running a Hackintosh for over a year now. Have never had to mess with anything that didn't come from the App Store. Running Pro Tools 10 and 11 but am waiting out the Mavericks thing as I don't want to lose running 10 and 11 alternately. Use the latest buyer's guide on TonyMac and you should be fine.

I'll echo "Best Pro Tools computer I've ever run."

Mine's still running strong, too. :)

Haven't changed a thing, either. Hanging on to 10 for a little while longer. Still stuck to some of my old plugins that aren't making the migration.

Also waiting for Mavericks to smooth over. Rather avoid Mountain Lion altogether if I can.

I want to build one for my PTHD system. Any issues with cards fitting or anything I need to know about the motherboard as it relates to successfully installed HD cards on the MB?

Also, a separate question, does anyone know if you can mix PCIe and PCI HD cards on the same computer as long as the MB has available slots?

PCI-x cards have to be natively supported on the mobo - ie chipset

Are you aware of any MB's that support both PCIe and PCI/x that will also be useable with a Hackintosh build?

How many legacy PCI-slots do you need?
