From what I understand I7 9700k is more difficult to install for hackintosh so am thinking the no turbo 6core one.

 

welcome

 

Any motherboard you recommend with the i7-9700k or parts?

 

im not an expert...but this may fit..but maybe overpacing here...there are cheaper ones i guess..128gbram is fockn expensive and not needed by you

 

maybe this one

whats youre interface ?

 

Thanks. Will check it out.

 

If you have plenty of money this is even better:
Z390 AORUS XTREME

Interface like sound? Focusrite scarlett

 

cause youre wire.....guess usb then....cause of thunderbold option....maybe you want that option for later...but i would buy RME so i dont need it..but that can change if prices are good
when you buy latest i7 or i9 you set for long time...imho you set forever when always take care for clean fans and stuff

Daskeladden
which mainboard you would use when no need for thunderbold...
you rock this thread btw..EDIT forum too

 

then forgot bout it if you good with youre interface you good

 

Thanks
i'm still using a Delta 1010LT but might build this p.c to use with the slate Raven. but i'm still deciding on what i REALLY want to do. i might get the Raven,Cubase,build a new p.c, upgrade my current p,c,get the Acoustica audio Bundle.I'm still not sure yet. I know i'm definitely getting an MPC X but i'll check this board out. As long as i can use over 3tbs on my main drive,i'm good.

 

Ok thank you friend

 

I would probably go for a Asus board because of the easy to use bios, since Asus Z390-prime has been mentioned I would probably buy Gigabyte Z390 GAMING X which is cheap and has a thunderbolt header. I will not recommend any motherboard for music production without the possibility to add Thunderbolt

 

Running Mac OS on non apple device is called a Hackintosh.

The integrated GPU on your i5 or i7 should be well enough for everyday usage and even light gaming. That guy is trying to rip you off!

Agreed with wasgedn - if you need a lot of synth power i7 might be a better call

 

Is there a mini-itx version of this case? I'm considering to go mini this time. A silent mini case would be awesome.

 

You guys been a tremendous help thank you guys!!

 

Would this board you speak of work with a i7-8700K or a i7-9700k??

 

And forgive my ignorance, thunderbolt would be possible to use on windows os?
