For his Mac Pro Hackintosh, Jesse used these parts bought from Amazon. He looks pretty stoked!
Here's the list of parts Jesse used:
Case: Corsair Vengeance Series Black C70 Mid Tower Computer Case (CC-9011016-WW): http://amzn.to/1Tix0gT
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z97-HD3 LGA 1150 Z97 HDMI 2-Way CrossFire ATX: http://amzn.to/1NMBicO
CPU: Intel Core BX80646I74790K i7-4790K Processor (8M Cache, up to 4.40 GHz): http://amzn.to/1NMB4SU
RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB Kit (8GBx2) DDR3 1600 MT/s (PC3-12800): http://amzn.to/1Tix4gS
SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 120GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-75E120B/AM): http://amzn.to/1NMAGDY

Power supply: Corsair RM Series 650 Watt ATX/EPS 80PLUS Gold-Certified Power Supply - CP-9020054-NA RM650: http://amzn.to/1NMBadd
Graphics card: EVGA GeForce GT 740 Superclocked Single Slot 2GB DDR3 Graphics Cards 02G-P4-2742-KR: http://amzn.to/1Tiy9oX (Jesse recommends you use the GTX 970, which you can find here).
One of the best parts of building your own Mac computer is that you can pick pretty much whatever case you want.
To add all the parts, you just pop open the case's side panel. This is where all those parts will fit.
Then comes the processor (CPU), which is installed right into its designated slot on the motherboard.
After plugging in some cables into the motherboard, Jesse installs the SSD drive for storage. The storage is where OS X and any apps/documents/pictures/videos will be stored.
Then, Jesse installed the graphics card, which will give the Hackintosh more muscle to deliver beautiful graphics to your screen. This particular card isn't great, but you can add your own, more powerful graphics card if you want. Just make sure it's compatible with OS X by searching online.
While Mac computers come with WiFi built in, you're going to need to add your own WiFi card. You could also buy a USB WiFi adapter dongle if you'd prefer.
To install the Mac OS X El Capitan operating system on your Hackintosh, you'll need a Mac computer and some sort of external hard drive with 16GB of storage, like a USB stick.
If you don't have Mac computer, maybe you can borrow one from a friend for a couple hours.
Then, as Jesse suggests, follow the guide step-by-step as long as your computer parts are compatible with macOS. You can see all the steps in his video, which you can find at the end of this story.
After following all the instructions, you should eventually get to the OS X setup screen on your Hackintosh!
