After waiting for 9 days for the parts to arrive, its finally here. It feels like Christmas, just need the time to spend putting it all together. Then installing Windows 7 (for gaming), then hacking into OSX (for work). I know the hackintosh part isn’t going to be easy, so when work calms down. I can post on how I’ve done it.

HDD2: Samsung HD753LJ 750GB SATA2 32MB MAESTRO (for OSX)

This looks like a fantastic setup. I plan on building this one myself. (or something similar to the lifehacker build). Who manufactured your GPU?
Also, any details about your process for getting the gpu working on snow leopard would be fantastic.
this could be the go-to place for this build if you listed all kexts etc. that went into this.
nice setup!
