C2Q Q9450
Asus P5G41T-M LX
Corsair DDR3 1333MHz 4GB x2
Sapphire HD5870 1GB GDDR5
Creative X-Fi Titanium
Intel 520 ssd for OS X and WD Caviar black for windows

i will be coming up with a short guide for the ppl who have the same specs as i do.

my advice, run OS X in a virtual environment. BUY ML using MAS and then make a bootable USB. smile.gif
