Asus K55A build

[WeedBoy]

Hi guys,

First I would like to say that I wanna experiment with this (but if it's a success I would be very much happy) and that is the reason why I am going with these parts, explained in details further below.

Also I am very new at this.

Now, I have ASUS K55A Laptop -> https://www.asus.com/Laptops/K55A/specifications/ with the following specs (some of them will be replaced):

CPU: Intel Core i5 3210M @ 2.50GHz (Ivy Bridge 22nm Technology)

RAM: 4GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 798MHz -> Please suggest; I think 8GB is solid, but which one?

Motherboard: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. K55A (SOCKET 0)

Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000 (ASUStek Computer Inc)

Storage: 465GB Hitachi HDD -> 500GB SAMSUNG 860 EVO SSD

Optical drive: Will be removed

Also, can I install any OS X on this build? If so which one? Which one can be optimal and which one is the latest one that I can use?

Please help me from the start, build, installation and post-Installation optimization.

Let me know what do you think? And make suggestions based on the motherboard and graphics.

Hey [ref]MaLd0n[/ref] thank you for the info.

But, are they (both of them) ready for hackingtosh?

Can i use them without problems (smoothly) with the build from my first post?

If not, which one can I?

Also, can you please provide me with more details about installation and post-installation optimization?

Thanks

Edit: Is 500GB of SSD enough?
