Project Hackintosh [Under 50k]

rider

as Kratos
I want to build a desktop and use the latest Mac Yosmite OS X.
The basic need is photo & video editing and hardcore gaming in 1080p resolution.
I prefer both 256GB SSD for OS and 1 TB 7200rpm HDD.
It should have 16GB of RAM
I already have keyboard, mouse, monitor and speakers. So no expenditures on that.
Budget is as I mentioned 50k INR.
