Use pcpartpicker.com to create a computer, and then check out this buyers guide to make sure everything is compatible without too many modifications. i know the one i made is over your budget, but maybe you can find some parts used and it's at least a place to start. you'll also need a wifi card which runs around $70.

Do some research, ask questions, but DO NOT use tonymacx to actually install OSX, instead follow a vanilla install guide, and learn about kexts, clover, bootloaders, CC, and other Hackintosh related things. this is important, again, don't use unibeast or mulitbeast... do things manually and save yourself a shitload of trouble down the line.

maybe buy this ebook to find out more if you, like me, started off knowing ZERO about computers and hackintoshes.

best of luck! feel free to PM me if you have specific Q's! i'm not a master, but i can probably help point you in the right direction!
