I finally got my hands on a Core 7 Ultra 270K Plus to test in a Hackintosh. Complete success! Absolutely responsive; I'd say it's the most responsive Hackintosh I've ever seen. Even though the test was quick, I was blown away. Here are the CPU-only benchmarks. Finally, WiFi/BT with AirDrop and everything else will work perfectly, as I've documented in my previous posts.

Moderately compact, super quiet thanks to all the Noctua cooling, and powerful enough for multiple tasks without being overpowering.

Without a doubt, this case is one of the most attractive for those who appreciate minimalism and the absence of RGB lighting. With real wood accents, it exudes presence and elegance. And if that weren't enough, it includes a complete fan kit (intake, exhaust, and HDD/GPU).
