Hello reddit.
I am thinking about setting up a hackintosh on my Lenovo G50-70 and I am looking for some guidance/advice. I didn't find any guide for this config, so I am asking you.
Specs: Lenovo G50-70 * CPU: Intel Core i7-4510U * GPU: Intel HD Graphics 4400 * RAM: 8 GB (2x 4 GB) DDR3-1600 800MHz DDR3 SDRAM * Ethernet: Realtek RTL8168/8111 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Adapter * Wi-Fi: Atheros AR9565 802.11b/g/n Wireless Network Adapter * Audio: Conexant CX20751/2 @ Intel Lynx Point-LP PCH - High Definition Audio Controller
I swapped original 1TB HDD to Sandisk 240GB SSD.
So, my main concerns are: wifi and kexts required.
Firstly, the WiFi. As far as I researched, this card does not work with macOS. I found a list of cards whitelisted by Lenovo for this model, which are following:
WirelessLan_Non_Intel, Ltn NFA335 *(I have this one installed) 1x1BN+BT4.0 PCIE M.2 WLAN FRU:20200558
WirelessLan_Non_Intel, Cbt BCM43142 1x1BN+BT4.0 PCIE M.2 WLAN FRU:20200557
WirelessLan_Non_Intel, Cbt RTL8723BE 1x1BN+BT4.0 PCIE M.2 WLAN FRU:20200570
WirelessLan_Non_Intel, Ltn NFA345 1x1AC+BT4.0 PCIE M.2 WLAN FRU:20200579
WirelessLan_Non_Intel, Cbt BCM43162 1x1AC+BT4.0 PCIE M.2 WLAN FRU:20200573
WirelessLan_Intel, Intel 3160 1x1AC+BT PCIE NGFF WLAN FRU:20200418
I would like to know if any of those works with hackintosh, and if not, what card do you recommend (and how to make it work with my laptop)?
Secondly, what kexts do I need to install to make everything work?
Any help will be much appreciated!
PS. Hope you don't mind my english, it's not my mother language ;)
