I don't know how i can install mac in this computer. And i can.

​

Sorry for my bad english, but i need your help

Thanks, and hppy new year!! :)

Hi all, its been a while...

I have a bit of an edge case build I'm eyeing up and hope some folks here can help. I'm currently using a MacBook Pro (13" 2017) an eGPU (RX5700XT) for work (design) and play (PUBG). I'm also using the first gen 5K Ultrafine which I love, tried other monitors, and I just cant do it. I know I know...

My FPS isn't the best (due to weak U class dual core cpu) and after watching some videos it looks like there are tangible improvements in game play if you can hit 100-140 even if your monitor is limited to 60hz as mine is (Source: Linus tech tips with some streamers).

So what I'm looking to do is build a SFFPC with a TB3 mobo (I know, its a choice of 2 really) to power the Ultrafine and try and hit 120fps.

With that in mind what are my options? The intel mobo is limited to 20gbs TB3 speeds while the AMD one is full speed but 100 quid more. Then there is CPU - am I right to assume I need one with an onboard graphics chip to get any output from the TB3 port? I know this can work without directly connecting to the GPU as Linus also did a video where he put together a build using a card with no outputs (mining GPU).

​

Does anyone have any first hand experience with the 5K connect to a 20GBS TB3 port?

Why am I asking on the Hack sub? Because chances are I will try and instal macOS on it at some point and people are more likely to have a 5K on here.

​

I know both options are less than ideal.

Hello, I got Airdrop, Handoff and continuity working on my hackintosh but only in one direction.

I can send files with Airdrop from my iPad to my computer without any issues. My hackintosh however can't send files back to my iPad (it doesn't detect the device). Same thing happens with the shared clipboard. If I copy something on my iPad I can paste it on my mac. But again, the other way around does not work.

I have tried searched online but it seems not many people have this issue. Does someone know how to fix this?

Hardware details:

• macOS: 10.15.1
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
• Mobo: Gigabyte B350 Gaming 3
• Wifi: Asus PCE-AC68
• Bluetooth: Asus BT400

I successfully installed my hackintosh and everything is working, but according to people, it would boot with unsupported gfx card (my rtx 2080) and its true, is there anyway to disbale it just for macos and automatically re enable it for windoes

After a bunch of help here and other forums, I was able to get my SMBios changed to iMacPro 1,1 and fully utilize my hardware. I wanted to post some Geekbench 5 results and how they compare to (much more expensive) Macs.

Needless to say, I was shocked with the performance. Here are the scores:

​

Single Thread: 1263

Multi Thread: 8198

Metal: 49402 (Couldn't find

​

Hardware:

AsRock b450 Pro 4

Here are three screenshots of Multi, single, and Metal benches compared to Macs.

Interested how users of similar hardware perform, and how Intel counterparts perform on Catalina. Hope to see some TRX4 and HEDT scores as well!

Hey,

My budget is 700$ and Im programmer and I want to build hackintosh pc so please can you tell me best components to build hackintosh with installation guide.

Apps mostly I use Android Studio Visual studio Vscode Adobe apps

And No gaming.

I have Gigabyte z390 designare motherboard.

Thanks, Have a great day.

I am planning to install OS X Mavericks through UniBeast (hate me for it, doing it just for simplicity and fun), I couldn't find a direct link to it so I had to grab a dmg off of Google. In UniBeast, it says that it is incomplete while still showing up in the main menu.

I have a well running build based on the following: CPU: intel i7 3770 MOBO: GA-Z77N-WIFI RAM: 16GB (2x8GB) GRAPHICS: integrated OS: Mojave

I'd like to be able to drive a 4k monitor ideally at 60hz. I assume (although correct me if I'm wrong because my MacBook Air can do it) that the integrated graphics would not be able to run 4k at all. If that is the case I was hoping to get advice on a graphics card that would allow me to use 4k 60hz. My priorities are:

1. Ease of integration: ideally something that works OOB or w/o much setup.

2. Price: I want to spend as little as possible. I only need to drive one 4k monitor and I don't game so I don't need compute help from the GPU as much as I just need 4k out.

3. One PCI slot: ideally it would fit in a single PCI slot. This is preferred but not necessary since I could switch to a case that could fit a double slot card.

I finally was able to accomplish building my own hackintosh (Catalina) only thing I'm having is there is no audio going through HDMI, and in the about section it doesn't say my cpu and gpu like the screenshots others have. I am fairly new to this and was wondering if anyone would be able to guide me a bit farther so I can be able to have sound and make a cool screenshot too lol.

Just now succeeded in installing High Sierra on my laptop. But Xcode requires latest OS.

And my devices are in iOS 13.

I wanna learn and develop apps for iOS. It’s my long term dream.

Just wanna know if I could install Catalina on sandy bridge processors.

Hey guys. Im a bit new to building hackintoshes. I have an i5 9400 in an msg mpg z390 gaming plus motherboard with an xfx rx 560. I'm having a lot of trouble creating a boot usb properly for my system configuration. I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I go back to school very soon, and in interest of saving money as most hackintosh builders, this is going to be my school computer being my program uses apple software. Any help would be greatly appreciated. It will boot to clover, I hit install, and it'll eventually hang at apfs module start 1334

Let's say you're using what tonymacx86 considers recommended hardware, would there be a significant performance difference? How much? In which areas would it show? (Processor power, hard drive loading times)

Greetings

Neither the front 3.5mm jack is working nor the rear one.

I'm running Catalina 10.15.2 on Gigabyte z390 gaming M mobo with MSI RX580 and Intel i5 9600k using Open Core.

Though when on budget Lenovo's 330s is good. But i am looking to buy this :- https://www.amazon.in/gp/aw/d/B07RY1L9DN/ref=cm_cr_othr_mb_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8#cm_cr_carousel_images_section

Because the specs are as same as the 330s, my question is will it be as easy to hackintosh it ?

Hello all! I recently purchased an 8th Gen Intel NUC (NUC8i7BEH) and I want to turn it into a Hackintosh, either running Mojave or Catalina. Yes, I’ve checked the guides on tonysmacx86, but I’m brand new to this stuff and it’s very confusing. The machine is running 16GB of LPDDR4 2666MHz RAM, a WD 512GB M.2 SSD, and a 1TB HDD. I’m running Windows 10 (for other tasks) on the SSD and a partition of the HDD and I would like to run macOS on the other part of the HDD.

I do have access to a Mac so I can download macOS Installer from the AppStore. I’ve had some issues with making the bootable USB, as well as the installation. Any advice or links to helpful tutorials and articles is welcome! Thanks!

If you have 1 internal drive for OSX (high sierra, already set up) and 1 internal drive for Windows (win10, yet to be set up), what is the most efficient/stable way to share files between the 2 systems? Transfer the files to an ExFAT formatted external drive and then onto the other internal drive? Os is there a format i can set the Win10 internal drive to that would allow direct sharing between the systems internally?

May not be a Hackintosh issue... could be a macOS setting I'm just not seeing. I've ruled out it being an issue with the devices or cables involved.

Anyway, devices involved:

• Razer Blade Advanced 15 (early-2019 w/ RTX 2080 and i7-8750H) (one TB3)
• Promise Technology TD-300 TB3 dock (two TB3)
• UAD Apollo Twin x4 interface (one TB3)

Signal path is: Razer <-> TD-300 <-> UAD.

Since the Razer has an RTX 2080 which doesn't work in Mojave, I need to use the single TB3 on the Razer to connect to a dock with an HDMI out to an external monitor and a second TB3 to daisy chain to another device (UAD Apollo). Really the only way I should be able to use an external monitor and another TB3 device at the same time.

Anyway, everything works as expected on the Windows 10 Pro partition--daisy chain and all--which tells me the devices and cables are functioning properly.

However, on the macOS partition, the dock works, but the UAD Apollo isn't recognized. It is turned on when macOS loads, so not a hotplug issue. UAD by itself functions normally. Just not when daisy chained and only in macOS.

Is this normal on a Hackintosh? Patching to enable it? Setting I'm overlooking in the OS? Suggestions or other feedback?

I tried an internet install which didn’t worked. I guess I could’ve figured it out but I’ll take the opportunity to go with the VM way. However, I’m wondering how I could clean my EFI partition and basically everything this installation has created on my drive, to avoid any conflict later.

Good day

I currently have a hackintosh setup, however only 1 of my 2 monitors outputs video. The other is black and doesn't detect any input. GPU is Intel UHD 630 which is detected as 1536 MB graphics. Monitor number 1 is a Optix MAG monitor and monitor number 2 is an Acer monitor. I have an HDMI cable running to the Optix monitor and a DVI cable running to the Acer monitor. The weird thing is, macOS is outputting video to the Optix monitor, but display preferences say that the only detected monitor is the Acer monitor (which is a black screen and detects no input). If I unplug either monitor, the display goes black and neither monitor detects any input. I tried some framebuffer stuff a while ago to no effect but I may have done it incorrectly. Config.plist: https://pastebin.com/NdHq4E78

Specs:

Mobo: Asrock z390 Pro4 CPU: Intel i5 9600k GPU: Intel UHD 630 (Geforce RTX 2080 is plugged into the mobo for my Windows boot but it's not being used by macOS)

Greetings,

I've been attempting to hackintosh my designare z390 / 9900k setup for a few days off an on. I posted the EFI I've been hacking away on, and it was criticized as being a mess and I was advised to start over from vanilla. I've tried a bunch of things so far.. but still no dice yet.

​

I keep get stuck booting at the same spot. The only way I've found to share the "log" is to take a video with my phone then screenshot the last frame, which I have done:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/f71ctab6ummhdai/IMG_7435.PNG?dl=0

​

I'm just trying to use the embedded graphics on the 9900k via the HDMI port on the mobo. It kinda looks like my error is maybe related to that. I have tried with "inject intel" toggled off and on in clover config.plist ..

​

Any help appreciated thanks. I've looked at a few config.plist/EFI for this board and I've found so many differences between them that I don't know which ones are meaningful or if they are just red herrings etc. At one point I had 4 screens of Clover configurator open comparing different config.plists I found for this board trying to find the commonalities and even then I haven't made a successful boot yet!

Okay, figured i'd come here because you guys seem to be far more knowledgeable about the inner workings of MacOS than anyone else. I'm having an issue that could potentially be solved by some sort of Kext Modding.

My friend has a MacBook Pro 2015 with the force touch trackpad. It works perfectly fine when booting Linux with both the trackpad and keyboard working flawlessly. Both the keyboard and trackpad have basically shit out in MacOS. After a total wipe and clean install the mac no longer even has all the options in the trackpad panel. Now since the keyboard and trackpad are working in Linux but not MacOS it seems like it may be something firmware related. I've reset the SMC and tried clearing the NVRAM from both the bios/bootloader and through the command line. Nothing is fixing it.

I was wondering what the best course of action would be since he wants to keep MacOS on it and does not want to use it with Linux. Is there any sort of kext mod i could make to try to get them working? From what I've read it seems like MacOS recognizes the trackpad and keyboard using a different protocol than linux, but i was wondering if i can make any sort of mods that will allow me to use the trackpad and keyboard through the same method that Linux is using to pick up on it. Any information, resources, or help is greatly appreciated. Thank You!
