Let me thank everyone who have previously paved the way for us beginner Hackintoshers. This was so easy compared to my first build and everything worked flawlessly out of the box. Setup and install of box in total, roughly 1-2h.

The guide I used (along with OC's written guide) was Technollis: Video Here

Specs

  • Corsair TX550M, 550W PSU
  • Gigabyte Z390 GAMING X, S-1151
  • Intel Core i5-9400F Prosessor
  • Sapphire Radeon RX 580 Pulse 8GB
  • Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4 3200MHz CL16
  • 2x WD Black SN750 500GB M.2 SSD
  • Noctua NH-U12S CPU Kjøler
  • Fractal Design Define C ATX
  • G-tech 2TB Time Machine / SuperDuper! cloning disk for Backups

PS. Build parts were chosen based on other peoples build success. CPU was chosen specifically to bypass iGPU hassle.

Opencore is an incredible bootloader. I'll stick with OC over clover while it is this stable and easy to use.

EFII won't post EFI. Use the guide below to make it work for your hardware or read Opencore's guide.

First install the display locked to 30 fps after launching any full screen application. Solved it by using default DSDTs from OCs guide. Raher than following Snazzylabs tutorial.

As you can see it even runs WoW pretty well, and other games have been running good too. Full acceleration at 60 fps.

  • Sleep works perfectly as well (which was an issue in the past).
  • I have not tried Sidecar, iMessenger, etc but based on everything else it should be working fine.

Future updates: To be added: WiFi / BT
