I am running a almost 100% stable hackintosh now in a Ghost S1. But I got a used Skyreach Mini S4 that I am moving to. So I need to step down a bit on CPU and GPU.
My Current setup:
- Intel i7 8700k, 3.6GHz , overclocked to 4.8Ghz
- Asrock z390 Phantom Gaming ITX TB
- 32GHz DDR4, 3200MHz (2x16)
- Scythe Big Shuriken 2 rev.B (66mm height)
- Corsair SF600 psu
- 2 x Noctua NF-A12x15 top fans to pull air out
In the Syreach Mini S4 I don't think it will handle 95W cpu and the cooler is too high. I will be using
- Noctua NH-L9i (37mm height) or NH-L9a-AM4
- HDPLEX brickless 400W internal psu
The big question I am asking is: Should I go for AMD or Intel?
My choices are:
- AMD Ryzen 5 3600 (6-core)
- AMD Ryzen 7 3700x (8-core)
- Intel i7 10700 2.9GHz (8-core 65w)
- Intel i5 10400 3.3GHz (6-core 65w)
I have done several hackintoshes, mostly Intel but also a AMD Ryzen 5 3600.
I am also planning of changing my motherboard in the new Skyreach Mini S4 build. I know I can save some money on going AMD. But to be honest I have read so much about compatibility issues on AMD still. Would like some real honest opinions on if I should go Intel 10th gen or AMD!
