Hello everybody, I was thinking to create a desktop PC - hackintosh. I was wondering how it looks like when we come to automatic updates ? Is it possible ? or we need to do it other way manual ? What about with new system release update ? Can somebody explain how You deal with it ? and how complicated it is ?

I need to accelerate a gpu R9 370 in OC Catalina ? I try everything but my graphic card stay with 7 mb

I just achieved my first Hackintosh installation and it works pretty well, except my Wifi/Bluetooth card which is not recognised.

I bought a BCM943602CS card and installed it in the M.2 slot of my Asus Z490-I motherboard using this Wifi Card to NGFF Key A/E M2 adapter.

How can I check if my PC actually recognise the Wifi card? I didn't see anything in BIOS.

Should I install something to make it working (such as a kext)? If I understand well, the card I bought is recognised by default by macOS, and does not require any additional installation.

Or maybe should I install AirportBrcmFixup and BrcmPatchRAM, as explained in this section of the guide: When and what kexts to use

So, finally after how many hours of watching people making hackintoshes. I decided that it's time for me to ride the plane too.

My laptop specs are :

CPU : Intel Core i7-7700HQ GPU : Nvidia GTX 1050ti RAM : 8GB DDR4 2333mhz Storage : 256GB SSD + 1TB HDD

Ports : 1x HDMi, 1x type-c port, 2x usb 3 and 1x usb2

For the GPU, I don't need it for now because I'll be focusing with programming and very light photoshop/illustrator for Icons and images for the apps that we are developing.

For the wifi, I'm more of a ethernet person. But I have a wifi dongle do that I can still use it wirelessly.

Now, I'm planning for an openCore approach for this. I saw a github, ZiQiLN was the github handle. I think I can also peek from his configs to help me get through the installation.

My main concern is:

1. Will I be able to use the 1TB HDD for secondary drive, for files only purposes?

2. I'm not a gamer or heavy video editor, is it worth it?

3. Will the HDMi port work? I know that it is optimus. Also, after reading some threads about my laptop, the GPU is hooked with the HDMi(?). What does that mean?

4. Will that type-c port work? I might need it in the future.

I'm asking you guys since you guys have experience already. Thank you very much ! ☺️ Cheers!

Is it is possible to accelerate hackintosh kvm by gtx 1650 gpu

hi, i found my old acer aspire es1-531-p4sw, it has intel pentium and intel hd graphics. will some version of mac os work on it?

Hi I’m looking for the efi / drivers for the latitude 7400 2-1 laptop

Thanks!

I have a laptop in which ryzen 5 3550h cpu and gtx 1650 GPU. I want to install hackintosh on my laptop.

For Intel laptops guide already available on the website. Please release guide for amd laptops also.

Hi. I have an i5-3230M laptop. I use clover 5114. Once i have tried bad efi which i have found on web. But after that always when i boot i have message the system was automatically rebooted after panic. You can see logs here. I have tried to reinstall system and clean nvram from clover by pressing F11 and used script for system but it doesn't help. But what is interesting I use Macbook Pro 10,2 smbios but in the stackshot we can see macbook air 5.1. What can you advice?

Hey guys, first time posting in here, hoping someone can steer me in the right direction.

Today i upgraded my 9700f to a 9900k chip, it was a straight swap with no issues, but the 9900k seems to be underperforming, judging by its geekbench 5 score (8100, should be closer to 8800). Is there anything that could be holding it back? perhaps my system is configured for the old chip and is not utilising the new one perfectly?

My brother built this machine for me so it might be something obvious to you guys, but alien to me.

Thanks for any help

Hello! I tried last night to install Hackintosh High Sierra 10.13.6 on my old PC. But I had issue like kernel panic. I tried with safe mode and Apple Logo appear then my PC reboots automaticly. I have tried with no kexts and one million parameters nothing work! Here is the PHOTO of kernel panic. Here is my PC:

1. Intel core i3 540
2. NVdia GeForce 210
3. 2 HDDs (One is MBR 320GB with Pardus [Linux] other one is GPT 500GB with Chromium OS) NOTE: I want to install on 500 GB!
4. BIOS DDR3 Motherboard (American Megatrens)
5. I have 16GB Sandisk USB Stick

Please help me! I want Hackintosh for XCode and need fast! Thank you!

I recently bought a pc which is i3 3320 processor on intel dh61ww motherboard 8gb ram and one gt610 GPU I want to install macOS catalina on it I've tried dortania 0.6.2 open core ivy bridge guide but can't make a uefi usb bootable windows 10 uefi usb boot and install on this machine but macOS uefi doesn't even show uefi partition in boot menu as well as in bios what should I do . Any version of Mac os would be good just keep it as backup machine.

I think I'm going insane.

Does my computer just hate macOS, or what? I have garbage graphics performance on macOS for doing anything. Literally scrolling causes lag. I'm getting fed up with it at this point. I'm so close to giving up. Can anyone help out?

Basically I have issues with things like scrolling. Even if I have an app called SmoothScroll, I get terrible performance just scrolling a website like apple.com. That's really my main issue. I think my GPU gets worn out by macOS as well because I hear coil whine whenever I'm on macOS. Any ideas?

Yes, I did get the updated patches that improved graphics performance. They are vastly improved from before but performance could still be a lot better.

Specs: - Ryzen 7 1700 - Gigabyte Radeon 5700 XT Gaming OC - MSI B350 PC Mate - Fenvi HB-1200 - 16GB RAM - Samsung 960 Evo 500GB

Sorry for the terribly formatted post. I'm just so frustrated right now.

Hey all,

Currently working on a G3 build at the moment using some old components I have at the moment. Presently I have a 4690K and 32GB of Corsair memory, and of course the case.

I'm planning on using The Laser Hive's rear conversion plate, as well as a 240mm radiator where the original fan is mounted, and a Barrow pump/res/block combo. I've got a Corsair TX750M as my intake fan so it'll be running in negative pressure config.

I was just looking for what options work best for a direct install of Catalina on an mATX Z87 board, and what would you reckon would be a good match, GPU wise? I'm thinking a Radeon RX5500 should do nicely, but I'm not sure how well that plays with Catalina.

Also, I need some replacement bits for the G3 case, namely a side panel, top handles and the latching mechanism that sits under the main board. Does anyone have access to a store which sells these, or even anyone who has 3D printable files for these parts?

Any help would be appreciated. It's a bit of an uphill battle, but dangit, it'll work.

Hi, it will be my first time building a hackintosh and this is the hardware i am planning to use:

Bug Sur or Catalina build.

Processor: Intel Xeon E5 2620 v3 Mobo: x99 motherboard DDR4 M.2 (Chinese) Ram: DDR4 8GB*2 SSD: Kingston 240gb x 2 GPU: 1050ti 4gb PSU: Corsair vs450

is there a chance i can run the latest version of hackintosh?

Budget is tight. Purpose: Video editing 1080p and some office works. With dual boot to Windows for some driving simulator games.

Any input is appreciated. Thank you guys.

Rebuilt my Hackintosh into a Cooler Master NR200, and mixed up all the parts!

Quick backstory:

• I had all the parts, except a new SFF case.
• I was using a full size ATX board initially for my Hackintosh in an NZXT 510, and a Mini-Itx build as my primary gaming rig in a corsair 280x.
• During quarantine, I scored a 9900k from some guy whose kid broke his alienware laptop, so he took it apart and sold me the processor for cheap. SCORE.
• Ultimately, I had the time on my hands, and I wanted to rebuild my gaming set up with a better water-cooled loop, plus it was due time to do a cleaning.

What I did:

• The not relevant bit:
  • Rebuilt my mini itx gaming rig using the 9900k and a GA-Z370 Aorus Gaming Wifi board, 32GB RAM, GTX 1080 ti - into a full Lian Li 011D Custom water cooled loop.
• The Relevant bit:
  • Rebuilt my ATX hack into a Mini-itx beast using:
    • i7-9700k
    • Asus Z390i (mint itx)
    • Cooler Master Hyper Black 212
    • SF Dagger 650w SFX
    • Cooler Master NR200 White
    • Sapphire Pulse 5700 XT Nitro+
    • 16GB DDR4 Crucial Ballistix RAM
    • Broadcom BCM94360NG - plug & play wifi card (Replaced the onboard wifi card from Asus)
• Whats Working
  • Everything... iServices, DRM, GPU Acceleration, Audio, Wifi/Bluetooth etc.
• Havent Tried
  • Integrated graphics

How I Did it:

• Rebuilt the EFI Folder on an existing flash drive installer I already had on 10.15.6
• Followed the vanilla guide, along with couple other users suggestions regarding usb ports to get wi-fi / bluetooth working
  • Using USB Inject All Kext & setting XCHI Port Limit to false.

What i'm not happy about:

• My cable management looks like ass. Had to take the build a part a couple times, because the io cover of the mobo was too beefy, and wouldn't let my GPU lock in correctly. So I finally got it running, and tapped out for the day. I'll revisit eventually.
• Cooling may be limited... ideally i'd like to get a AIO for the CPU, and be able to install some fans on the top of the case to pull in some fresh air, and exhaust through the side.

Hi, I'm new in all this Hackintosh stuff and pretty scared to do it, I was trying to find guide for my exact setup which is Ryzen 5 1600 AF, GTX 1660, Gigabyte GA-AB350M-DS3H V2 with 16 gigs of RAM but I couldn't find anything 1:1

I have a few questions:
-Do I have to install Windows again and lost all my data?
-Does anyone have Hackintosh on my CPU, and is it good, is everything working?
-Will Mac be really better for tasks such as film editing, computer graphics et cetera?
-Would these programs work fine on my Ryzentosh: Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Photoshop and is sync with iPhone good?
-Can I have both systems on the same SSD drive? I have only one so it's problem, the second one is HDD (I don't want to place any system on this guy-)

Thanks and sorry for my english I don't know if it's that bad

Hi everybody I looked for lenovo ideapad tutos, but no success... I tried with catalina, but is in fact is it already possible with big sur ?

​

If you have some clues I would be very happy cause I'm kinda lost!

Hi i installed macOS High Sierra on my Desktop and it booted, most of the things worked. But in order to install NVIDIA Web Drivers i had to update to get a supported build. So i downloaded the updates (security,safari,itunes) and installed it. It updated successfully but now when i try to boot into macOS i get a Security Violation error:

OCSB: No suitable signature - Security Violation OCB: Apple Secure Boot prohibits this boot entry, enforcing ! OCB: LoadImage failed - Security Violation

I appreciate any help, thanks in advance.

Hardware: - Ryzen 7 3700X - 32GB DDR4 3000 (Corsair Vengeance LPX) - MSI B450M MORTAR MAX - Samsung 960 Evo 500GB - GTX 1070 - Installation method: OpenCore

Hi, I successfully installed the Catalina yesterday, but now the About This Mac section shows that my igpu has 7MBs of memory. Verbose mode also shows: [IGPU] Graphics driver failed to load... I'm also using OpenCore.

My setup:

• Intel Core i5 9600k

• MSI B360 Gaming Plus

Config.plist: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1l16UwIPp5FLv6Z9MP05BbDIpjVw0Jac3/view?usp=drivesdk

Hardware:

• CPU: Intel XEON E5-2620-v3
• GPU: Gigabyte AMD R9 270x
• Motherboard: Kllsire kllisre x99z v102
• Ethernet Card: Realtek RTL8111 (I believe, according to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvVceGyyvm4&ab_channel=Miyconst)

The guide I'm following:

https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/

What part I got an issue with:

See picture. Also, it is not recognized in the Network Utility.

Things I've tried:

• Most of the Realtek RTL8111 kext from the dortania guide. I always check my config plist to see if it's there.
• Changing the ethernet cable. I'm using an internet switch but I wouldn't say that's the problem
• Editing the info.plist inside the RTL8111 kext and changing network-root to root, according to similar posts
• HoRNDIS . I don't think I've installed it properly though. Do I need MacOs to install it? I've extracted the .pkg and then the payload and then just simply put that kext inside my kexts folder, deleted the RTL8111 kext, and checked it showed up in my config plist. I connected my phone via USB (I've tried 2.1 and 3.0) and turned on tethering. Still nothing.

Things I'm going to try:

• This post
• Realtek RTL8125 kext (I don't it's going to work, but I'll just try)
• BCM94360CS2 (found one second hand for 15€ near me) with either this adapter or this one. I'm not sure if my motherboard supports A/E keys, mine just says sata m.2. Will this work out of the box?
• Buying a PCIe network card just for the install I just don't know which one. Later on I'll be swapping it for either a BCM94360CS2 or one of those usb wifi adapters I already have (tp-link TL-WN725N, says it has Mac support)
• Iread something about changing the order of the RTL8111 kext inside the config plist, but I can't find the post I read. I think they suggested putting in right bellow the Lilu and VirtualSMC in the config plist.

I will be posting any updates for future reference, it seems people have a lot of problems with the RTL8111.

Also this is my first hackintosh and I've read X99 is not great for beginners.

Hi everyone. I want to install Hackintosh on a computer with MSI H270, Intel Core i7-7700 and GeForce GTX 1070 Ti. How do I properly configure my MacOS High Sierra Config.plist file to run with Nvidia Pascal GPUs?

Hello everyone,

I want to make an Intel CPU build hackintosh. I have a budget of $1200. I would like at least 32gb RAM and a core i7 or higher, preferably. I'm fine with previous gen. I'm deciding between a 5500XT and a 5700XT depending how much everything else costs. Could someone recommend me a full build (not including keyboard, mouse, and monitor)? I am fine with other graphics cards as well.

Thanks everyone!

Hi, guys! I know you can’t post links here but bear with me. I wanna build my first hackintosh but I don’t have accsess to a real Mac. Can someone at least point me to a direction where I can download the dmg file? Thanks in advance

Devices are plugged directly into the USB 2.0 ports on the back of the motherboard

CPU: Intel Core i7-860 (Lynnfield)

Board: Lenovo ThinkCentre M90

GPU: nVidia GeForce GTX 750TI

macOS Version: 10.13.6

OpenCore Version: 0.6.2

I can provide my EFI folder if needed

I see that there are a lot of changes in the config file and I don't have much idea what the new terms and settings mean.

My current config.plist with Clover version 5121 is this.

And this is the example model that appears to configure in version 5126. I don't have a very difficult configuration, I use a GT 740 as a graphic and I don't use a special SSDT either.

I brought a MacBook Pro from this woman on Facebook Marketplace for strictly video editing and etc.. overall it is a nice MacBook and performs well but I had no idea the laptop would be stuck in 2010.. I was able to do the IMovie hack and it is running the latest version but my question is if I do the Catalina patcher by dosdude1 will I be able to download newer apps from the App Store? Currently it will not let me download any due to it not being 10.14 or higher..

TDLR; Purchased refurbished 2010 MacBook Pro and unable to download newer apps from AppStore, will installing the Catalina Patcher trick the system to letting me download apps using 10.14 or higher?

I am hearing alot and negative comments about hackintosh that it is dead or will be dying . Anyone one can comment on some positive comment and facts ...thanks

I wanted a mobo that is compatible to big sur by installing directly to the system. No pre installer needed?

I’ve been looking for a more powerful hackintosh and I’ve always wanted a dual CPU configuration. I already have the cpus and the RAM just need a dual socket motherboard (already have a single). Also how does MacOS handle the Intel C612 chipset?

Hey I want to install Big Sur on my latitude e7450 so the issue it it requires latest version of clover. Catalina 10.15.7 works perfectly with clover 5122 but when I update clover to later versions Mac does not boot stuck on apple logo or black screen here I have included the link for clover folders for both versions can you make config.plist for 5126 clover so it works with my laptop please
