Great job getting this working and making a very watchable video on it. I've been building and using hackintoshes since around 2014. The early days on Clover were brutal compared to current Opencore builds. With Opencore, if you do your research and are meticulous in following the guide precisely, the results are pretty bombproof. At least on desktops.
I know the years of Hackintosh is coming to a close at some point in the future but regardless Hackintoshes have many years of life due to security updates and ease of making one. My hackintosh is actually a gaming PC (I dualboot Windows). Once I see that new software is no longer being developed for older macOS, then yeah maybe I'll buy a real Mac Mini.
My last Hackintosh was an i7 8770 with a Vega 56 flashed to 64. But the regular M1 blew it away in FCPX. I'm curious on powerful hardware how well FCPX could run🤔
Same boat, but on a NUC Intel 12700 now. Previously running on a 9400F/RX580 combo since BigSur, flawlessly. Sad that we can no longer enjoy it as you said, but Ubuntu could run fine too.
Hey! Can you tell me if you know how to fix the cursor glitching when changing it's state. Like when hovering over a link it glitches out a bit. I have a RX570 too.
@@QuinsTechCorner Yep it happens everywhere. I see that you didn't face this problem so I'm going to tinker with it myself more :) I just saw some people having this exact problem on Google and didn't really see any proper permanent solution which made me think that it's just something you can't fix. But you gave me some hope haha.
Thanks for this excellent video! I am really very interested in being able to do my hackitosh, since I am studying to be an iOS developer and with savings I was able to buy a mac mini late 2014 that has been with me for a year and a half, but unfortunately Xcode is becoming heavier and has new updates that they make it impossible to work in the development environment. Before buying the Mac mini, I built a PC, but I had no knowledge of being able to install macos on that system. Now that I was able to understand that if it is possible, I think I can move forward in carrying out the hackintosh. My hardware is: Intel i5 10400F CPU, 240gb SSD + 2tb HDD, AMD Radeon R7 360 2gb GPU, 8gb ram. I wanted to ask if you could recommend a cheap GPU to replace the one I have at the moment and it is not supported by macOS. I have a 650w bronze plus power supply, so I wouldn't think I would have any problems in that regard. I hope you can answer me, greetings!
Hi, this sounds great! I really enjoyed reading this. For a gpu replacement, I would recommend something like what I use in this video, such as the RX570. AMD polaris cards tend to strike a good balance between value and performance. :-) Make sure to do a quick google to make sure the card is supported before you buy it. Cheers.
man i tried making a hackintosh before, and i definitely will try again once i get my new parts but sometimes hackintosh can be a pain to setup, also love the rift, i believe it's from dark? no?
Hey! So I have a Ventura hackintosh…. and I’m scared too. My plan is to just clone the drive, in case it goes wrong, and just try upgrade straight from the app.
I might try this on a Optiplex 3060 SFF that I bough for a home server, even though I already have a Mac. I remember when I first did this with my desktop PC before I bough the Mac. It was sluggish and buggy but it was a fun (and frustrating) experiment.
@@QuinsTechCorner I spent the last day setting it up. Wasn't that painful, probably because Intel (last attempt was a Ryzen 3600 - GT 720 system). Works great although I have no use for it now, but it looks cool. Might try if I can use macOS as a home server.
My experience with hackintosh is sound only working once and camera never working but thats probably because i use a laptop and they have more specific drivers and all that
Hey, Sorry for the (long!) delay in getting back to you. I’ll put it in the video ideas bucket! I’m not sure how Resolve uses system resources, but I imagine it would run as well as a mid range late model intel mac.
If you are a tink and want to spend all your time tinkering with your OS to get iMessage and other things to work correctly, go for it. My time is too valuable. Yes, Apple charges WAY too much for RAM and SSD upgrades, but actually being productive and getting work done is more important and valuable to me.
Omg u sound so important. Thanks for gracing my channel with your high-performing presence. I can’t imagine how valuable you and your extra 5-10 mins of time must be. 🫡 Keep grindin’ king. 😎
@@QuinsTechCorner Not trying to be a dick, but you are not being honest. You know it takes much more than 5-10 minutes to keep everything running correctly with a Hackintosh. If it were simple, everyone would do it.
@@dansburns You're not correct. Once the work relating to the initial install is complete, it's basically 'set and forget' with OpenCore. Since installing, not once have I had to tinker with anything. I have nothing to sell, nothing to gain, so there's no reason to be 'dishonest'. I'm calling it like I see it: the machine is super stable and requires nothing further once install is complete. The reason people don't do it, is because it's pretty stupid to hold onto macOS on unsupported hardware in 2024. It's a last-ditch attempt on my part to keep using macOS, since I can't afford a Mac.
I was very much interested in hackintosh until m1 came and i knew it will be more hassle and will die soon. Now i just run linux with macos and windows kvm.😂
It's still trash sadly. Hackintosh has come a LONG way since the early days but it's still way too finicky and not up to par performance wise as real apple hardware. I've tried probably 5 or 6 times in my lifetime to fully switch over to hackintosh, i think the longest I ever got was a month before throwing in the towel and switching back to either windows or mac.

Yes - open core is a game changer.
OpenCore desktop is as easy as following a step-by-step guide, It's amazing what the community achieved
It's fantastic! @@liamsz
Very easy to watch video, with excellent narration.
I want to build my own Hackintosh now 😮
Thank you kindly!
You should, it’s very fun 😂

Thanks for watching. :-)
Nice tree! 🎄
Thanks!! 🎄
I recognized the soundtrack, it's from "Dark" tv series
Yep!!
Nice spot.
My last Hackintosh was an i7 8770 with a Vega 56 flashed to 64. But the regular M1 blew it away in FCPX. I'm curious on powerful hardware how well FCPX could run🤔
Yeah i’ve yet to properly test FCPX!!!
Seems like OpenCore makes hackontoshes a lot less of a mine field.
It’s a hackintosh revolution!
To be fair, these parts play very nicely with macOS.
It's really good, makes my machine run super smooth. Wonder about the viability of an Intel hack/Macintosh in 2024 with the proprietary chips though.
I just bought one with i7 8700 and 64gb ram for only $280 on eBay. I got an absolute steal on mine. Can't wait to build a hackintosh
That sounds fantastic!
Hope it all goes well!

Hmm that’s odd, does it happen in all programs?
What’s your other config?

@@yt_user1772 Yeah it’s definitely not normal. Any other weird visual artefacts or glitches otherwise?
@@QuinsTechCorner Nope. It's just the cursor for me

You should upload the USB contents, for us to copy and make a easy update to similar systems. Might get some donations, or suggest one!
That’s a good idea!
The issue, is it would only work for this exact machine (or machines with pretty much identical hardware).
man i tried making a hackintosh before, and i definitely will try again once i get my new parts but sometimes hackintosh can be a pain to setup, also love the rift, i believe it's from dark? no?
Yea they can be very time consuming. Given the right parts, they’re OK.
Yep, it was from dark!! Well recognised!
i have a big sur hackintosh, but im scared to update it to somona, how do i do that safely, and alao whats the process to do so
Hey!
So I have a Ventura hackintosh…. and I’m scared too.

I almost bought that exact machine for this project!
If you follow the open core guide you should have a good experience. :-)

@@LetrixAR Nice! Glad to hear you've got it working. A home server is definitely a good use for it!
Have you tried hackintosh as a vm on a hypervisor?? How does this process compare???
I haven’t tried, but would be interested to. Will check it out.
My experience with hackintosh is sound only working once and camera never working but thats probably because i use a laptop and they have more specific drivers and all that
Yep, that’s pretty typical.
Using proper drivers and open core helps a lot.
Could a Chinese graphic card be used for this Hackintosh project? it work?
It depends what type of graphics card?
Do you have a model number?
Would love to see Sonoma installed.
Challenge accepted, but Im not sure how it will go 😂
Can you test Davinci Resolve on this machine?
Hey,
Sorry for the (long!) delay in getting back to you. I’ll put it in the video ideas bucket! I’m not sure how Resolve uses system resources, but I imagine it would run as well as a mid range late model intel mac.

I’m trying to hackintosh a t480
Sounds good!
All the best of luck with it.
And best of all you have enough USB ports😊
Yessssss!!!!
I was very much interested in hackintosh until m1 came and i knew it will be more hassle and will die soon. Now i just run linux with macos and windows kvm.😂
Yeah it’s a strange time to have a hackintosh for sure.
Sounds like you’ve got a good setup though!
use a i7 10700k
That would definitely work!… but it’s the wrong socket type for this machine unfortunately.
