Intel CPUs with compatible chipsets and supported AMD GPUs are typically best for Hackintosh. Hardware compatibility is critical for stability and performance.

OpenCore is a modern bootloader used to boot macOS on non-Apple hardware. It provides better compatibility, security, and system stability than older bootloaders.

Hackintosh supports both Intel and AMD processors, although Intel systems generally offer broader compatibility and easier configuration.
