What is a Hackintosh?

A Hackintosh is a non-Apple computer that runs macOS using compatible hardware and custom bootloaders such as OpenCore or Clover.

Is building a Hackintosh legal?

Installing macOS on non-Apple hardware violates Apple's macOS license agreement. It is generally used for educational and experimental purposes.

What hardware is best for Hackintosh?

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

What is OpenCore in Hackintosh?

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

Can Hackintosh be updated like a real Mac?

Hackintosh systems can be updated, but updates should be done carefully. Bootloader, kexts, and configuration files often need updates before installing new macOS versions.

Is Hackintosh suitable for professional work?

A properly configured Hackintosh can be stable enough for professional tasks such as software development, audio production, and video editing, depending on hardware compatibility.

Does Hackintosh support Intel and AMD processors?

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

Hackintosh Guide - El Capitan / Sierra / High Sierra / Mojave / Catalina on LGA 775 mobos with Clover Bootloader

cemito replied to MaLd0n's topic in Installation Guides

Are there any HD7750 users here? I have a strange bug with my Sapphire HD7750 1gb on Mojave. I am only able to boot into safe mode without graphics acceleration. When I use the boot arguments "-lilubetaall radpg=15", only a mouse cursor appears on the corner and it disappears from time to time. It is weird because my HD7750 even worked with my AMD FX processor with a kernel patch. Is there something specific about HD77xx series and LGA775 or do you think it is due to my current config?
