Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: Does Hackintosh support Intel and AMD processors?

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

Q: Can macOS run faster on Hackintosh than on a Mac?

In some cases, high-end Hackintosh hardware can outperform older Macs, but performance depends on hardware choice, configuration quality, and macOS compatibility.

Hi to everyone, my name is Alexis im from Argentina.

When i try to install Catalina my computer reboot in the middle of verbose process (Photo taken in monitor previous to reboot).

I try different Bios configs, unplugging other disks, updating Bios firmware, nothing seems to work

The only thing i can't prob is change my monitor (vga) for a dvi or hdmi one

My Computer specs:

Motherboard: Asus PRIME B365M-A

Processor: Intel Core i3-8100 CPU @ 3.60GHz × 4

Graphics: Intel 630 Integrated

RAM: 2 x 8GB Kingston DDR4 Hyper X Fury

Any idea?

Try to start your system with -igfxvesa or stand in your bios, if the recommended options are correct. Up-to-date BIOS is a good idea, and also check for a suitable membership for your hardware.

After try various kind of EFI folders I found one (OpenCore) for my config but only can boot Catalina with "-igfxvesa" (no acceleration graphics)

If I don't use that arg value the monitor puts in sleep mode. I try in vga and dvi port (with adapter) with same result.

Some ideas?
