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.

Hello i need help a machine that worked fine so far with High Sierra. The was a security update pending in mac OSX. After booting the user missed to use the install partition. then he updated KEXT and tried to update again. After another boot-up there were no more partitions visible in Clover. What is the right move to save this installation? Please let me know...

Unfortunately we have an issue that was / is frequent with the 2020 image of High Sierra / Also the old High Sierra Image from 2018 shows the same error:

'using 16384 buffer headers and 10240 cluster IO buffer headers'

Will try the Catalina image (Olarila) now to see if it still is the same issue (I guess it will be). Any recommendation how go forward? BIOS is Updated to Version 15B. It is a Gigabyte Z370 Aorus Gaming 7 OP (OP deactivated). It worked before without issue.

ok the Catalina disk seems to be working. I will post the requirement kexts in case everything goes well.
