Hackintosh X99-TF + RX580

Q: What is a Hackintosh?

A non-Apple computer configured to run macOS using compatible PC hardware combined with a custom bootloader and configuration files to emulate a real Mac environment.

Q: Is building a Hackintosh legal?

Installing macOS on non-Apple hardware violates Apple’s End User License Agreement (EULA). It is generally not illegal for personal experimentation but not permitted for commercial use.

Q: What hardware is best for a Hackintosh?

The best hardware closely matches real Apple systems, with Intel CPUs (6th Gen to Core Ultra), AMD Radeon GPUs, compatible chipsets, and Intel-based Wi-Fi cards offering higher success rates.

Q: Can I build a Hackintosh with an AMD CPU?

Yes, macOS can run on AMD Ryzen CPUs using kernel patches, but Intel CPUs provide better native compatibility.

Q: What is OpenCore?

OpenCore is a modern Hackintosh bootloader that provides near-native macOS behavior and is the recommended bootloader for new installations.

Q: Is Clover still supported?

Yes, Clover is still supported but less recommended compared to OpenCore for modern systems.

Q: Which macOS versions support Hackintosh?

Hackintosh systems support macOS versions from Leopard up to recent releases, depending on hardware compatibility.

Q: Do NVIDIA graphics cards work on Hackintosh?

Only older NVIDIA GPUs work on older macOS versions; modern NVIDIA GPUs are incompatible with current macOS releases due to lack of driver support.

Q: What is an EFI folder?

The EFI folder contains the bootloader, drivers, kexts, and configuration files required to boot macOS on a Hackintosh.

Q: What are kexts?

Kexts (kernel extensions) are drivers that enable hardware functionality such as audio, Ethernet, USB, and graphics.

Olá,

Sempre tive o desejo de ter um Hackintosh, e recentemente montei um Setup x99, mas ainda tenho muita dificuldade em fazer funcionar.

Com essa EFI consegui dar boot e instalar, mas ficou bem lento, não reconheceu minha placa de vídeo.

Alguém tem a EFI para a X99-TF? Meu kit é exatamente esse, com uma RX580 e uma placa Wifi PCI AC 7260.

Se a sua placa de vídeo for a chinesa vai precisar de vbios de outra placa.

@MaLd0n minha placa de vídeo é do Aliexpress também. Desconheço o que você comentou. É algo que eu possa configurar?

Olá, meu setup continua o mesmo, porém agora adquiri uma placa de vídeo zotac rtx 3060 ti twin edge.

Saberia dizer qual MacOS roda nesse setup? Qual imagem posso baixar pra usar?
