Hackintosh Guide with Clover Bootloader on Serie 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

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.

Used new dsdt and injected audio 3 through clover , but problem still exists.

Audio is fine when playing from internal speakers , and is fine when connecting to external speakers.

But when I connect earphones sound gets distorted as I said before , check with another set of earphones still there.

Any solution?

U need test all layout-ids for ur codec, one by one

Após várias tentativas consegui configurar a HD 3000, agora está funcionando quase tudo, só está faltando gravar nas partições NTFS e outra coisa é que não estou conseguindo configurar o BIOS para bootar no HD do Mac, nas opções com F11 aparece o HD (PO: SAMSUNG HD502HJ), mas na configuração de boot no BIOS aparecem MAC OS X e vários UEFI OS, mas todos entram no HD do Windows, como faço para remover essas entradas das opções de boot e configurar a certa?

Desde já agradeço.
