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.

Não estou conseguindo habilitar a HD Graphics 3000 de jeito nenhum, então peguei uma ATI Radeon HD3850 de um PC encostado que tinha aqui. Sabem me dizer se é compatível?

Obrigado.

a intelhd3000 é nativa, vc não precisa de nada, flag nem nada, precisa daquele patch que te disse somente se não funcionar

a 3850 funcionava bem, usei durante muito tempo, a 4850 tb, teria de ver se ainda tem suporte, creio que sim

Pois então com a HD 3000 só entro com GraphicsEnabler=No (se não trava) e não consigo ativar a aceleração, coloquei o patch no DSDT.aml mas não adiantou.

Para usar a 3850 tenho que fazer algo expecífico, tem um kext, como consigo? Com ela, o boot trava na hora que iria aparecer a tela da maçã.

Obrigado.

Can anyone please help me ?

I'm going to install Mojave beta for first time, even tonight if we have a new release.

I need help with dsdt , ssdt and also whatever modification/optimisation for kexts and config.plist.

Things I' like have (but feel free to change whatever you think is for the best for my system) :

1) HDMI audio

3) Brightness control

4) Proper cpu/gpu power management is proper for my laptop

5) Usb Injection.

6) Everything that's gonna make my laptop work like a true Mac.

Send me MacBook-Pro.zip

Seems ok , except audio.

When listening to music with EarPods the sound is distorted , it hears like it comes from 2 different channels , to hear clearly the voice I have to move balance to upper right or left.

Also , can you check if everything else is right?

Thank you , sir.

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?
