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.

Hey,

I've been trying to set this up for a few days now and I just can't get my config to work... I've gone as far as to installing it using the recovery pkg method, but when I try to boot from disk it crashes with the attached message (It seems like a .txt file but rename it to .jpg and it'll open an image with the error I got using a capture card)

Anyone with a similar setup got a successful hackintosh I could use the EFI folder from, or something like that?

Tried both 15.1 with clover, 15.1 with OC, 15.2 with OC and the latter is the one that got me the furthest...

Thanks for any help

Hey, I tried using that image, and it actually had more problems than my vanilla config, but I used some kexts and the ACPI patches provided by the AMD-OSX community and it stopped at the same zone, completely crashing once the bar with the apple logo fills up, so I dunno what to do now
