been ghosting this sub for a while. First timer here, I am seeking a daily driver, coming from a 2011 Macbook pro i7, 2.0Ghz failed GPU.
I have my eyes on a x220 i5 2.6Ghz with IPS screen. A few things I need clarification on:
- Performance: how will it perform on hackintosh (how similar to my old macbook) on daily tasks, email, chrome,...etc?)
- Graphics: I am a bit concerned here.. In the end, I want to have two external displays (x220 screen off) and be able to run some simulations (simulations run heavy on GPU) (My macbook struggled with this). How will an x220 handle this, am i better off looking at the x230?
From this thread and the other hackintosh fourms, i see this machine is stable with hackintosh, if you have experiences please share: stable as in daily driver. This fits my budget of under $200. Am I getting a good deal with this x220 priced at $160. I am going to upgrade to ssd and probably have another ssd in the miniPCI. Thanks guys.
**I am posting this in r/thinkpad as well.
