Hi all,

I'm currently getting the parts for my first hackintosh (second desktop computer assembly). It'll feature an i5-8400, gigabyte Rx 580 8gb gaming, 16gb 2666mhz ram, one SSD, and one PCI express WiFi card.

My go-to forum for pc builds doesn't really focus on hackintoshs. I was planning on getting an MSI Z370-A Pro mainboard for around 100 €, but a few people said they don't understand why I need that chipset.

Can you recommend any cheaper, compatible mainboards? Or is the Z/h370 basically the thing to go with with hackintosh?

Thanks a million!

Best,
