Just booted my first Hackintosh build on my gaming PC, dual-booting with Windows 10. Seems to run well so far, except for a couple relatively minor issues.
Specs first: Intel Core I5-7600K running on an MSI Z270A Pro motherboard, 16 GB Patriot DDR4-3000 RAM (dual-channel), Windows 10 installed on a 500 GB Samsung 850 Evo SSD and macOS Mojave installed on a 1 TB WD Blue drive. I have a 23 in. Acer monitor connected via DVI to the onboard Intel HD630 and a Benq XL2430T connected via DisplayPort to an ASUS Strix Radeon R9 380 4GB card.
I get flickering on one of my displays (the Benq) when running Firefox on it. Haven't tried any other apps yet, since I only just completed the install. Firefox seems to run smooth on the HD630, though. I also noticed that in System Information, my R9 380 is detected as an R9 285. Seems like the screen only flickers if I set it to run at 144 Hz.
I also noticed that about every 10 minutes or so, my Blu-ray drive makes noise, like if it's trying to read a disc. I can tolerate this one when using the computer since I usually have headphones on anyways, but I'm just curious about if that's a fixable issue.
I'll continue looking to see if I can figure out the flickering issue and look forward to more fun with my new Hackintosh!
