How to Fix New Hackintosh
This mini-guide provides a structural approach to troubleshoot and fix the issue.
Prerequisites
- Confirm your hardware specifications (CPU, GPU, Motherboard).
- Ensure you have a bootable recovery USB and backup your EFI.
Fix Steps
- Check if your GPU requires WhateverGreen or specific boot-args (e.g., agdpmod=pikera).
- Ensure Metal acceleration is fully supported for your macOS version.
- Update Lilu and WhateverGreen to the latest versions.
Verification
- Reboot and verify if the functionality is restored and stable under typical usage.
Original Question:
Hi Subreddit :)
Since my wife could use my old hacky - thats a 8700k, z270-A, 32 GB DDR4-300
I'll probably keep my graphic cards (Radeon 6800 and RX560 for Hackintosh)
Requirements are:
- Fully running Xcode and other Devtools (I'm mainly working as iOS Dev, Watch-Sim is not a strict requirement)
- decent gaming performance
I guess my best options right now would be a Z490 board with something between a 10700k and a 10900, while keeping my graphic card and probably buying new RAM.
What do you think? Or would you just "f*** it" and go with a Ryzentosh and live with the few problems/restrictions that come with that?
Thanks for thoughts/inputs :)
