Hi, ​ I currently have a Mac Pro Early 2009 (specs -> image + 256 Samsung Pro SSD). Because the Mac is really consuming a lot of power, I would like to change it to a more energy efficient solution. The Mac is mainly used for a Plex Media Server, which does a lot of video transcoding and is on most of the day (if more power efficient maybe 24/7). Is it possible to get a Hackintosh which is suited for transcoding multiple 1080p streams (would prefer hardware transcoding if possible) and 24/7 use, with a dual LAN and enough memory (preferably 16GB+) for less money than the 2018 Mac Mini? The Mac/hackintosh will be used headless so I don't know if a GPU is needed? Does a GPU help in hardware-transcoding? I that case, what GPU would be a good option? ​ Thanks in advance :) Regards, Patrick https://i.redd.it/4e7qan56zf721.png submitted by /u/Patrick161019 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Hello! I'm new to the Hackintosh community so I need some help with installing macOS on this PC. I always wanted to try macOS so I decided to start research on installing a copy of Sierra (when it still was new) on my HP PC. However all the tutorials or forum posts were either wrong or weren't directly made for my model of computer so I'm gonna ask for some help right here. What do I have to do to get started with using macOS Mojave on my PC? ​ My specs are following: Processor: Intel Core i5-8400 @2.8GHz (six physical cores, not hyper-threaded; turbo boost enabled) RAM: 8GB DDR4 (idk if the speed is necessary) GPU: NVIDIA GTX1050 If more information is needed I will submit it. ​ Thanks for the help! submitted by /u/_simplehowl_ [link] [comments] [► Source]

Hi there! I was working to turn my laptop into a Hackintosh and I have followed the tutorial you've realized on Reddit. I have the bootable USB key with Clover and every requiered .kext on the folder "Other", as it sould be. The laptop is a HP Elitebook 2570p, with a i7-3520M and a HD4000, 6 GB of RAM. When I put the key on the laptop, it boot with Clover, then I start the install and there is a lot of sentence written on the screen, I see a lot of failure during injection of the .kext, so the mouse and the keyboard wont work, despite I see that this laptop is fully compatible with macOS with its required .kext. I had even tryed to install macOS, but I can't boot: it is sayed that I need to reboot. Could you help me? Thanks! submitted by /u/Denios5 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Pretty self explanatory really. I love the idea of having macOS Mojave running on the gorgeous thin display. If someone’s got it running well, could you tell me which guides you used to get it working? I’d also be interesting in knowing what doesn’t work.

I just wanted to post here because I had to figure this one out on my own, and hopefully this can help others. TL;DR at the end Background I have had a BenQ PD3200U for a while. I got it second hand, and it was manufactured in week 38 of 2017. My only issue was the USB ports losing power/connection whenever the monitor went to sleep. This was fixed when I sent it back to BenQ for the latest firmware. At the same time I got my second PD3200U, manufactured week 29 of 2018, and it has no problems whatsoever. Once I got the older one back with the firmware fix, I noticed I didn't support Night Shift any more. And I wasn't really looking forward to sending it back for that reason. Diagnosis I figured out that Night Shift was disabled due to macOS detecting the old monitor as a Television (in System Information). This was also apparent from the Overscan slider in the Displays pane in System Preferences. After using DarwinDumper to get the EDID data for both displays I found out...

Here is my setup specifications: - HP 8300 -i7 3770 - GTX 1050ti - Clover Bootloader, High Sierra 10.13.5 ​ I updated to Mojave and my GTX 1050ti didn't like it, so I booted into the recovery disk through clover and restored my system to a 10.13.5 time machine backup. After that, I had to switch my drivers setting to nvidia's web drivers instead of mac drivers for nvidia, and then when I restarted for the changes to take effect, the recovery partition was missing from the boot screen. Can anyone let me know how to make it show up again? I want to make sure that I can use it if I need to. Thanks in advance! submitted by /u/Loaf32 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Hello, like a freaking idiot I accidentally installed clover on my main mac. Luckily, I guess it created an EFI backup in the root directory, so I copied that into disk0s1 and now it looks like this: https://imgur.com/a/AuXdq84 . Can someone on Mojave 10.14.2 confirm that is right? If it makes a difference it's a 2017 MacBook Pro. Computer restarts just fine, but I'm scared to perform a full shutdown and then power on. So please someone let me know. If it's wrong, can someone upload the correct contents? submitted by /u/MacStation [link] [comments] [► Source]

I suspect the dGPU not being properly disabled is preventing my laptop from completely shutting down and sleeping properly. Other than that, everything else works fine. I am trying to disable the dGPU on boot, re-enable it before sleeping and disable it on wake.

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?

Hello!

I used VMWare to download what I believe is 10.13.6 using DosDude's High Sierra Patcher , then created an MBR USB in Terminal using RehabMan's instructions . I used the same instructions to create the Clover Bootloader and used the kexts and config file as well.

I finished my Sierra build early this morning, but it’s useless without Wifi. Issue is, every USB dongle I have is incompatible and I don’t have any PCI solutions. I’m not allowed to use ethernet (my dad is hyper controlling). There will probably be a 5$ activation fee when I get the visa card. I’d prefer PCI, but if it must be a USB dongle so be it. People on the insanelymac discord server told me that Apple Airports are good but I have no clue what to look for (I’ve seen them on eBay from 20$ - 140$- mostly around 20$-40$).

I am currently running a Surface Pro 6, i7 processor, 16 gb ram with an intel UHD Graphics 620 card. I am trying to either dual boot or virtual machine run Mac OS. I am using VMWorkstation Pro to run a virtual Mac OS high Sierra, with VMTools and beam off both installed. The system runs but is very laggy and kind of jumpy. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this issue. Ideally I would like to run a dual boot system, but I don’t mind a virtual machine if it runs better than it is running now. I was reading up on it and it seemed like it might be a hardware acceleration issue, but I am not sure I fully understand what that means except that maybe the virtual machine is not performing hardware acceleration for the guest OS.

So I am part picking to build my Hackintosh and I have a clearance question, hopefully someone can help me. I plan on switching the onboard Intel wifi card with the BCM94360CS2 and M.2 adapter so I can have continuity and airdrop working OOB and Switching out the card is easy. The problem is that the fan that I'm going to be using is the Noctua NH-L12 (without the top fan) and The clearance from the motherboard to the heatsink is about 43mm so I wanted to know if after I install the wifi card I will have enough clearance with the CPU fan and the Wifi card.
