I'm interested in dual booting OS X on my machine, wanted to know what's the easiest way (or hard way) to go about it?

My motherboard is a Z270K and CPU is an i7 6700K.

Found this article, will I need something more?

Installation is really easy. Post Installation its where it gets tricky.

REALLY look at the details of your motherboard . Find out the exact Ethernet and Audio Drivers you need.

Can get a bit tricky but it shouldn't be a problem with your motherboard and cpu.
>>
>>59416482

if you don't have a copy of sierra right now start up a VM and download a legit version from the AppStore

Use some torrented version for the DM or something.
>>
>>59416482
Thanks, I'm going to give it a go with Unibeast and it looked like the post install is where it gets murky. I was thinking my mobo isn't that rare so I thought someone must've done it in the community
>>
>>59416499
I was thinking of El Capitan, would Sierra be better? I sold my mid 2015 Macbook Pro and that's the last OS X version I had
>>
>>59416515

im running Sierra on a 2012 intel based machine. 3570k and gigabyte ud3h z77

Don't see why Sierra would be an issue for you
>>
>>59416545
Are you having any issues with drivers?
>>
>>59416578

i had issue with my sound drivers and had to fuck around with it for a while

anything else pretty much worked instantly
>>
is sierra still os x, even though they went back to calling it macOS?
>>
>>59416714
I noticed that in the forum threads, some people on a similar mobo as mine having sound issues so I'll fuck with that later.

Should I have a problem with a GTX 1050?
>>
>>59416734

>Should I have a problem with a GTX 1050?

don't think so .. ready the forum there are threads on NVIDIA GPUs. I think only AMD GPUs have problems.
>>
>>59416734
>Should I have a problem with a GTX 1050?
Yes, Pascal is not supported
>>
>>59416782

oh shit!
>>
>>59416782
well shit i guess i'll have to virtualize it
>>
>>59416732
Pretty much.

>>59416845
Just use intel gpu until it supports pascal lad.
>>
>>59416845
The HD530 of your 6700k is natively supported though, just use that.
>>
>>59416867
Okay, so just enable the iGPU in bios and follow the guides?
>>
>>59416900
Yep, and set the iGPU as the default if you have that option

Will Logic Pro X, Final Cut Pro X and so on work on Hackintosh or VM.
>>
>>59417263

hackintosh is just a fancy name for running macOS on non Apple Hardware

yes it will work even in a VM but i dont like the performace of it in a VM.
>>
>>59416734
don't use on board sound on a hackintosh. just get a usb soundcard or amp/dac, works plug & play.
>>
about to start the install
>>
>>59416462
can someone give links on how to get the proper iso for mountain lion in order to DL sierra?

piratebay is blocked in my country
>>
>>59417263
Every application that runs on macOS runs on Hackintosh.

There may be some fixing to do specifically for messages and facetime, but that's it. Those two.

Does Wine staging work well with OSX?
ALSO, when am I going to need keys above F12 when using OSX?
Do other file managers solve the problem of merging folders with the same name or I should just solve it by downloading the finder add on?
>>
>>59420523
Wine now supports 64 bit Windows applications in OSX

There's no need for more keys, normal keyboards work. It's in case you want to add shortcuts and shit.

The merging folder shit though, I'm not so sure about. Finder is a really good file manager with just that big flaw.
>>
>>59420664
Ok so, I got a gigabyte H61M-S2PH board that I couldn't find a single fucking thread on tony's website (only one where a guy asks if anyone tried to install mountain lion on it and got 0 replies). I used to have a asus P8B75MLX (that according to multiple threads is compatible) but 2 capacitors (one next to the CPU fan power pins and the other close to the power button pins) got damaged so It's pretty much useless now. I wonder if my gigabyte motherboard is compatible since people were able to install 10.8 no problem on similar motherboards like the H61MS2 PV

Generally speaking over versions if there's good support for a piece of hardware, that will work with every version afterwards unless we're talking about something that needs heavy patching for some random reason.

What I mean is, if some AMD GPU worked like ass on 10.9, then worked ok in 10.10, would work great on 10.11 and work the same on 10.12. If that board works good on 10.8, it will most likely work well on 10.12. Look for support on the chipset rather than the specific motherboard.

buying Apple "tech" != finding workarounds for your non-retarded hardware to run a interesting and at the same time user-friendly OS.

Piece of cake. Just don't install updates. Ever.
>>
>>59416462
Seriously, the day Apple releases Mac OS for use on any computer is going to be the day I buy it and never look back.

I sure Tim Cook weeps at night because of people like you.
Apple makes its money out of selling its hardware. The OS is free. Untying the OS from the hardware would hand the whole PC market over to Microsoft who would then have nothing to copy (badly).
Apple tried this once and it was a disaster and that was while they were still on PPC hardware.
>>
>>59421479
>PPC
yeah well that was the biggest mistake ein apple's history. Anyways. I'd be fine with paying $300 for Mac OS with proper driver support for all my hardware
>>
>>59421479
>OSX is free
Wrong. Are you blind? do you live under a rock? Apple sells OSX server installation disks.
Not only that, the price of every Apple hardware includes their exclusive software bult in.
>>
>>59421479
Yeah I'm sure he does, while selling 2 iPhones a second.

hackintosh just werks

if i had the money i'd put together some ultimate BEAST pc that BTFO everything apple ever offers

like their fully specced macPros or smth for 10k lol

Do you ever post different images or make different arguments? Every single Apple thread you post the exact same shit like it's going to change anyones mind, and then respond to everything with >t.mactoddler. All you do is make Linux users look like autistic man children who can't come up with their own arguments, and just repost the same images
