I am now more convinced than ever that hackintoshing is not worth

I am now more convinced than ever that hackintoshing is not worth it at all

oh did you say you have nvidia graphics? Hope they are from a few years ago or its 8 megs of vram for you cause the driver doesnt regognize much of anything past the 900 series

Oh but you have an intel integrated graphics chip? Oh that might be somewhat compatable but you will have odd glitches and ince again only 7 megs of vram so enjoy getting animations to work at all

I had less irritation installing gentoo the first time why do you do this to yourselves?

>mad at new hardware because (os) doesn't support new hardware
????
>>
>>60203014
Im mad at hackintosh not my hardware
>>
>>60203014
wait that didn't even make sense though but you probably get what I mean
The OS simply doesn't support new shit, so why does that make hackintoshing any worse than the platform itself? The reason it doesn't support new shit is because it was never made around new shit. Doesn't that just make OS X and Apple computers bad in general?
>>
>>60203028
yes, but why are you mad at hackintoshing?
>I want to build a mac but hackintoshing sucks because my hardware is better than anything in a mac
>>
>>60203029
No it makes hackintoshing bad in general
>>
>>60203045
How
>>
>>60203039
Because i wanted to play with macos for a while but it seems like a task for the kind of person who does not value his time
>>60203050
Because they talk it up like anyone could do it but its simply not true
>>
>>60203075
Anyone who has hardware that OS X likes can do it. You have hardware that OS X does not like. If you somehow put that hardware in a real mac, it wouldn't work either. So how does that make hackintoshing bad?
>>
>>60202938
the new Nvidia drivers support the 10xx cards u baka
lol @ choosing ur os based on video games though
>>
>>60203095
Because the intel graphics i have is meant to have support but following the instructions fixes nothing

>>60203109
Then why didnt they support my 1070 at all?
>>

>>60203186

>>60203233
clover just worked™

>>60203251
So maybeing when i get done with this install ill try that after swapping back to the card

Just buy an iMac, and if you still want to play gaems get a playstation or whatever. No need to fuck around with kexts or use Linux/Windows.

I'm still slumming it on my shitty pc, waiting for the rumored 8k iMac to be released, hopefully soon though

Not the most smooth experience but it was worth it, could do it again in alot less time than the first time

what the status with AMD hackintosh?
haven't looked into it in years
>>
So update it fucking worked and now looks glorious
>>
>>60204065
It "works" that is about it, I mean it's all x86 code
Apple's kernel is pretty much compiled and made for intel and everything expects intel, it can be done but its not really worth it DESU.
Unless Apple goes for Ryzen CPUs in the future, AMD hackintoshes will forever be non-optimal

You're an idiot.

I've been hackintoshing for 2 years on a production machine and everything works 100%.

Excited to put in a 1080Ti with the new nVidia drivers.

Maybe you should kys before spouting bullshit.
>>
>>60204157
4can is fucking with me, wrote "T B H" (without spaces) and it changes it to DESU. wtf?
>>
>>60204195
do you mean the direction? there's a setting somewhere
or the acceleration?
>>
>>60204203
i actually got it working now and i am happy

>OS doesnt support new hardware

why would anyone do this to themself?

Don't use Tonymacfag tools.

Google "Vanilla Hackintosh Method". It takes extra time but once you set it up, updates work perfectly.

Tonymacfag shit modifies system files, Vanilla method loads kexts from the EFI partition, and it's a cleaner way of doing things.

Once you figure it out, it's totally worth it.

It's definitely not for n00bs, you need to have some computer knowledge, unlike the OP.
>>
>>60204279
did you even read the thread
he didn't have Nvidia drivers
>>
>>60204289
No i didnt read because this thread is bullshit. How the fuck can you not know nVidia released Pascal drivers for an UNSUPPORTED Operating System like a week ago and the news was everywhere.
>>
>>60204279
actually i just updated it and it was fine

OS X supports almost no hardware, you have to build the computer specific to what runs.
