Hackintosh In 2023!? | i9-9900K, 6900XT, 64 GB DDR4, GIGABYTE Z390M Gaming X 2019 Build Update!

[@Spoolingturbo6]

I don't know how I am just now discovering your channel, and this video. But I wanted to leave a comment, and let you know that I appreciate you & this video. It has been a struggle to get the Asus Z790 TUF Wi-Fi D4 MoBo . I'm up and running now, mom things working. I too was met with the same keyboard warriors on Reddit .. Quickly realized, I'm on my own. Checking out your other vids after this one! Respect ! I'm on a Asus z790 Tuf, i9 12900k, ddr4 3600, Vega 64. from a MacPro 5,1 I kept alive for way too long. next upgrade will be a 32gb Radeon .

[@GeekShhh]

Glad you liked it and very nice set up! Thanks for watching

[@matthazard]

Thanks for running through your experience. I’ve done the same thing slowly upgrading my hackintosh all the way out. I’m running Monterey on an opencore iMac20,2, 10850k, gigabyte vision g, 128gb 3200 ddr4, wd sn850x 2tb, sapphire 6800xt nitro+ se, titan ridge TB3 card, fenvi Wi-Fi BT card. It absolutely plows through anything I put in front of it. The 6800xt is by far the best bang for the buck metal monster, I score 185k for geekbench metal, and out render all the apple silicon machines in blender. I also have a 16” m1 max 24 core gpu. It is very comparable to the hack for all cpu workloads and can be better for video encoding if I use prores of h.264. But all the ram, storage and 6800xt mean I’ll probably have this hack for a couple more years. And then just run windows and get an nvidia card for 3d.

[@GeekShhh]

Very nice....thanks for watching

[@TechDunk]

Can you use xcode on it?

[@ryzen7428]

Perfect video ... i'm going to buy the macstudio or mini when hackintosh die, but at the time... i'm really happy with my powerful hackintosh for 1/4 the price of a mac pro.

[@GeekShhh]

Indeed, thanks so much for watching and commenting!

[@blurpixelx]

Great commentary my man! Love the energy and the break down of Clov and OC. I personally don't see a performance increase when i switched to OC. If anything, clover is more user friendly to get something up and running. With that said, I am OC gang only because I know my way around the tech world and I think the community aims to make OC more future proof for new MacOS' coming out. I believe it's a lighter file structure too. That's my impression at least. Nevertheless, I subscribed! Great stuff. Shhh'in baby.

[@GeekShhh]

Nice! Thanks for the compliment and watching...

[@DynamicRockers]

Excellent video! You answered all my questions. Still not convinced about the base M2, but the new M2pro 19cores GPU seems incredible for a 2000$ budget.

[@GeekShhh]

I agree, but watch out for external drives disconnecting constantly.

[@samyosef]

I enjoyed that cheers and happy new year 🎉

[@GeekShhh]

Happy New Year to you too! Thanks for watching

[@jeffyowell]

Very nice work. I am a Hackintosher with a Lenovo Y50-70. I enjoy your presentation style. Oh, and I am also a proud Clover user!!

[@sashimbo]

Wonderful vid keep it going brother ❤

[@GeekShhh]

Thanks for watching!

[@beazy002]

Just used OpenCore for the the first time the other day. built the EFI mounted it to my surprise Ventura worked the first time from audio to airdrop. my clover set up was an absolute nightmare for me to keep running. so annoying that I haven't upgraded anything since early 2020.

[@2danshepherd]

Great info and funny shhh!

[@xlr555usa]

I picked up an i5 13600K and I'm looking into getting Monterey running as a Hackintosh system. Testing first on a MSI mobo and may switch to Gigabyte if I hit roadblocks. 12th gen Intel Hackintosh are in the wild somewhere... Here's to 13th gen! Further, Faster, Farther.

[@GeekShhh]

Very Nice....Thanks for watching

[@kevinpitts3548]

It would nice to see or hear the difference between the two systems. Also, I would like to see the difference in video editing render times between the two. (Same video of course) I had a very nice pc that i pieced together over a year. AMD 5600, 6600xt (power color of course!) 32gigs of ram. I ended up selling to a friend for his kids gaming pc. Then i bought a Mac Mini M2 Pro 16gig. A refurbished unit. Its just not the same. I am feeling disappointed in it. I want to build a hackintosh but I am torn between 10th gen hackintosh, a 13th gen hackintosh, or just get a studio being thay it'll come with 32gigs of ram. I am starting to do a lot more video editing, but i still use affinity photo and chrome. I have used 14 of the 16gigs of ram on the mini with 14 tabs opened on chrome alone! I never had slow downs and i would have chrome (20 to 40 tabs open), affinity photo, and a video editor opened. Now i have to do one thing at a time on mini and have to wait longer for the programs to open up. I like mac OS, but I may have to go back to windows. Any help would be great! Thanks for the time, effort, and information you have provided!

[@GeekShhh]

Hey i plan on updating this video within the coming months and ive already did render times of the same video between my hack and a mac mini pro and a mac studio so look out for it. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@kevinpitts3548]

@@GeekShhh I haven't done anything yet, so the more info the better! Thanks again!

[@percyhenderson5543]

This is exactly the type of video and build I was looking for! The only other addition I'd make would be to install and run a Linux OS.

[@alfredbaxter1061]

thats nice i wouldn't mind getting this card but its so expensive its ridiculous

[@reganovich]

It's gotta be opencore boss!! Peace from Ireland bro

[@GeekShhh]

LoL #Clovergang .... thanks for watching

[@reganovich]

@@GeekShhh great vid man , sounds like you'll be getting into the Mac Studio in due course...I think I'll make.the jump too. But the hackintosh is still a great option cos of the great community...best of luck with everything man

[@musclesmouse]

why the hate? if the hack works you use it.

[@GeekShhh]

Exactly! Thanks for watching

[@iranouspolaris2035]

You awsome man, yeeahhh.

[@GeekShhh]

You are too.....thanks for watching..

[@merrq1]

Is the 6700/XT’s still not supported on mac?

[@GeekShhh]

They're not unfortunately but theres some programmers that created a driver for them. It has its limitations though! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@talldarkstrangerpr]

So how much are total parts for your Hackintosh?

[@GeekShhh]

Uhhhh im not sure, i purchased all over time, started small then gradually updated so maybe around 2500ish usd?

[@talldarkstrangerpr]

@@GeekShhh thanks for the info and the video. Quite informative. Just trying to see the cost benefit as well.

[@DynamicRockers]

@@talldarkstrangerpr the mini M2pro with GPU 19core and 32G ram is 2000$ in a mini form factor... not sure if the hackintosh is still worth it for a 100% macOS usage. As @Geek Shhh said, if you are using windows as well, gaming and/or mining go with the hackintosh it's a beast.

[@chebrubin]

Would you upgrade a Intel NUC hades canyon to a hacintosh? Seems like it is a identical to the Mac Mini 2018 Intel with a AMD GPU?

[@chebrubin]

?

[@Alperic27]

dead easy to do

[@NovvaOfficial]

I've been having major stability issues ever since I switched from my Radeon VII to my 6900XT. Any clues as to why?

[@GeekShhh]

Unfortunately i do not. I recently switch from using a Radeon VII for a month to a 6800 XT and didnt have any issues. Thanks for watching

[@raulalmendros]

Great video!!! Thanks. Do you know if RX 7900 XT will be compatibility with Hackintosh in 2023?

[@GeekShhh]

Not yet, but hopefully soon!

[@alimosbah]

6900XT & 6700XT are they supported or not !!

[@GeekShhh]

lol 6800, 6800/6900XT is supported and from my understanding 6600 xt is suppoted but the 6700 xt is not.....thanks for watching

[@lilrobert7897]

is it possible to hackintosh a 12th gen i 5 12400f with an rx6750xt? i am looking forward to build a computer for gaming but ireally love mac os , i am an apple user since i was born but i recognize that winfosw is better in some other cases, i would love to build my own pc . can you give some suggesion about the parts? i already told what cpu and gpu i would like to have , need blutoth and wifi and i need airdrop

[@lilrobert7897]

i would like to dualboot but i know i have to install macos first

[@GeekShhh]

From what i understand the 6700 series is not supported in Macos.....thanks for watching

[@THEISTT]

Is AMD 7900XT gpu can support hackintosh

[@GeekShhh]

Not yet, im gonna speak more about that on next video next week monday

[@rahulchandra152]

Ventura on 10900k and rx 6650xt

10 cores....very nice, thanks for watching!

[@LuisBelmontShow]

Really??? Debby Ryan on your video??

[@GeekShhh]

I had to google that name to know who you were referring to lol I just used the first gif that popped up. Thanks for watching!

[@shepardcoronel1980]

is there proton aviable for osx86 ?

[@Kintah]

no

[@Alperic27]

… dead wrong about m2 … it is in the end ‘a dud’ .. well .. i mean for anything other than utube vids

[@GeekShhh]

Thanks for watching, this video was done before the m2 was released. The 16 gpu core model will cost you way more than 1k and they didnt do a 24 core model.

[@chebrubin]

Who is still mining?

[@GeekShhh]

Me lol thanks for watching....
