It's a great video,thanks for that,man.....😍. But as one of your subscriber i have a request to make . In one of your prior videos you said that it is possible to switch between distros without breaking the existing installation. And you also mentioned that it is possible to switch even file managers . So if you make a video(long or short your call 😇) which covers both these topics then it will be very helpful for all of us( especially for new users like me). And as always love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩😃.

[@louiemorais9570]

Installing MacOS with VMWare: like frying an egg. Installing MacOS with Opencore: like manufacturing the pan, refining the cooking oil, then raising the chickens to lay the egg before frying it. Update: only to discover that the egg can only be fried in a very specific set of pans and just with a certain kind of oil.

[@justsomerandompersononthei2595]

Only to find out that there's a better way to fry the egg (opencore or kext update) or your pan breaks (Mac OS version lost support and needs to upgrade), and you have to do it all over again. But it's slightly easier to do it as you now know how to make the pan and refine the cooking oil.

[@louiemorais9570]

@Vek Why does a knife cost $9999 more than another? There is no mention of the benefits and reasons for using OpenCore over VMWare neither in this video nor in the OpenCore website. Benefits have been hinted by Just some random... above when he wrote that with OpenCore apparently, one doesn't lose support and can upgrade the OS, which in my eyes starts to make a very good case for OpenCore and why so much work is required to set it up. I am really looking forward to seeing OpenCore finding a way to get it to work with Nvidia cards and most laptops' WIFi cards. Now that I know, it seems a really great solution but with a very limited scope of use for the many of us with certain hardware configurations. I hope someone finds the time to perhaps mash up OpenCore with Clover/VMWare and maintain OpenCore's machine-level integration with a machine's compatible hardware whilst using Clover/VMWare-like emulation where that machine's hardware is not compatible. I hope this is even possible because if it is it will be really cool.

Awesome video, one of the few video adaptations of my guides I quite enjoy! Few things I wanted to mention: - Nvidia's Kepler is still supported even in macOS 11 Big Sur - I211 should use Smalltree, not IntelMaussi - Would like if you explained why you used the SSDTs, cause you just slammed through without explaining why you need them. Other platforms need very specific SSDTs not created by SSDTTime - Prebuilt SSDTs are slow for boot, but fine once booted - You only need to do clean snapshot, no need to run regular snapshot before - You do not need a device-id for HD 4600, only for the 4400 Besides that, seriously great video! I appreciate you going through and explaining everything, I know some people are pretty visual so they'll love this. Might even add it to the front page of the desktop guide for users

Great tutorial. I actually ran through this entire process myself a few weeks ago for my 3800X and i was interested in seeing how it differs between the two. The answer is barely, I had a few more kexts that you and it seemed like a fair few more edits to make in the config.plist but the basic premise was identical. Just one point of advice, when formatting a drive for Catalina you should use APFS and not Journaled since the OS will just convert the Journaled FS to APFS after you finish installing anyway. It saves a step later. I believe if you're installing anything older than Catalina you do need to use Journaled FS.

[@opemilekanadesunloye]

Idk why I'm watching this. I already built my Hackintosh.

[@malaybansal783]

does it improves your device's overall performance or is it the same with just mac os in it?

[@opemilekanadesunloye]

@@malaybansal783 It's just your system with MacOS. If you want to improve performance install a Linux distro.

[@balogunakanbi6329]

Did you use opencore or a VM?

[@opemilekanadesunloye]

@@balogunakanbi6329 I used OpenCore

[@kenshin7440]

So informative with all the details needed. result you can't stuck at all Thx a lot CTT awesome as always

[@NeilOosthuizen]

See this two days after I requested a Mac for my going away present from my company... oh well :p

[@justsomerandompersononthei2595]

At least you didn't have to go through the hassle of doing this.

[@NeilOosthuizen]

@@justsomerandompersononthei2595 yeah but in the end I had to sell the Mac to get something useful 😝

[@radomirlilic2472]

This was the best tutorial I encountered though sometimes it was to fast to follow but it was the best! I tried for the first time to do a hackintosh and followed this tutorial and it was success with only one thing that did not work and it was audio... I guess I have to learn how to do after build modifications now. I used Lenovo M93p Tiny for this and the only thing that does not work is wifi (but I had spare usb wifi adapter that worked) and audio (still do not work) since I do not know how to fix this. Keep doing great work!!!

[@Speccy48k]

Nice video, thanks. Followed the OpenCore guide for AMD Ryzen: works great!! However, waking up from sleep would not work (black screen) Using AMD Radeon 5700 XT: any ideas please?

[@terrillcockeram8472]

I have yet seen anyone get sleep working on a ryzen. Most just disable sleep.

[@ChrisTitusTech]

I haven't seen this on my system. I have a Vega 64, but I have noticed the occasional sleep issue. I generally just let my monitor sleep and either turn my system off or leave it running.

[@Speccy48k]

Chris Titus Tech > the issue also occurs when the monitor goes to sleep (black screen and never wake up even if macOS is still running). Not an option for me I’m afraid to leave the Hackintosh up and running at all times. Should I need an additional kext or change a config.plist parameter?

[@erperejildo]

14:33 I have 2 EFI folders on that zip. One is IA32, the other one X64. Which one should I take?

[@rodellol.5349]

can you develop ios apps after you install macos this way?

[@outrowender]

I do apps in this way

[@claudiogalleguillos4907]

@@outrowender with xcode?

[@jrblues]

Yes you can build and deploy from a hackintosh

[@outrowender]

@@claudiogalleguillos4907 yes. Build and deploy on Apple store

[@ayoubatba9507]

Good stuff I followed the guide and it was awesome :D

[@alphamineron]

Sad thing is that this isn't not at all the best way to run macOS on "any PC" as clearly it has hardware limitations. A video that Linus did way back which used qemu to emulated macOS on Arch Linux still feels to be the best way to run macOS on "any PC"... Just information for people who might not be in a financial position to purchase new stuff around this time of events. Note: Not suitable for tasks such as Audio Editing due to the large latency introduced by the emulation process.

[@Yash-qs8iu]

Emulated macOS add lot of latency. Like I make music and I wouldn't be able to work on that just cuz of audio latency. There's really no way to emulate that full macOS experience, untill and unless you can replace your motherboard's firmware with a macOS compatible custom firmware which is something a project named Ozmosis did but that was discontinued because it didn't get enough attention by the hackintosh community.

[@arnavodkaa]

@@Yash-qs8iu Ozmosis was too good for its time. I wish it comes back.

[@alphamineron]

YourGamesGuide Official does OpenCore method as shown in the above video, not introduce any major latency?

[@billy_b8958]

This is the only Guide that works for me. Thanks a lot!

[@ehretnicolas3170]

Great video thank you ! I'm not using hackintosh anymore on real pc but on VM (kvm) with opencore and Gpu passthrough for acceleration and everything is working great ! Like you said Opencore is really a great macos project very clean and well documented ! One of the best I've seen in hackintosh world !

[@CarlosMartinezTech]

Thank you! I was able to do it. It works great!

I see a guy who installed a Hackintosh on full NVIDIA PC, so it's possible. I'm not sure but I think it was a GTX 1060, I7 6700

[@AngryPacman222]

Nvidia requires older macOS, on newer version it will not work - no driver support, middle finger from Apple.

[@ForrestRhoads]

I found this nearly impossible to follow

[@Klffsj]

It definitely requires some intermediate to advanced tech knowledge if you're trying to make sense of it. If you follow this as a step-for-step walkthrough, along with the listed website, you should be able to follow the instructions with minimal difficulty.

[@piotr803]

Your sir have just created a phenomenal guide. Well donsies!
