Currently have iMac 5k 2015, looking to build a hackintosh for gaming and iOS development

[thelevitatinghorse]

I've had my 2015 iMac 5k for a couple years now, and everything has been great. I absolutely love the screen, however I've recently been getting into gaming, and found that the iMac simply doesn't deliver what I need from it. On the other hand, I also develop in Xcode a lot, and in general really enjoy using macOS for tasks other than gaming. I considered buying a 2010-12 Mac Pro and putting a decent GPU in it, but the outdated IO and the volume of the fans will be too much for me to handle. Therefore, I think I'm going to build a hackintosh, but I'm not sure whether to go with intel or risen (ryzen is cheaper, more value, but worse support in macOS), or even what other components to buy for around £1000 ($1300). Any help would be appreciated

We don't offer any support for Ryzen hacks here. You'd need to go elsewhere if you want to try that.
