    Asus Maximus XII Formula MotherBoard Not Recognizing Catalina USB Installer

    No, I gave up on trying to make a Hackintosh. I couldn't solve the problem above... but also I had a problem with the SecureBoot thing.

    Thats very similar to the build that I am attempting to do. I would love to know more of the details too. Unfortunately for me I cannot get my machine to see the MacOS Installer on my USB drive.

    << Solved >> Do the Samsung 970 EVO Plus drives work ? New Firmware Available 2B2QEXM7

    Hi folks... Is there any reason why the samsung 970 evo+ 2tb wouldn't work in one of our builds? I'm assuming if the 1TB will work the 2TB version of the same drive would work?

    Building Hackintosh, with Series 400 Motherboards and 10th Gen Processor

    @curro This is great info. The problem I have is that I only have Mac Laptops and I have one Mac Mini so how can I plug my NVMe into one of those? Can you get an adapter and then plug that into a USB? Also, I am wondering how this might change if I just install windows first and then try to...

    Hi @curro... I'm about to attempt a Z490 Hackintosh build too. This will be my first one. Its also going to be a dual boot Windows Gaming Machine as well as Hackintosh. I may fail terribly but I figure if I'm spending a bunch of money on a top end Windows build I'll try to pick my parts with...

    Need Advice on my potential Dual Boot Work (PC) + Gaming Hackintosh

    Thanks! I wanted to go with an NZXT 710i case. I was definitely going to go with a big AIO cooler for the CPU, maybe also for the 2080TI. Regarding the Mobo, in one of the golden builds with an i5 10400 cpu, someone used a Gigabyte Z490 Vision D (Thunderbolt 3) + i5-10400 + AMD RX 580. Any...
