hey guys,
Could you suggest some parts for building a high-end Hackintosh for gaming and optimum performance of mac
max budget 800$
 
Question, though;

Why would you want to game on macOS?
You would get much better performance on the very same hardware on windows. Basically due to the fact that the Nvidia/AMD drivers are better optimized for it and most of the very few multi-platform games are actually just ports from Windows versions.

But, as far as hardware goes, trs96's suggestions are fine.
Just make sure you also get 8GB RAM at the very least (16GB would be best if it's within your budget).

The OP will probably dual boot with Windows 10 for gaming. The best of both worlds.

Every build will require that you install some kexts to make it work. You do that primarily with Multibeast. It's quite simple really. Find a User Build that uses the same hardware and learn from someone else's previous experience.
 
Is ryzen 5 really that difficult to get Mac to work with cause I find the value better for 6 cores rather than intel's 4

AMD CPUs are not supported per the rules.
