Okay so the past few days I've done some research on installing Hackintosh on a windows PC. Most guides and threads explain different ways on doing things, some say you will need to reinstall windows after installing MacOS.

Ideally I would like to dual boot both my current Windows 10 and then install MacOS, both on separate drives.

I currently have Windows 10 installed on an SSD in a custom build, which is intel based. I also have many HDDs lying around and would love to dual boot MacOS without losing/having to reinstall my current Windows 10. Is this possible? and If so, could someone be kind enough to point me in the right direction as when I do a google search a lot of similar, but unrelated results show up.

Here are my PC specs for anyone who is wondering:
MoBo: MSI H110M PRO-VH
CPU: Intel i3 6100
GPU: GeForce GTX 1050
RAM: 8gb Crucial


Thanks to anyone who can lead me in the right direction!
 
At the beginning of this section there are two guides that could help you (if I understood the problem well):
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-multibooting-uefi-on-separate-drives.198869/
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-multi-booting-legacy-on-separate-drives.212994/
I do not know if installing macOS in UEFI mode on a separate HDD is necessary to reinstall Windows (if it has already been installed); however, it is better to refer to the guides above. In my system (legacy mode) it was not necessary and after installing the Clover bootloader in macOS HDD, the windows 10 partition was recognized by Clover on reboot.
