buyer's guide

I just noticed that in the CustoMac Pro section of the Buyer's Guide there were two sections for SSD drives. https://www.tonymacx86.com/buyersguide/building-a-customac-hackintosh-the-ultimate-buyers-guide/#CustoMac_Pro Is there a reason for this? Do we need two separate drives for a Hackintosh...

Hi, I was hoping to clarify something with the moderators. I’m currently on the Buyer’s Guide looking at Graphics Cards, specifically the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 WindForce (2GB). Though it’s listed as the standard version, the clock speed (1392MHz) and various 3rd party links you’ve provided...

Hi, I've been running my Hackintosh for 4 months and I'm very happy with it. Recently I had to purchase a webcam and an external USB sound card. Both works pretty damn well out of the box, the drivers worked pretty well and no kexts were required at all. Also found 2 externals usb mini sound...

Hi all, I've been toying with the idea of building a Hackintosh for years and I think it's time to finally pull the trigger. I'll be doing audio production in Cubase, Ableton and Logic. My priorities are: High CPU speed Dual drive system 16Gb I don't plan on doing any kind of video editing...

Hi guys, I am using my old mid-2012 15'' RMBP (2.3G i7 + 16Gb RAM + GT650M 1G + 256Gb SSD) and find it a little slow and running out of storage, so I am thinking to build a new hackintosh. My daily work involves heavy SAS (the statistical software) usage with large databases, R, Matlab...

I don't know if here is the appropriate place for this thread, but is the only one that may fit. Since I'm not an expert I find very difficult to choose the components to build, I mean there is a Buyer's Guide list, but (correct me if I'm wrong) there is no correspondence with any Installation...

In picking parts for my first hackintosh build I've pretty much been following the CustoMac Buyers' Guide to a T. However, noticed that the recommended Samsung 840-EVO's "newer version," the 850 EVO-Series happens to be on flash sale for the next couple days and was wondering if it too would be...

Hey everyone, I am going to buy all the items for building a CustoMac Pro. I located all the items, but Amazon/Newegg only ship to US. Is there a buyers guide in this forum, where all the items are located and available for EU-shipment? Thanks in advance! Best, Simon

Hello people! I recently sold my Hackbook (Acer Laptop and it had OS X ML) and I've been wanting to move completely to OS X as my main OS. So, I figured since I have to buy a new computer, why not choose parts that will make the usage of OS X on a PC as painless as it can be, and I decided to...
