Hi there all, Preparing for my first ever computer build and would really appreciate a quick look over these parts. I've been doing my best to research the components/process, but was hoping to get your advice or recommendations in regards to any foreseeable challenges (physical or otherwise)...

Hello, After "succeeding" installing Sierra, my system's resolution is too big, is not the right resolution. Also I don't have wifi and I'm using a TP Link wifi card. And last but not least, my noctua nf-a14 pwm fans are running unstable, like 5 seconds are quiet and 2 seconds going hard...

I've been playing with the idea of making a hackintosh for work(music production) for a while now. My 4 year old macbook pro is starting to slow down on me when I'm working with bigger music files and I'd rather just have a dedicated computer for beat making and music editing and mixing anyway...

Hi all, I think it's time for an upgrade. I've been a happy owner of Hacki since 2013. It never left me hanging but now I'm starting to work with bigger soundlibraries and I can't expand the ram so I thought it'd be a good time to upgrade the whole system. Actually to build a new and more...

Hi everyone! I've come to the conclusion that building a hackintosh is the right choice for me. I'm only gonna use ios for music production via logic pro x, and windows will be used for everything else (mostly gaming). First of i wonder if this is a good idea to begin with. If yes, this is the...

Hello. I had a windows based desktop to work my music projects (ableton) but it's very slow and old so i need a new system. I already own a macbook pro 13'' mid 2012 for my dj sets and recently i use it for music production (due to damaged desktop). I fell in love with the Logic X so i want to...

Hi there, completely new to the Hackintosh commuinty so I am completely overwhelmed by the boat load of information there is and so I would like some very specific answers to see if my system would be compatible and viable as a hackintosh build. So the story is back in 2012 when I was 16 I...

It all started after I added THUNDERBOLTEx Dual II to my z87 deluxe motherboard. Before that, my hackintosh booted great every time. But now it fails to boot more times than not. On the rare occasion that it does boot, the thunderbolt works perfectly by the way. I don't want to give up my...

Hi guys, hoping to start my first ever build soon and looking for some advice. Currently running a 2013 Retina Macbook Pro with these specs: CPU: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 RAM: 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 GPU: Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB Storage: 500GB SSD It works...

Hello! I am new to Hackintosh and I will soon order my very first setup. I am an music production entusiast, doing some webdesign jobs and will maybe edit a couple of lighter videos in the future! I don't play games often, but I would like to have the ability in the future as well. Gigabyte...

Hello, So, I built myself my first PC a few weeks ago and I found out that I actually really prefer Apple's OS and wanted to build a Hackintosh. I mostly use my computer for producing music (no gaming). My current build is the following : - Motherboard : MSI X99A Raider - CPU : Intel i5-6400...

Hi. I am a long time reader, but have not posted much (if any). Anyway, I've been searching long an hard for any info on Aggregate Devices. I cannot for the life of me get the Aggregate Devices to work on any of my hackintoshes. The devices (a saffire 6 usb and Digitech RP250) both work with...

Hi! I already got my Hackintosh to work around two years ago and now the need arises for a thunderbolt 1 port. I really need suggestions because I can't find solutions to the problem I have on the forums. Should I just buy a new Mobo? If thats the case what mobo would be recommended that would...

Hey guys! Im building my first CustoMac Pro for music production. Really appreciate it if someone can help me with any compatibility issues I might run into from what's in my list or perhaps maybe even something else around the same budget that will optimize performance. I'm sorry if the names...

Hi! This is fantastic site and forums. Been here for a few last days, checked buyer's guide numerous times but never been here on forums before I bought my parts so it is already too late for advice ;p. Anyway this is my first build, parts are already on their way to me so anything I can ask are...

I'm looking for some opinions on this X99 hackintosh build that I would like to overclock to the highest and safest level and also keep the noise level to a minimum. This will be used for music production only i.e running Ableton/Logic X and lots of Vsti's and samples etc... Also I plan on...
