Hi, I am preparing to build my first custom mac, and I want to make sure I have everything I need, and compatible, I went to customac guides, and most of the mobos there are gigabyte but rarely any reviews on them on newegg so I am a little sceptical about choosing a mobo with no reviews. Are...

EDIT: Wow! Turned out to be a wall of text. Sorry. I think it helps if I tell something about my history and why I came to hackintosh. Thats the first part :P Hello Tonymacx86 community :) Since 2008 I own a macbook pro. I decided on a switch to Apple when I was in my second year of a...

Hey guys, First and foremost, let me apologise if some of my questions/responses are retarded, and if this thread is in the wrong section, just joined, and planning a hack'tosh, haven't built a pc since about 7 years back, so pretty rusty. I've been saving for a while, and i'm setting up a...
