upgrade

My current setup, as in my profile, is an i5 2500K in an ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3, with a 7970 GHz Edition driving dual Dell U2412Ms (1920x1200). I've been happy with this for a good 5 years of general use, as well as about 3 of Hackintosh (many thanks to this community for the fantastic...

I was wondering if anyone could tell me some graphics cards that will work out of the box with el capitan?

is it possible to have 2GB of vram on for my integrated graphics? I have a 17-4710hq and on the manufactures website it says it can have up to 2GB of ram, but on my hackintosh I only have 1536mb. I want to edit some videos on my hackintosh so i'd want the most ram my graphics can put out. does...

Thanks for paying attention I have switched from i5 2410M to i7 2760QM, result KP. Now what patch is required in order to fix kp? DSMOS: SMC returned incorrect key:0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000...

Hi, I'm wondering to finally upgrade my OS, I'm actually using Yosemite. Since I have some pending jobs to do, I wanna be sure I'm not going to break my system. I have a clean SSD that I may use for the purpose so I was thinking that: 1- unplug the current Yosemite ssd 2- do a clean...

Hi guys, I just booted my hackintosh again (finally!!!), and I'm in love with OS X once again. Now, I'm a little bit behind the updates, I'm still on 10.11.3 But I really would like to upgrade to Sierra. Since I have been out of the hackintosh scene for a while, I would really love to hear...

Hey Guys, So I've been using Yosemite 10.10.5 on a Sandy Bridge 2600K since the earlier days of hackintosh. I used lots of the tools on this site to get it all running nicely, and its been my reliable daily driver ever since. My mother board is still using the old award bios, but it does have...

I've got a Asus G74SX with Clover 4097 installed on it, 2 HDD's, one for windows, one for OSX. I boot through clover to OSX mavericks with no issues, aside from videos on the internet crash my computer. Looking to upgrade to sierra to get a driver for my Nvidia 560M as the older drivers are no...

Hi! Thanks for anyone who takes the time to read this! I decided to update my old Yosemite partition up to Sierra finally last night - Originally set this up a while ago, so sadly dont remember too much about how it was configured, etc. Took me some time to actually get the update to run...

I'm trying to update from El Capitan to Sierra on my hackintosh. I have downloaded the Sierra updater from the app stores, updated Clover to the latest version, checked my computer's profile in about this mac (imac 14,2), but when I go through the installation procedure, it fails and the system...

Greetings! I've done quite a bit of searching through the threads this morning for, and I think it was @tonymacx86 's, El Capitan upgrade to Seirra. But I couldn't locate it. Maybe it's the fact I'm not 28/29 hours of wake time ATM... If someone could point me to that thread, I would...

Hi all, my system is running good, except for a couple of hang on Chrome like once a week, my other system with a SATA SSD 850 pro doesn't have this issues, the difference is that it's running Sierra 10.12.4 while my other system has El Capitan 10.11.6 When i initially installed my Samsung 950...

yes, a question from a newbee... My Hack runs so fine that I'm thinking about to replace the i5 6600 to an i7 6700. Is this just a hardware task or do I have some changes at the software on top, like new kexts,... . Ths for your answers!

Hi, My system was created long time ago and it works like a charm. But I already forgot many things. Here is my system: GA Z68 UD3, i7 2700k, 16RAM, EVGA GTX570, Mavericks. The bios was upgraded to EFI long time ago. I'm looking forward to upgrading to El Capitan, because some new software...

Hey, I am researching different ways to upgrade from ML 10.8.2 to El Capitan or Sierra. I think I am going to need to figure out a way to switch from Chimera to Clover. It is my understanding that, with Clover, you can upgrade right from the App Store like a normal Mac. Is this true of...

I am getting ready to upgrade my OS from Mountain Lion 10.8.2 to either El Capitan or Sierra. I unplugged my 128GB SSD boot drive and plugged it into my dad's CentOS 6 machine (which BTW couldn't read or mount the hfs+ Mac OS Extended(Journaled) file-system). On that we used the dd command "dd...

Hello everyone! - Graphics acceleration seems to work, but if I try to do something graphics is definitely lagging. Dell Vostro 3750 i7 + crucial SSD + 16gb of HyperX ram. Any ideas?

Thinking about upgrading from El Capitan to MacOS Sierra, good idea or bad? Proudly running a sandy bridge system i7 2600 k 32 gb ram nvidea 970 4 gb super clock gpu had to change current system definition from mac pro 3,1 to imac 14,2 should i just do a clean install upgrade or direct...

Hey everyone, I've had a thread on MacRumours for the last few days trying to figure out whether I would be able to use an M.2 PCIe SSD in a late 2013 MacBook Pro as a boot drive and also benefit from NVMe performance, and it turns out that there are only a few SSD's that work with each...

1. 1st hurdle seems to be that I cannot download sierra presumably because my machine is masquerading as an IMac 13.1. My install uses chimera boot loader and I have not seen instructions on how to change to say 14.2. Please provide a link on how to do this. 2. Are there any issues I need to...
