Hello everyone!
Since I can't accept being price gouged by Apple to use their products to develop apps for iOS devices, I have decided to see about using my current PC for the job and I'm hoping the community can help me out. Here's what I have available to work with:
Thanks!
Since I can't accept being price gouged by Apple to use their products to develop apps for iOS devices, I have decided to see about using my current PC for the job and I'm hoping the community can help me out. Here's what I have available to work with:
- GTX 760 (in storage) & 970 (current GPU)
- TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI)
- AMD Ryzen 3600
- 32 GB of RAM
- One 500GB M.2 SSD
- One 120 GB SSD (will use this for OSX drive)
- A few 1TB HDDs
- 600W BQ EVGA PSU (yes, should've gone higher)
- Will the X570-PLUS allow dual-booting to OSX with a secondary Big Sur compatible GPU installed?
- Will virtualization for emulation on Xcode still work?
- What AMD GPU would fair well for development and won't break the bank? (This GPU will only be used for OSX and Xcode emulation)
- Would a CPU with integrated graphics meet my needs just as well for development instead of a 2nd GPU?
- Are there any other complications with this build that I may have overlooked?
Thanks!
