Check list before the big jump!

[Blukasi]

Hi guys!

Im new in the forum but i been reading a lot here. Im going to do the big jump from W10 to MacOs, looking to go with Big Sur. So before that i wanna share my actual hardware to check for issues, and have a good trip to MacOs.

CPU: I7 8700K
MB: Asrock Z370 Taichi
SSD: Crucial MX300 525GB + NVME HP 920 525GB
HDD: WD Blue 500Gb (Sata 2, old warrior)
PSU: Seasonic 620W
GPU: Nvidia 1080 GTX - This will be replaced with a 5700XT

Other question i have is that my crucial and WD disks are only storage drive, i can move those disk to MacOs without formating them? There are in NTFS.

Thanks in advance!

macOS has been designed to read NTFS-formatted drives but not write to them. In other words, as a Mac/Hack user you can only open and view files on Windows drives: you can’t change them in any way, nor can you copy new files to NTFS format disks.

Thanks for the quick answer, in some way is a good notice haha. Some other recommendation for a first time hackintosh with my hardware?

Pd: Other thing i forget to mention but i don´t think is a problem is my keyboard and mouse MxKeys and MxMaster (First edition).

With the RX 5700 XT your system will be compatible with MacOS Big Sur.
