What about Pubg, Apex, the latest Call of Duty Battle Royal game.This games and many others
With an i7 CPU 32GB of ram and 12GB of Vram I would expect it can handle most games. The K6000 starts at about $500 used on Ebay. Here's what the retail price of those Quadros was 7 years ago when new:All games at the max resolutions.
In same games 4k like Forza Motorsport 7.
Congratulations, you've built the most maxed out HP 8300 system. Hope you enjoy the savings and use it for many years ahead.With the original cooling system.
Can you confirm you are using ECC RAM, and if so what details? I thought ECC RAM was NOT supported, as per the manual. If it actually is that would be great as ECC RAM is often lots cheaper (secondhand) than non-ECC.I have K6000-12GB on my 8300 and is running
with original psu.
i7-3770
32g ram ecc.
2 ssd
Mac 10.15.4 - 860 EVO 500Gb
Win 10 - 860 QVO 1T
3 hdd - 2 T
Hp internal card reader
and i can play 2019 games.
I don't have any Nvidia Card to confirm or to give you any hint, i have no experience with them.I am using a Nvidia NVS510 - should I see any audio via DP (currently using 2 of the 4 miniDP outputs)? To clarify, I currently don't but the onboard audio does work.
I don't know about Clover, OpenCore is different story working on the guide as soon as i get some time, i expect to release it during April sometime.What is best practice way to enable FileVault, or is it not recommended?
Im using my 8300 SFF with OpenCore for about 5 months from now. it is the default on all my other hardware as well.
- @Sniki at one point in the thread you mention OpenCore - are you working on moving to OpenCore with the 8300?
- Is it possible to run with SIP enabled i.e. like a genuine mac?
To be honest i have a SSDT.aml that i did generate for my 8300SFF, i will collect those SSDTs from @trs96 guide and upload them on the github project so everyone can pick his SSDT according to his CPU, those SSDTs are previously generated before that Power Management problem showed up so i assume that they should work fine.I have not done the power management bits yet due to a recent post referencing problems generating the SSDT. How can I test if it works correctly?
Depends on the USB stick, mine is 8GB and always works fine, the problem is some of the have real storage like 6.7GB or so, mine shows 7,91GB so it works fine.I needed to use a 16gb stick; I think now an 8gb is too small for the latest Catalina.
Yes, you can find it on an older version, i believe i did mention it on the guide.
- VirtualSmc.efi was not included in the ZIP download, I had to explore on the git repo in order to find it.
- I need to test, but I need to enable onboard (HD2500) graphics in BIOS in order for them to show up?
Im looking to find a good deal on a MSI Radeon RX560 Low Profile 4GB, unfortunately i don't see a single one on my country.I might keep an eye out for a low profile AMD graphics card, but don't see them often where I am. I will order a LP wifi card when shipping starts up again. I will put 16gb RAM in if I use it in anger.
You are welcome, i think the person that should be thanked the most is @trs96 as he was my inspiration for this machine as well.Many thanks @Sniki and others in the community. These machines, and this community, have been very useful in my hackintosh journey so far

Yes, SIP enabled like a genuine mac and zero issues.
But i can't publish any guide on OpenCore without releasing the OpenCore guide itself.
As soon as i release the OpenCore guide, i will publish the HP guide with OpenCore.

Yes HD2500 needs to be enabled on bios in order to have the features that the card does offer but you can't use it for display output, only for the encoding,decoding stuff.

I just took his amazing work he did and completed the setup for what hackintosh community lacked at that time and those fixes didn't exist at that time.
Thanks to the advanced development in the hackintosh world, now these HP machines work perfect like a real mac.
Only VGA port is the non working thing but that is old already and almost no one use it anymore.
Good thing is these machines now support DRM content as well so it doesn't miss anything from a real mac.
As soon as i publish the OpenCore version, things will get even much better.
