Intel Core i5 3450 @ 3.10Ghz Ivy Bridge 22nm

Nvidia GTX 650
Hello y'all, I'm asking for a little help because I want to know if there's a way I can hackintosh my way to a Mac OS X that supports Xcode 9 which would be Mac OS Sierra if I'm not wrong my current hardware is:

CPU: Intel Core i5 3450 @ 3.10Ghz Ivy Bridge 22nm
RAM: 8.00GB DDR3
Motherboard: ASRock H61M-VG3
Graphics: I currently run both Intel HD Graphics and my Nvidia GTX 650


If something else is missing please let me know, if things look okay I'm planning on installing it on a 120GB spare hard drive, and I was wondering if there any risks regarding like, motherboard malfunction or something hardware related that could happen? Do I need to remove the GPU while doing the installation? and can I have Windows and Mac running on different drives right? sorry for so many questions but I somehow need to make this work somehow and well if is not possible I would rather know beforehand before I try something! Thanks so much for your time reading this and any information you can provide would be highly appreciated have a nice day/night!

Use your GTX 650 and MacOS Sierra has native support. Your Intel HD Graphics is not supported or will not work fully in Sierra. Otherwise your system should work with MacOS Sierra. Keep your graphics card and disable the Intel graphics.

Installing an OS should not cause a motherboard malfunction. If anything goes wrong in hardware it will be because of a fault in your hardware, not the OS.
