Hello everyone,
It's my first real hackintosh after quite some time and I'm planning to get the most compatible components I can.
Most of my build is already quite set according to the guide from Pastrychef – sadly I still need some advice considering the graphics card. I heard the Sapphire 580 would be the best one in terms of compatibility but I think I need a bit more power – that's why I opted for the Vega 56 series. I heard they are supported as eGPUs which makes them a nice fit. Recently I also heard about issues considering the fans with these cards. It seems like they're always running at full speed if you don't fix it yourself.
An update to this should've come with the past few 10.13 releases (especially 10.13.4 / 10.13.5) but I haven't found anyone that has my specific graphics card and has reported the issues and a potential fix.
I'd love if someone could chime in that already has this card!
