The Build

Hello! I'm a guy coming from Italy, that is my second build, Three years ago I installed Sierra in my previous HP Envy 15, but it was so tricky and I restored Windows on it. :(

I Built my pc for 1080p gaming and DAW uses like Ableton Live and various VST. I really never thought of building an Hackintosh with this gaming PC. One day I went into this site to check if the Hackintosh Community raised and to see if there were new methods to Hackintosh.

I know this build is so old, but I really like x79 chipset, even in 2020, and this pc makes me happy every day, especially now that I managed to install Catalina on it and to have a really nice working Hackintosh.

Thanks to all this community that helps me everyday to improve my Hackintosh skills!
