WTF do i do?

Hi, i am very, very new to this but am very excited by the concept of building a hackintosh. i would buy a mac but they are just simply too expensive and i think that a hackintosh would provide the best of both worlds as (to what i believe) you can run both windows and mac os at the same time. i would like to run Mac OS Mojave for around £350-£450, is there any possibly way to do this that would give me a relatively good user experience. thanks

With this budget, I would try to find used Dell, HP, or Lenovo systems with Skylake or Kaby Lake CPU such as i7-6700 or i5-6400.

This sounds like a very nice system. It's great that it comes with 16GB of RAM as prices for RAM is still very high.

Nvidia still hasn't released drivers for Mojave so lots of Nvidia cards currently do not work with Mojave.

Here's a good list of AMD cards that work:
