Will this work?

[leinad1989]

Hallo all,

A few months ago I thougt about switching to Windows. I made the switch after selling my mid 2010 iMac. But now I'm regretting this decision. I bought and built my own Windows pc. Now I am wondering if I can use Mac OS X on my machine. Below are my specs:

• Motherboard: Asus Prime B450M-A
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X Wraith Boxed
• GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1650 Super Windforce
• RAM: 16 GB Corsair Vengeance LPX cmk16gx4m2d3000c16
• PSU: Seasonic Focus Gold 450W
• SSD: Kingston A400 2,5" 480GB

Okay, I figured out my GPU won't work. Maybe if I swap it with this one: MSI Armor RX 580?

Thank you, this will work with the rest of the specifications? And how hard is it to install Mac os X Catalina? Will everything work. I have minor experience.

I don't know what Fleabay is, but looking at it I assume it doesnt ship to the Netherlands.
