Hey Team,
I'm new to the AMD-OSX and Hackintosh-ing community, and would really appreciate some much needed advice.
I was wondering if someone could check over the compatibility of my current hardware setup and let me know
if there is any way I could potentially install and run OSX Big Sur, and the components that need to be changed
in order for a build to succeed. Please note that I work as a Software Engineer and so I should be able try and debug
issues – even if some of the hardware isn't exactly ideal.
Motherboard: Asus TUF Gaming X570-Plus (Wi-Fi)
Wifi Chipset: Intel Wireless-AC 9260
CPU: Ryzen 3600X
RAM: 16GB G.Skill Trident Z RGB (18-22-22-42) CL18
GPU: Gigabyte 2070 Super
Storage: Samsung 970 Evo (1TB NVME) + Samsung 870 Evo (1TB)
Power Supply: Corsair 850W (80+ Gold)
The reason I wanted to convert my existing build into a Hackintosh is for coding and video-editing. A lot of the
coding I do is done through Mac, and so having a Hackintosh handy would incredibly speed up my workflow.
For video editing I rely a lot on Final Cut Pro, and so was wondering if you could recommend some options
that would be ideal (mid-high tier graphics card, preferably in the $600-$1000 USD price-point).
Thank you so much for your time and consideration, I look forward to your replies!
PS: Please let me know if there's any critical information that's missing and I'll provide it as quickly as I
can!
