Sorry to inform you but your system isn’t compatible with macOS. This is due to the CPU containing an unsupported GPU (AMD Radeon 680M (RDNA 2 architecture)), which won’t provide graphics acceleration in macOS and that is an essential feature for any Hackintosh.
You could run macOS via a Virtual Machine by following this tutorial.
*** First of all, don't make any changes to the vmware .vmx file. It is recommended that you create a new virtual machine from scratch so that it recreates this file by default and without any changes.
*** Use VMWare Workstation Pro version at the link provided in the tutorial. (If you install it, you will have to make a new Patch as described)
*** Enable AMD-V or INTEL VT (Virtualization Technology) in BIOS. (you should research how to do this on your machine)
1) First you need to download VMWare Workstation Pro:
- VM Workstation Pro 17.6.3: (NOW...
Running macOS as a virtual machine will not be the same as having a bare metal installation, as again graphics acceleration will not work. But it will allow you to run other applications such as Xcode, if macOS or iOS application development is your aim. There will be some limitations in the system, but that should be expected from a virtual machine Hack.
Just to clarify, the Nvidia dGPU, the Mediatek WiFi and possibly the Samsung NVMe drive are also incompatible with macOS. So it isn’t just the AMD GPU that limits your system from running macOS.
