Why Build a Hackintosh in 2023

In this video, I'm discussing why I think it's a good idea to build a Hackintosh in 2023.
Based on my research, Hackintosh is still a viable option in 2023, and there are many reasons to consider building one. Whether you're looking for a powerful PC alternative or you just want to have fun, Hackintosh is a great option!

Technolli, thank you so much for all your help! I have been using the system you helped me build in 2020 and it has been flawless, running Catalina and Pro Tools 12. I run a lot of tracks and plug ins and there is no way a base M2 Mac mini could do what this machine does. I have never had to restore the system from a backup once. The satisfaction in building a machine yourself is huge. For newcomers it might be daunting but I would urge anyone who might be swayed to consider your argument about the base Mac mini if they are running large track count and plug ins. Thanks again.

thank you for all you videos - ALWAYS very helpful. I am trying to update one of my pc's (dell optiplex 7040 micro - skylake) from big sur to ventura or sonoma - the install seems to go great until the last minute and then fails with this message "An error occurred preparing the update. Failed to personalize the software update. Please try again" - this has happened numerous times now (too many to mention) - have you ever experienced this and is there a way to stop it from happening?

You're amazing. Great Video. Is there any chance of a tutorial of upgrade to Sonoma? Thanks

[NetScalerTrainer]

How to do this on older hardware? One that already runs Catalina

I have a new Asus B660M-A D4 motherboard/I3 13100/16 GB RAM/500GB NVME. I wonder if adding the RX 560/580 (I have no graphics card in this build) and disabling the one onboard would be a good base system. Tempted to try!

Very interesting video, Mr. @technolli. I'm wondering THE BEST BUILD for running Sonoma. I've sonoma running in a i7-8700 with 64Gb of RAM and RADEON RX-580, but I would like to sensible improve my performance working with video in Final and other tasks.

What's your recommendation??

My new build contains a 7980xe CPU, designair ex MB and titan XP GPU. Got all these for under $600 on eBay.

[agostinogiordano]

But It work correctlay with any iPhone? And then, It can upgrade to new macOs?

[beinportugal]

Not sure what is going on with your CPU but my i3-13100F hackintosh gets over 2.3K single-core and 8.3k multi-core in Geekbench 6, beating my M1 MacBook.

[thugfromeu]

It’s true hackintosh for cost is not needed anymore an iMax 5k 27 is fantastic value. It’s only for upgradeability and maximising performance with latest tech.

[vincentkenjiro]

So I have a question will hackintosh work with an rtx 3080?

[raynerstuelgalid]

What MacOS version is this hackintosh on?

[khoifoto]

I used to build a lot of hackintosh but since I can no longer get 4K 165hz out of my 6900XT on the latest mac OS, it's a no go for me.
