More of this. This is what differentiates your channel. It's nice to have gadgets and eye candy gadgets, but adding value to the channel. How to build. How to code. How to learn. Advice advice. Thank you Aivars.

What a beast build! I'm waiting for comparison with MacBook :D

[tommuc]

you are one of the most authentic people I have seen on youtube. keep it up!

[edwardholappa]

Thanks for a super good video.
You talk like an adult and in an intelligent way. Some should learn from you
Has been incredibly interested in building a Hackintosh.
I work with 3D animation

the only reason i allow youtube notifications on my phone is your channel. My phone's notifications looks dirty but it was worth it :)

Thank you for your videos!
I did similar way to your's recently: Mac Pro 5.1 + PCI m.2 SSD and Mac Book Pro 13(2017).
It is great to have powerful machine and small portable notebook!.

Thank You for the second hackintosh video. I have a followup question. As a Unreal Engine game dev/artist all I need is MacOS for is making builds for mobile (bcoz of AR Kit) otherwise I can make builds straight from Win10. What would you recommend :? Creating Hackintosh, using some cloud service, maybe there is some other option (other than buying Mac ;) ) And in the first video I understood, You've differentiate installing MacOS on regular PC and building Hackintosh. Did I understood You right, those are two separate things ? Any advice for my simple "build" needs would be highly appreciated <3 . Thank You

Hey Aivars a lot of developers faced the same kind of problem as you did, I use the same Model too and it heats up a lot while charging and running all my programs. I'm worried that I may face the same problem too

[DebugCall]

Keep going, very good content. I really want to build a hackintosh too.

For local network you could remote in with nomachine to use the desktop, nomachine is very low latency so it should`t feel like a different machine.

Correction. Nvidia is comptible up to High Sierra. If you want software that is 32-Bit and 64 bit, then use High Sierra and your NVidias up to the GTX 10 series is compatible

What monitor are you using and what resolution/hz is it running? Is there a limit with hackintosh that they can't for example run 144hz and 4k?

[raf.nogueira]

Is that 49 super ultra wide not too big ? I changing my 32" 4k to a 34 ultrawide from Dell, these 49 super ultra wide are extremely expensive in my country. But I always wanted to use then

Hi Aivars. Do you think hackintosh is still a good idea now that we're in the new ARM generation of Macs?

[arvinmi]

Hi Aivars,
I have been interested in looking into hackintosh, I have a few questions below, also I maybe will be doing it after some of the new hardware gets launched, could I ask question on the comment thread or DM, if I have any general questions?
1. Do you need to make a separate iCloud account from your own Mac, incase Apple will not allow it?
2. How do you store local files, incase the computer has a kernel panic (or just has some problem), how do you store the data?

[chuddywarrior]

can you run xcode project on mobile device with a hackintosh?

[LarryVitas]

I've got a question about upgrading hackintosh hardware. Currently I am running a Catalina build with a gigabyte z390 m gaming, intel i5 9600k, red devil rx 5700 xt. Everything is running fine. Cyber Monday I bought the i9 9900k. Do you have experience with upgrading your CPU to your current Hackintosh build? Do I need to change anything in smbios before or after swaping the CPU?

[edwinsantos]

But, due to recent apple's announcements ( about the processor architecture changes ), will it be possible to maintain a hackintosh in the near future?

[flyingsquad]

Can I copy the see through case? If so link pls 😁

[kaisquare-app]

i run a local docker container on mine. 😀 its a beast.
