Vanilla Hackintosh Complete!

Vanilla Hackintosh Complete!

Introduction:

Hello, this is my first full vanilla build, that was surprisingly easy. Here is how i done it:

Time:

To make your hackintosh a golden build it can take a while, so be patient. It can be sometimes frustrating but at the end you will be happy with your work

Parts I used:

CPU: Intel Core i7 3770

Motherboard: Gigabyte Z77-DS3H

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB Sapphire

RAM: 2x16GB 1600Mhz DDR3

DRIVE: 120GB Intenso SSD

I recommend a bigger drive, like 256GB, because 120GB will be full fast, or you use a second hard drive.

Installation:

I used this guide, from /u/CorpNewt, that has done a good job with explaining.

What you need:

  • 8+GB USB Stick
  • Mac OS image (can be downloaded from the app store or from this patcher)

Kexts:

Kexts, for the people who don't know what these are. They are like drivers in Windows. I think, this is the shortest and easiest answer.

The most of you will need:

  • Ethernet
  • Audio

And all of you will need Fake SMC, but all drivers you must have are linked in the Installation Guide from CorpNewt.

For me the Ethernet drivers that he linked didn't work. So i used this. This is tweaked for High Sierra but it works perfect for Mojave 14.14.4 too.

And that was pretty much it. If you have question just comment under this post.
