Hey Technolli - my lockdown Z390 Designare build assembled following your guide still going strong 4 years later!! Thanks for this new vid!
Yeah bro!!!! Still alive!!!!!
I still have mine running thanks to you with my z390 designare
Awesome, glad to hear!
Thanks!
Thank you so MUCH!!
❤Thanks for Sharing your Knowledge with us.
Nice Guide! Perfect! Thanks and Happy New Year!!!
Thanks! Happy New Year to you too!
Love these videos!!!! Thank you🤙🏼
Thanks for watching!
Hey TechNolli, may I please ask that you make available the config.plist file for your Dell OptiPlex 3040 Hackintosh video. That would be greatly appreciated 🙏
Totally brilliant sir!
Thank you!!
This is an excellent and detailed video. I enjoyed it very much. You did not mention if you were using an external video card or internal video built into the motherboard. If an external video card was used, please advise what built and model. Thanks.
Yes I am using a Radeon 6600. Onboard graphics are not supported.
Let’s gooooo 🎉❤
This is great, very interesting! I actually like the new Apple silicon because it's crazy fast and consumes so little power, but as always Apple have made it nigh on impossible to upgrade. I'm going to get an M4 Mac Mini, but now I'm thinking this is a great basis for a Mac server and/or video transcoder. I'm super interested in seeing you try this with an AMD5 socket board!
Yes, this motherboard is really great. AM5 is coming next week.... :)
Yeah Bro~!!!
This video only showed Thunderbolt working. I want you to tell us how to operate Thunderbolt on the Z890 board.
Amazing tutorial, best i have seen, wondering if a Z890 Asus Strix E with a 285K would work and looking to use it with Cubase 14
Thats a good one to test. When I sell this board I will get it.
Thanks to your wonderful video, I was able to build a Sonoma hackintosh. Thank you so much!
Somehow my Geekbench scores are not quite as high as yours.
Mobo: Gigabyte Z890 UD Wifi6e
CPU: Core Ultra 7 265K
RAM: 2 x 16 GB PC7200 (XMP1 enabled)
My Hackintosh Geekbench 6 - Single: 1737 Multi: 11714
Your Hack Geekbench 6 - Single: 2718 Multi: 18321
My Windows 11 Geekbench 6 - Single: 3220 Multi: 21200
Did you do any further tweaking to boost the CPU performance in MacOS?
Hey Luke, I left all bios setting to default. I had the same issue with an ASRock Z890. That is one reason I really liked this MB.
I wonder if there will be a way to create an Ampere Altra 128 core hackintosh someday? What a workstation that would make!
To TechNolli
I always refer to your posts.
I'm a Japanese fan who was previously rejected when I emailed from Japan to purchase.
I've been waiting for a video of the Z890 motherboard! Thank you for the great video!
I need more than two Thunderbolts, so I would like to create the following configuration.
Motherboard: ASUS ProArt Z890-CREATOR WIFI
CPU: Intel Core Ultra 9 285K
Graphics: Radeon RX 6600XT (in use)
The current Hackintosh configuration is
Z490 VISION D
I would like to upgrade from the Core i9 10850K.
Thank you.
From your Japanese fan
Thank you so much for your support! I am looking into a Z890 CREATOR WIFI build soon, I will keep you posted!
Thanks for your videos! Please tell me how to hide text during loading macOS
Toward the end of this video I show you how. Just remove the -v in boot-args.
Still alive as many of us need to run side by side with Silicon for our occupations. Although the final Intel (non Xeon) machines from 2019 like the 9th gen I-9. How can I get in touch with you to get a RTR box (not due to the ability to order parts and slap together, I would just like something ready to run)
. I did not realize Sequoia was running on hackintosh. Thanks for posting, subscribed. I use the Sonnet 750ex on a 2019 Macbook Pro (5600M ative) and use a 6800xt on 15.1 Do you know if a 78/9 00 gpu could work on this setup? Would love to work with you on to verify!
It is a very detailed video, and I expect you to shoot a video with AMD Ryzen 7950x3D. x670e wifi love from turkey
I am doing a Ryzen 9 9900 with a Gigabyte X870 Gming Wifi 6. I hope it works good. :)
I'm waiting :)
Can you benchmark cinebench?
Reason being is geekbench does not see mulituple threads at all.
Logic bench and cinebench do.
And this increases the score by 50-100%
I will on the next video.
@TechNolli thanks
Can you confirm if the B450 Aorus elite v2 motherboard works with Hackintosh?
Any chance to see a walk through for high end amd something like am5 on x670e?
x870 coming next week! :)
are there open core drivers for Sequioa for 780m integrated graphics for Ryzen 8845HS ?
Not yet.
Hello i need help my hackintosh my thunderbold no drivers are loaded
Hey TechNolli, what's the model of the keyboard used in this video please ? It looks like Logi's MK235 but not quite... ^^ Thanks.
Its the cheap Logitech Keyboard/Mouse combo: Yep MK235
thank u for all,my question is ,many tests brings the new m4 mini in high level especialy the pro one,is this pc will bEAT it ?because the m4 has lower price
Define "beat". It's difficult to compare CPUs these days as there are so many different use cases. In single and multithreaded benchmarks the new Intel chips beat the M4 Max - but not by much. However, the M4 also has a neural engine and multicore GPU on board (because it's an SOC rather than a mere CPU), so in applications able to take advantage of those it will leave the Intel chips in the dust. And on processing power per watt, there's just no comparison, the M4 will trash any x86 CPU.
How do I need to do build the efi if i dont have these programs that are avinable only for macos
Gigabyte Z890 Aorus Elite or Gigabyte Z890 Gaming X? Which one? :D
It is the Aorus Elite
@@TechNollii know, but i want to buy one and i dont know which one?
Can i install hackintosh on i5 11400 , uhd 730 ?
help me sir i am from india i use intel i9 13900k gigabyte z790 amd rx 6600 ventura 13.6 install .. wifi and bluetooh not working
Here is a link for bluetooth: github.com/OpenIntelWireless/IntelBluetoothFirmware/issues/486#issuecomment-2174226645
For WIFI use this kext : github.com/OpenIntelWireless/itlwm/releases/download/v2.3.0/itlwm_v2.3.0_stable.kext.zip and the app Helliport: github.com/OpenIntelWireless/HeliPort/releases
Technolli site is down. Getting Wix error. Where is the file for Sequoia Bluetooth?
New site coming today. Sorry
Would you list the exact hardware used please (would be good to replicate what you're doing)?
It is in the Description now. Thanks!
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z890 Aorus Elite WiFi 7
Intel Core Ultra 7 Desktop Processor 265K
WiFi module substituted with an older WiFi 6 module
GPU: Sapphire 6600
2x16=32 GB DDR5
Yep thats it!
I think the only thing that’s suffering in the hackintosh builds now is the GPU - you just can’t get a powerful GPU in there any more.
I am hoping that changes this year.
6900xt is still a great gpu
the cpu on apple silicon macs are really powerful but hackintosh is still alive you put an ultra 9 with all the towers a beautiful fractal case we are at $2000 WITH POSSIBILITY OF UPGRADE and gpu support or have a poor mac studio but when macOS stops supporting intel x64 it will be over after 25 years everything will disappear too bad
Does somebody know if the rx6600xt and 12400f is supported
rx 6600 xt is supported out of box for hackintosh. and old intel cpus too.
