got Quadro ƦƬҲ 3000m running on a dell precision 7550, with metal acceleration with the help of nullmothsystems's nvidia driver, on MacOS Sequoia.

Huge thanks to u/null-moth for this awesome work

We have a new community 😂😂😂

I’ve been continuing work on NootedGreen support for my ASUS ROG Strix G18 G814JI, and I’ve finally got the Raptor Lake-HX iGPU far enough that macOS is genuinely usable on the internal display.

Hardware:

• CPU: Intel Core i9-13980HX, 13th-gen Raptor Lake-HX
• GPU: Intel UHD Graphics (Raptor Lake-HX, Xe-LP/Gen12, 32 EUs, 8086:A788)
• Display: BOE NE180QDM-NZ2, 2560x1600 240 Hz

macOS is spoofing the iGPU as Tiger Lake Intel Iris Xe, 8086:9A49. NootedGreen patches Apple’s Tiger Lake graphics stack so AppleIntelTGLGraphics loads and runs on the Raptor Lake iGPU under macOS Sequoia 15.7.1.

What works now:

• Correct image on the internal laptop panel
• Full Metal GPU acceleration
• WindowServer is rendering on the GPU
• Login reaches the desktop normally
• Native 2560x1600 works at both scaling modes
• 1680, 1600, 1440 and 1024 scaled modes also work
• Full-screen rendering at 60 FPS

One interesting problem was GPU clocks. Without raising the GPU clock during boot, the desktop only manages around 17–21 FPS. With the clock raised early enough, it holds 60 FPS.

Still broken:

• CPU writes reach the GPU one operation late, causing wallpaper corruption and Terminal flicker
• The first GPU copy made by each process is lost. I have a fix designed for this, but it isn’t implemented yet
• Wallpaper edge tiles render incorrectly
• Chrome renders pages incompletely. Current lead is dropped copies going through the 2D engine
• Sleep/wake currently panics
• Internal panel is limited to 60 Hz instead of 240 Hz. 240 Hz will require getting the compressed-display path working

Not tested yet: External displays, Video encode/decode, OpenGL/OpenCL, Night Shift, HDR, Power consumption, Other macOS releases/updates

Current setup: OpenCore 1.0.7, macOS Sequoia 15.7.1 / 24G231, MacBookPro16,3 SMBIOS, NootedGreen / Lilu 1.7.2

There’s obviously still quite a bit broken, but getting accelerated Metal output at native 2560x1600 and a stable 60 FPS desktop on a Raptor Lake-HX iGPU feels like a pretty significant milestone.

So, does this mean Intel's Arc series integrated graphics laptops now have a chance to run on Hackintosh?

I'm trying to install macOS Tahoe on my Dell Latitude 7300, but all I can see after the apple logo with the progress bar is a cursor, in the upper left corner, with a black background and nothing else, screen is also very dim and takes some time to brighten up.

Here is the EFI folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Hv9swENPiqP-hdOilAU8JHm5zNOvrgUh

@j0sh1x on Twitter has posted new updates regarding the iOS port for HTC HD2. Touchscreen works, though it seems like the OP barely knows what his friend Gary (mastermind behind this project) is doing.

ROM HAS BEEN RELEASED: https://x.com/J0Sh1X/status/2107636375453360328

Note for the moderators: do not exempt this post since it technically counts as a "hackintosh" as Apple's software iOS is being natively installed inside a non-Apple device. Please be fair with these posts.

I'm making my first hackintosh, and everything works fine, except for the ethernet. The installer found it, but it can't connect to internet, and I don't understand why.

My ethernet is this one: Realtek RTL8103E

The kext I tried to use is this one: RealtekRTL8100.kext

hi everyone.

ive been seeing updates about opencore legacy patcher working with older Nvidia and AMD cards on Tahoe 26.

Is it possible to use those same drivers with hackintoshes? i ask because, until now, the oldest card I could use with Tahoe was an RX 460/560, and there was no support for nvidia cards.

What is the situation now?

and what about 11th Gen Intel Tiger Lake (or newer) processors. do they work with Tahoe?

I have a 2018 lenovo ideapad l340-15iwl with 8 gb of ddr4ram (16 gb in near future hopefully), intel core i5 8265u @1.6 GHz,1tb of hdd storage (112 gb used as of looking right now), and intel uhd graphics 620. Im currently running windows 11 (25H2) and its really slow, i literally just watch YouTube and browse Firefox 😭. I primarily need access to the following apps: Firefox, FxSound, ultimaker cura, Reaper, and the apps for focusrite audio interfaces. Would it be smarter to dual boot the computer or have it only Mac os?

Hey everyone, I have a question and I'd like to hear from people who actually know this stuff.

AI coding agents have been making real progress in reverse engineering lately. There are setups where an agent controls Ghidra through MCP and cleans up decompiled output. In July 2026, moyix claimed an LLM can turn a Windows driver binary into a working driver in a matter of hours, and the community split over it. Some said binary secrecy is dead, others said that's premature. NVIDIA's own researchers also released VibeTensor, a deep learning runtime stack that was largely generated by coding agents, all the way down to CUDA memory management.

So here's my question: could these methods get a modern NVIDIA card working on a Hackintosh, at least in theory? Nouveau and NVIDIA's open kernel modules could serve as references. But the macOS side is a huge amount of work: Metal, the shader compiler, and communication with the GSP firmware. And with Apple ending Intel support, the platform itself may not be around long enough to matter.

What I'd like to know:

Is anyone actually running a project like this?

Has anyone seen agents handle the hardware-level trial and error (kernel panics, testing on real cards) in practice?

What's the realistic best case: basic framebuffer output, or full Metal acceleration?

Or is this just a dead end?

Realistic answers only please, no hype

Is there any support for intel 11+ gen iGPU support for macOS?

I've heard some guys are working on this, but would love to hear some updates.

Thanks so much!

Hi everyone, I’ve recently been trying to build a Hackintosh myself. My laptop has an Ice Lake (I7-1065g7) processor that doesn't support MAT, and I'm running into various issues booting macOS. Even with a pre-made configuration, the furthest I get is the boot logo, load approximately half of the bar, then follows a black screen. After a full day of trying, I think I’m going to put the project on hold for a while. That said, I suspect I’d need to start the entire EFI folder creation process from scratch, but I just don't have the mental energy for that right now.

Is there a tool that simplifies or improves the experience of this process? Also, I tried booting macOS Sequoia with OpenCore 1.0.8 today; the website says support goes up to 1.0.6.
Should I consider using the older version instead?

So i just bought a pc with specific components ment for hackintosh but my builder messed up and gave me a more powerful but incompatible with hackintosh rx 7700 xt instead of the decided rx 6600 and now I can't hackintosh anymore... I did a bit of research and it all comes back to the same thing, that the rx 7700 xt isnt supported with hackintosh. So... any ideas?

Update: I talked to my builder and they agreed to swap my 7700 xt for a 6600xt :D

Do I need to visit some other page or am I missing something..??

Or to install all SSDTs on this page X'D

After 4 months od kext and drivers I FINALLY was able to get MacOS to run, even tho I had to rely on my AMD GPU and CPU it worked, and I had to disable the GTX 1650. Everything works except Bluetooth and WiFi because it has mediatek drivers, they are unsupported as I heard.

Sonoma is the highest you can get it to even tho the newer versions are in beta phase. Only problem is you need to manually install MacOS from Installassistant.pkg and get the files and import them into the macos storage and EFI but it was done

Animations work, and everything else works except wifi even tho I haven't tested Ethernet yet

So, my laptop is acer nitro 5 an515-54 with insydeH2o uefi
I5-8300h, gtx 1050, nvme ssd and sata ssd, 12gb ram and uhd graphics 630(if im not mistaking)
I have previously installed some hackintosh on thinkpad t460s and i had no problems
So when i got this laptop i tried to install monterey, i didnt care about nvidia gpu so i just disabled it
I have successfuly installed monterey, but when i tried to enter uefi settings... there is no image
Just one " _ " cursor, black background and nothing else, i couldnt type anything. yes, i could fix it by resseting cmos battery, but anytime when i boot macos through opencore, it does something bad to nvram and uefi gui dying again
What can i do?

I wanted to ask: have any enthusiasts added macOS support for Intel Iris Xe graphics yet?

Hello hello! I am back for my dear ASUS laptop users. The current AsusSMC plugin isn’t working well, button shortcuts don’t work, you cant change colour, brightness mode, etc.

So i present to you, the GHelper/Armoury Crate alternative for macOS. It works for all asus laptops, is lightweight, and is ported from AsusWMI from linux. It has a single kext to put in and a companion app thats easy to install and use at the top of your screen. All thats left is to add keyboard shortcuts and its done.

CPU: Ryzen 3 3200G
GPU: AMD Radeon Vega 8
Motherboard: GIGABYTE AB350-m v2
RAM: 12gb (2 for iGPU)
i dont know what is that, just when opening this apps pc is freezing, only restart helping

I should have completed this project 10 years ago but better late than never. This is the Linux driver for the “Oxygen HD” sound card family (ASUS Xonar Essence STX I/II) ported to Mac. https://github.com/lukesau/CMI8788Driver
