Can I run MacOS on a seperate GPU than all the apps?

I've wanted to get MacOS on my windows PC running for a long time now. Problem is, I have an NVIDIA GPU (which I know doesn't work with macos). Can I just buy a cheap amd gpu (like an rx580), and use my nvidia gpu for every app? (mostly video games, but also things like blender, finalcut pro ect)

Hackintosh Issue: Black Screen During Heavy Load

I have been suffering from a serious problem with my Hackintosh for more than a year. No matter what I try or change, the issue never truly goes away.

# Problem Denoscription

The main issue is a **black screen during heavy workloads**.

When I start working in **Adobe After Effects**, a strange problem occurs. Suddenly, the entire screen turns completely black. If there is any audio playing in the background, it continues for a few seconds, then starts to stutter and freeze.

During those few seconds:

* The **Caps Lock light** still responds when pressed.
* After a short time, **nothing responds at all**.
* The **screen remains completely black**.
* Even the **mouse cursor disappears**.

At that point, the system is totally frozen and requires a forced restart.

# What I Have Tried

I have tried almost everything without success, including:

* Modifying **iGPU settings** in Device Properties
* Modifying **dGPU settings** in Device Properties
* Changing various **BIOS settings**
* Installing different **macOS versions**
* Building multiple **EFI configurations**, using many tools, even prebuilt EFIs
* Changing **PCIe settings** in the BIOS and forcing it to **Gen 3**
* Completely **disabling the iGPU** from the BIOS

Unfortunately, none of these solutions worked.

# Important Note

This issue does **not always happen immediately**.

* Sometimes it occurs **as soon as I launch After Effects**
* Other times, it happens **after a long period of working**
* The same behavior occurs in **any application that heavily uses system resources**, not just After Effects

# Conclusion

This problem has been persistent for over a year and seems to be related to **heavy GPU or system load** on Hackintosh. Despite extensive testing, BIOS changes, and multiple EFI setups, the black screen issue remains unresolved.

Any help, insight, or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated.

I followed the Dortania guide, also tried with opencore simplify and its the same resault

Specs:

**Hardware:**

* CPU: Intel i9-10850K (Comet Lake)
* Motherboard: Gigabyte Z490 Vision G (BIOS F23)
* GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6800 (Navi 21)
* iGPU: UHD 630 (headless, Quick Sync only)
* Boadcom BCM4360 native
* SMBIOS: iMac20,2
* macOS: macOS Sequioa
* OpenCore: 1.0.5

**Storage:**

* NVMe (4 total):
* Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB (DRAM, used for macOS)
* Samsung 990 EVO 1TB (DRAM-less)
* Samsung 980 250GB ×2 (DRAM-less)
* SATA: HDD + SATA SSD (no issues)

Help with ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 2021 ga401qm Hackintosh

I recently exchanged my macbook pro 2017 for this Laptop and i'm willing to Hackintosh it.
so far i'm gonna list my specs and my issues
AMD Ryzen 9 5900HS With Intergrated Graphics
16 GB DDR4 SODIMM RAM
1tb Sk Hynix PC711/BC711 -- HFM001TD3JX013N
R*X 3060 GPU (Not Supported)
This isn't my first time Hackintoshing a Laptop
i've done this to a HP Elitebook 8460P
and multiple pc's
This is my First AMD Laptop.
I'm hoping for some advice i could have doing this


So far i downloaded this EFI
https://github.com/PIut02/ROG-Zephyrus-G14-GA401-Hackintosh
and created my own config via ProperTree and macOS kernal panics (non verbose goes quarter way)
The Kernal Panic Happens when it's saying something like SSD Unsupported it reboots too quickly for me to read.
I removed the NVmeFix.kext and Modfied my Config Again. still some issues
And before you ask if i placed a serial and Product name.
I actually did those at the start
I got my serial from a broken macbook air 2015
and i used the Product Name given in the guide
i'll be happy to share my EFI if anyone can figure out the errors





oh and i also need to install linux after ( will it break? )

macOS Tahoe 26.2 on Lenovo S145-15IIL (i5-1035G1 / Ice Lake)

I managed to get macOS Tahoe 26.2 running on a Lenovo S145-15IIL with an Intel Core i5-1035G1 (Ice Lake). Overall, the system is usable, but with some expected limitations.

# ✅ What’s working

Wi-Fi via HeliPort (itlwm) AirportItlwm is not supported on Tahoe yet
Bluetooth
Trackpad
Native audio using AppleALC

# ❌ What’s not working

HDMI output Not supported on this processor/iGPU under macOS
AirDrop / Continuity Intel Wi-Fi limitation

If anyone is running a similar Ice Lake setup on Tahoe or has found workarounds, feel free to share 👍

I'm not gonna keep this a secret. If you want this EFI, just ask 🫂

Help with Clover boot noscript for NVME/Opencore on an unsupported system

I have an older Dell T3610 workstation that doesn't support booting from NVME. I was able to boot Opencore off the NVME using a clover USB drive, but I'd like to set it up to go into OC without prompting. I found this boot noscript, but am not sure how to modify it properly. I set the path and UUID (AFAIK the EFI and OS drive share the same number).

All Road Lead to Intel Native WiFi (Tahoe 26.2)

Hi, finally got native wifi on Intel card. I don't know how I did it but I just threw random guide for native wifi such as :
1. patching as boardcom card and use OCLP. (DOESN'T WORK, macOS 15 ONLY)
2. trying the "hackintosh noscript" guide from other post on this channel. here link

for those who suffer, like me, run the hackintosh noscript, BUT WITH AIRPORTITLWM KEXT VENTURA VERSION. YES, VENTURA.

I don't know why sonoma 14.4 does not work, but eh native wifi.

as the link from the guide said, you need 3 kext and nvram configuration, im just gonna focus on the kexts..

IOSkywalkFamily.kext
IO80211FamilyLegacy.kext
(this will create a new kext named "IO80211FamilyLegacy.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AirPortBrcmNIC.kext" just leave it there)
Airportitlwm.kext (VENTURA,2.3.0)

Kexts installed? great, we are not done yet.

In kernel, your tabs now in add, basically all your kext. Now, all you need to do, is go to the block tab (kernel > block) and add.

after you add, write this :

identifier = com.apple.iokit.IOSkywalkFamily
comment = Allow IOSkywalk Downgrade
Enabled = true
Stratergy = Exclude
MinKernel = 23.0.0
MaxKernel =
Arch = Any


If you don't do this, once you power on the system, it will go to kernel panic.

Kernel \> block

Kexts


That's all, thank you!!

Worked on Intel(R) AX210, Airportitlwm 2.3.0, macOS Tahoe 26.2.

WiFi USB adapter won't connect to WiFi using chris1111's Wireless-USB-Big-Sur-Adapter driver

Hi,

currently I'm setting up my first hackintosh and I've already installed macOS. For post-install I wanted internet connection so I bought a BIGtec BIG687 WiFi adapter. I followed the instructions on the chris1111's GitHub page with SIP enabled. The installation was successful and it shows me available networks, but it won't connect to any WiFi. Neither to my home WiFi nor via tethering of my Android phone.

I don't know if it's relevant, but I'm still booting my macOS from a flashdrive.

Can anyone tell me what the problem is with not being able to connect to a WiFi?

Best regards
