Pavalev Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Hi guys! I would like to try if my PC is compatible with the last version of OS X. I know that my Haswell CPU is supported only in Mavericks, so I started the thread in this section. My specs are: -i5 4670k CPU -AMD Sapphire R9 270x GPU -AsRock Z87 Pro4 MOBO I've searched for every possible guide but the result is that I'm confused, I don't know where to start, so if you have time, please help me! Thanks a lot Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295086-can-i-install-mavericks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pavalev Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 I have tried to install Clover but I don't have a existing Mac machine, there is something for Windows? EDIT: please if someone can help me, I want to do this beacuse of my job, I don't want to spend money for a new mac, if it is possible I want to install it on my PC, it is not just for fun!
