gorans 2 Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) Hi, as my Z97-D3h died, I'm in a hurry to build replacement hack. It should be very simple as I don't have any macs laying around to build/configure stick with OC efi, and my efi on SDD will not work with new build I presume. That means I need prebuilt DSDT (if needed for setup), config.plist and the rest of the EFI folder. I hope it's possible to nake bootable USB with windows. Will do research. I will reuse my RX570, intel 2TB SSD, PSU, case... Reading on Anti-Hackintosh buyers guide I was thinking on following: some Z490 mobo and i5-10500 or i5-10600 CPU. Maybe Asus Prime Z490-P, Gigabyte Z490 Gaming X or ASROCK Z490M PRO4? Memory 16GB G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 or Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK16GX4M2D3600C18? I ruled out AMD for simplicity and compatibility reasons. Please share Your opinions and advises. I'm looking for specific mobo model and maybe some other options in that price range.

surfcaster 216 Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Just because of what I read out there and a bit of my experience (I made the change to Asus Pime H410) I would recommend 1st Gigabyte, 2nd Asus, currently I have Catalina 10.15.6 working perfectly and testing BS Beta 6 although with many problems, but it works thanks to a configuration copied from a Z490 Asus user, with Gigabite it is easier spakk and gorans 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gorans 2 Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Yup. I think I'll go with this: https://github.com/Hackintoshlifeit/GA-Z490M-Gaming-X naiclub 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BALDY_MAN 316 Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 the has beed a lot of success with the gigabyte Z490 Version D motherboard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gorans 2 Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 If You mean Z490 Vision D, that's a bit too pricey for me. If it's Z490 UD, than it's worth considering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gorans 2 Posted September 17, 2020 Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) I bought i5 10600, Gigabyte Z490M GAMING X and 16 gigs of Kingston Fury HX432C16FB3K2/16. 390 EUR in total. I hope to put it together this evening. Fingers crossed. Edited September 17, 2020 by gorans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gorans 2 Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 (edited) Hack is working but when I try to boot my Mojave disc wih OC, I get "This version of Mac OS X is not supported on this mac". I put "-no_compat_check" in boot args but still can't boot. Also I get this when booting Spoiler Edited September 18, 2020 by gorans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gorans 2 Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 If I put <key>SystemProductName</key> <string>iMac19,1</string> then I get: Spoiler Is it possible at all to boot Mojave on Comet Lake? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gorans 2 Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 OK. I folded, updating to Catalina as we speak. Dortania says that I need to spoof CPUID for Mojave, and I don't want that. I read that Mojave newer than 10.14.4 should boot new CPUs, and I have 10.14.6., but this is not the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gorans 2 Posted September 19, 2020 Posted September 19, 2020 (edited) Working Catalina 10.15.6, OC 0.6.2 with new build. Deep sleep and WOL are not working. Any ideas? Edited September 19, 2020 by gorans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gorans 2 Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 Sleep corrected with the good SSDT. WOL working with IntelMausiEthernet, not with IntelMausi. All good now! Thanks to all that helped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
