My New $550 Hackintosh Mojave
My Hackintosh Build (March 31, 2019) Part 1
Didn’t want to spend a lot of money. But with patience, I was able to acquire most of my parts at discounts. Also I wanted to be able to upgrade easily in the future. The motherboard was the most important factor (Ugradable & Compatibility). It support up to 64GB of Ram and Thunderbold Ready. I started with 8Gb that’s plenty for now.
After spending over 3 months researching. I've notice all these expert build
their system with the most expensive parts.
Here is my Parts list:
517KA-SS-+BK $24
Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro. $90
Intel i3-8100 $118
Crucial Ballistix 8GB 2666Mhz. $37
EVGA 600 Watts 80+. $34
Radeon Sapphire RX 570 8GB DDR5. $90

Requirements:
Mojave from Apps Store
Clover Bootloader (Global Version)
Clover Configurator
8GB USB Stick
Phillips Screw Driver
And finally: Patience
Everything works so far, except issues with Shutdown and Restart.
Apps Store, iMessage, iCloud, Ethernet all works out of the box.
I had to add sound and ethernet kext after install (easy)
Need to order a wifi and bluetooth PCie Card.
After all done with 14.2 installation, I updated to 14.4. Nothing breaks. This build is super fast. Photoshop and final cut pro loads up quick.
How to Build specs will be in the next post.
