Some NIC's don't have drivers, even if the motherboard is support your network might not work at allĭepending on the motherboard RAM can be a problem, my board supports up to 128GB/s but it's unknown how much OS X supportsĪrtefacts, screen tearing and mouse lag are a common problem, no solution is perfect and differs between users Some newer motherboards aren't supported at all, they will be in time but not at this point Not all graphics cards work, even if they do they may only support one screen, they might have a memory limitation or in my experience trigger a kernel error when booting up Now days Hackintosh computers are very popular because you can dual boot them with a Windows HDD or emulate windows via Parallels or VMWare but there is a major drawback and this drawback extends to the core reason of why OS X runs best on Apple products. What you're thinking of building is a Hackintosh, Apple despise of this because they designed OS X to run on tech approved for MacBook's, iMac's, Mac Minis etc.

It's very polished these days, and using it will give you a good grasp on how to use the commandline on servers, which almost always are running some distribution of Linux.

In my opinion dude, if you're going with a PC, just install Ubuntu Linux.

No Hackintosh is as gorgeous as the Macbook Pro with Retina Display (which I am currently using).īe sure to at least legally purchase a copy of OSX (at $19.99 it's dirt cheap). It's a frustrating process, especially for first timers, but there's a vibrant support community out there. The hackintosh is more prone to randomly crashing but overall, I haven't really had an issue with this.Īnd in general, a lot of trial and error.

You have to download a complex set of tools and whatnots and do the update manually. you can't use the Mac App store to update from 10.8.1 to 10.8.2.

Want to upgrade from Mountain Lion to Mavericks? One little error and you potentially have to start from square one - installing a fresh copy and reinstalling all your apps.Įven intra-OS updates are a pain i.e. Consult the the forums at osx86 et al to see if your rig will work with OSX.

Not all hardware is supported, especially certain chipsets and CPUs.

Or if you want to save money, you can choose lower end components than Apple.

You can choose more high end components than what Apple uses on the Mac Pro.

Don't want ATI graphics as offered on the Mac Pro? Use nvidia! Want quad SLI? Go ahead!

You get (almost) complete customization of your computer.

Oh, and if it helps: I bought 3 computers for my main machine since 2005 (knock on wood): a 2005 iMac, a 2009 iMac, and the newest Retina MacBook Pro. So i'm thinking just buy a Mac if you want OS X, build a Windows machine if you want to build a Windows machine, or (if it's for developing), maybe even consider building a whopper of a Linux box.

Rolling your own hardware means that even if you have "more powerful" specs, if you don't know what you're doing it might actually not run well. Part of Apple controlling the hardware is that it means that each machine is built specifically to run OS X.

I run Windows on my 2009 iMac no problem-with the benefit that this is something Apple actually supports.

that said, Lifehacker used to write about it quite a bit and it seemed fun!.

To me, the stability issue is a big con if we are looking at pros and cons.

Making a Hackintosh is going to be less stable than just having a Mac, and it's also (at the least) a legal grey area (putting the hack in hackintosh ).
