Yeah! I have now a realHackintosh system with OS X 10.9 Mavericks. I just followed tonymacx86’s excellent guide (Install OS X Mavericks on Any Supported Intel-based PC) and that’s all… To tell the truth, if you don’t have the right hardware, you won’t be able to start the installation of OS X.

Good afternoon, some time ago I tried Mac OS X Lion Mountain Niresh my AMD E350 and AMD HD 6310 and everything worked except for the video card I wonder if anyone has tried this video Blast Mac OS X or if there Niresh Mavericks the kext for this AMD Radeon HD 6310 card thank you very much. May 15, 2019  I have an AMD Radeon R9 M290X 2 GB installed, but there is no drivers listed for he MAC OS. Is this supported or does MAC take care of the driver updates with the MAC OS versions? This webpage shows how to know if the current MAC OS supports your GPU: Update Mac OS X Graphics Driver. Best OBS Record Settings For AMD RX480????

From my MacBook Pro, I downloaded the 5GB-dmg file of OS X 10.9 and I created a bootable USB drive using UniBeast (one of the tonymacx86′ softwares). That was the easy part. Next step: the hardware.

The first configuration I tested included an ASUS Sabertooth Z77 motherboard + Sandy Bridge Core i5 2400 + Radeon HD 5770. Apparently, OS X does not appreciate this system because it was impossible to launch the installation from the USB drive. The Chimera boot screen was properly displayed but whatever the option I entered, the installer didn’t want to go further.

The Chimera boot screen

I tested -x, GraphicsEnabler=Yes or No, PCIRootUID=1 or 0, nothing to do. By the way, just press the DOWN arrow key at the Chimera boot screen to open the boot option menu and then type -x to open the boot option command line.

I tested a second motherboard, still from ASUS: the P8Z77-V. I managed to run the installer on the P8Z77-V with the following boot options: -x GraphicsEnabler=No

After few minutes, the OS X installation screen finally appeared:

I completed the OS X 10.9 installation and Mavericks told me “Hello”:

For OS X, this hackintosh is a Mac Pro Early 2008:

hackintosh = Mac Pro

The hackintosh configration is not yet over but I couldn’t resist to launch an OpenGL 4 test with GpuTest 0.6.0:

To complete the installation of the hackintosh, you have to launch MultiBeast (still from tonymacx86):

MultiBeast allows to configure some drivers (audio, network, etc) and most important, it will make the hard disc bootable.

The nice thing is that this hackintosh system allows me to plug two Radeon HD 5770 cards. Now I can update GLSL Hacker to correctly support virtual screens and multi-GPU systems…

The last thing I need to to is to buy a real Mac keyboard and a touchpad because the usual PC mouse and keyboard lack of some OSX features…

Update (2013.11.04): I replaced the second Radeon HD 5770 by a GeForce GTX 580. I can now test my 3D code on both AMD and NVIDIA hardware at the same time. Cool! I also added a Mac keyboard.

Apple's new macOS Mojave update is not compatible with mid-2010 and mid-2012 Mac Pros with stock GPUs, but it is supported on 2010 and 2012 Mac Pro models that have been upgraded with graphics cards that support Metal.
Apple today shared a new support document that provides a list of graphics cards that are Metal-capable, which will be useful for 2010 and 2012 Mac Pro owners who want to purchase a new graphics card to upgrade to macOS Mojave.
According to Apple, the following graphics cards are known to be Metal-capable and compatible with macOS Mojave on the mid-2010 and mid-2012 Mac Pro models:

• MSI Gaming Radeon RX 560 128-bit 4GB GDDR5
• SAPPHIRE Radeon PULSE RX 580 8GB GDDR5
• SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 7950 Mac Edition
• NVIDIA Quadro K5000 for Mac
• NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 Mac Edition

Apple also lists other AMD graphics cards that 'might' be compatible with macOS Mojave:

• AMD Radeon RX 560
• AMD Radeon RX 570
• AMD Radeon RX 580
• AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100
• AMD Radeon RX Vega 56
• AMD Radeon RX Vega 64
• AMD Radeon Pro WX 9100
• AMD Radeon Frontier Edition

You can check to see if your graphics card is compatible by holding down option while selecting Apple logo to access System Information. Under Graphics/Displays, if 'Supported' is listed next to the Metal entry, the graphics card will work with macOS Mojave.
According to Apple, once a Metal-capable graphics card has been installed in a 2010 or 2012 Mac Pro, macOS Mojave can be downloaded and installed after turning off FileVault.
