Working Graphics Cards For Hackintosh [Case Study]

As we know that the most of essential hardware part to make installation of macOS system processes on a custom hackintosh PC run smoothly is the Graphics card, beside what is the Motherboard brand and CPU model you run with, core 2 duo, core i3, i5, i7 or i9 maybe?!.

Without a working GPUs (Graphics Processing Unit) that supported to run macOS system on non Apple computers (Hackintosh), you may still can run a macOS system, but! you will not be able to enjoy the amazing macOS system in a full experience.

This time I will share about working Graphics cards that will work flawlessly without making you busy in hackintosh installation process, and if you follow my guid on how to make hackintosh bootable usb drive then it should not make you get too confused with technical stuff 🙂

If you are new visitor of this blog, you can found my guid on how to make macOS bootable Usb drive for vanilla hackintosh, to make from Windows you can found the guid here. To make it from macOS you can found here.

In this post I’ve made a list of known working GPUs component for hackintosh project. Is based on my own experience, from few hackintosher friends I’ve meet on the net that’s success with their hackintosh project and some are by doing a little ‘research’ of course.

My self was using nVidia card which is NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT Series and the memory is only 512 MB. And it works just fine to run all apps and the system it self with full acceleration without getting any lag or glitch etc.

So, in this list you will found graphics cards in low price too, if you plan to build your hackintosh or just want to put one on your existing PC.

Take a note! that this is not a complete shout out of working GPU’s, is just a list that I know my self and it’s proven works for running macOS on hackintosh PC.

In this case price won’t matter, because not all cards will works for hackintosh even the price is high in the ‘class.’ you know.

Here, I just ‘try’ to provide things that surely works 🙂

Okay! here they are;

NVIDIA :

You can search them at Amazon using this link amzn.to/2tvT9VU

ATI Radeon :

MSi

Search this MSi graphics card at Amazon here 👉amzn.to/2tC8wfN

Just closing words

Okay thats all for now. I know it’s not a complete list, I am not promise but I will try to keep updating this list for other working GPU’s.

If you have experience with other graphics cards that work beside the list above, please share it in comment section below. I really appreciate if you do that. It also will help other people to found the right and working VGA card for their hackintosh project.

I know it’s not easy to install macOS on hackintosh PC, but it can be done with right method, a working VGA card and a little patient of course.

Hope this post useful and I hope you enjoy reading my post too.

And please let me know about your experience with your hackintosh for working graphics card by sharing with us here. Thanks! 🙂
