Hello guys.

I have a question for you, I saw a video of Linus that he reviewed Hackintosh, and I would like to install it on my system.

This is what I have:
AMD A6-5400k currenty at 4.2 GHz

6GB DDR3

ECS A55F2-M3

AMD HD7540D

 

Can I install it on my machine?

I'm sorry if I failed with something, correct me!

 

And, thanks for answers, if there will be any. :shy:

Lol.

AMD CPU says no.

 

OS X only supports Intel (unless you get a modded kernel, which is unstable and buggy)

Well, for me, Intel is not as fun as AMD.  :P

But, I didn't mean to write that I don't like it, I failed.

If I had money, I would surely build an Intel based rig.

Lol.

I don't feel comfortable saying whether it will or will not work. Your best bet is to try it yourself.

 

But I can tell you from my brief googling that people have gotten it working, Though it may be more of a headache than it's worth. But really, doesnt hurt to try.

Tired of hearing people say you can't install OS X on AMD hardware. Educate yourself.

I'm "sure" it does, but you gotta remember that the A series are APUs and not CPUs... a bit different internally. Most definitely not as easy as an FX cpu.
