Hello everyone!!
I have not built a Hackintosh since 2012, and now my MB and components are very outdated. While it still performs it is lagging in CPU power and updates have stopped working. I was wondering if it is still practical or even viable to make a new build? When will the support for older Intel hardware cease to function with MacOS? I have had difficulties using Nvidia graphics cards because of the drivers, and see that AMD is now the supported GPU that is used.
My main question is will the older 32bit MacOS (Sonoma) work with a AMD card? I have some older software that will not work on the newer MacOS after that version.
When will Apple stop support for the Intel hardware before moving on exclusively to ARM processors? At that point I will just buck up and buy a new M2 or newer laptop and see if I have any trade in value on my MacBook Pro w/ TB.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!
