    This is great news for those who would like to run different OSes in an easier way, so you won't have to guess which MBO should be the right one. And the BIOS is Open Source, nice. Great MotherBoard regardless being OS-X compatible or not.

    Sorry bro. Its still a hackintosh.

    The maker clearly states on his page that its a GIGABYTE motherboard that he had "customized".


    Photos show a GA series gigabyte. #1 choice of Hackintosh users for many many years.


    Others have done this as well.

    Google the following

    CARTRI BIOS
    EFIX OSX

    Its been done years ago bro.

    Nice to try it though. I made my first hackintosh back when Apple actually allowed you to !
    YEs.. Apple used to actually sell their ROM CHIPS ! SO you can make your own clone... There were also licensed clones back in the day... all PRE-OSX thou...

    For info on that look at the ancient hardware I used as a hackintosh... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emulation_on_the_Amiga

    I recommend those "out of the box packages" only for people with more money than they have time.
    Your purchase will probably include tech support phone number. You will get the same answers from ANYONE using the same model Gigabyte motherboard for their hackintosh thou....

    but for the extra cash spent... at least you have an email address or phone number to directly contact someone..... probably...


    NOTE:
    Original mothrboard from Gigabyte - also with onboard thunderbolt.---> CLICK HERE


    compare the 2 motherboards side by side GIGABYTE VERSION and BROSKI VERSION

    Dont ask me why broski had the word THUNDERBOLT printed beside the RAM slots ... lol... after the model number would have been the place I would expect to see that...

    Lastly you should look further into this before you jump into his kickstarter that failed to sell off their opening inventory

    virtual machines maybe worth looking at before going for a full hackintosh

    I would hold out for a little while longer and see if Mac steps up their Pro game. You can always try out what SirSillySausage suggested while you wait.

    Best of all THAT software being used to run OSX... is made by Oracle and its 100% FREE !

    Name is VIRTUAL BOX and you can download it directly from the developer completely free !

    Virtual Machines are a great tool and I personally have used them many times to repair (and/or install) my actual hackintoshes ;)
