Another thing that I’ll add, you can find DELL XPS for 200$ or less (depending on model and condition it is in) and in poorer countries, paying 200$ (or less) is attainable, while 600$ to 800$ (especially for a student) might be too much to try and reach for.
Hey man great video, it inspired me to repurpose an old razer blade stealth I have. This is a big ask, but there is a lack of high quality opencore hackintosh videos on youtube. I just thought I would pitch it to you since you put a lot of effort in your videos. if you have the time to learn opemcore. I bet a tutorial video would pop off in this niche tech category.
How do you know if it's running too hot? I'm using Throttlestop on my M6800 because it get's very hot and has the fan running all the time if I don't. So I guess. repasting might be a good idea?
Yeah, I had similar symptoms - under Windows, the XPS was warm to the touch with fans running even on idle. Repasting is definitely a good idea especially on older machines like ours where it's likely degraded by now.
400$ for a 5 year old preformance ...Hm at 600-700$ you can get a used M1 Air...Which is lightspeed compared to this old intel...i don´t see any sence behind this experiment.
Just hackintoshed my ASUS Vivobook Flip 14 (8th gen intel i5). The hardest part was getting the trackpad working, and it only took 3 attempts to pick the correct vodo kext. Wifi was easy as, and blutooth not much harder. Sound worked out of the gate with alcid=1. I actually own a macbook, so am only doing this for fun and laughs at the pub when my ASUS boots MacOS :)
You forgot to mention the fact that some of the users watching this will eventually become as they reap their hair of their head, trying to figure out how to install the wifi and the audio, then trying to figure out how to set up “go to sleep” when the lid is closed.
Hey please get back to me can you run logic Pro X on this with no issues can you make a video where you record some vocsls and put some effects on there and stuff that would be a big video for you in the producer community.
Hi, thanks for video, I have dell 3593 with throttling issue, I want to know the idle negative mv that undervolt it Core i5 1030 g Mx230 2g And do I have to undervolt cpu core and cash? Or cpu core only?
I was unfortunately having issues under Big Sur/Monterey that would require a lot more time researching (plus probably moving to OpenCore) to fix, so I stayed under Catalina instead. Plus I personally prefer the Catalina UI compared to Big Sur so I didn't mind it 😂
