Hi, please pardon the dust during my progress in updating this story. The documentation does contain a build log of how I did build my SnowWhite Hackintosh, an install log on how to install OSX Catalina and Windows 10 on this system afterwards.
And finally, it will have a changelog for all the changes which were needed afterward to keep the system up and running.
I will keep the information here updated and create additional documents if the need arises due to updates, patches, changes etc.
Hardware is always an issue with a Hackintosh. If you don't get hardware that is supported by Apple directly with drivers there is no way to make it work. One of the reasons why certain Wireless / Bluetooth Cards are so popular and why NVidia GPU don't work anymore after High Sierra.
And after struggling with kilometers of cable, missing parts, and other shenanigans it finally begins.
When you have come to this place in my documentation you will wonder what else is there to do?
Well....
Quite a lot really.
I have already 2 other major projects in the pipelines for the next 2 years.
Custom Sleeved Cables
Rigid Tubing
And of course, making changes that are necessary to keep the system running like updates and fine-tuning.
So keep coming back.
A copy of this will also be available on

The whole build is based on on InsanelyMac. Without it and the personal help of AudioGod it would have been a little bit harder to get this working.
The core hardware components can be found in
The customized water-cooling components can be found in
And there is also management, for heat / cooling and the laser shows which can be found in
As the hardware is finally there, not complete but at least enough to figure out what is missing
First is , then , and then the long road to
Well, nothing is more constant than change and there are always bugs, so take a look
In this area, you can find some information which is related to SnowWhite but can't directly be put under the other chapters. Some of it is still work in progress so tread lightly. Get a closer look in
I value feedback so feel free to create for questions, comments, or other things you would like to discuss.
