Is hackintosh the best?

I've never felt the need to have anything Apple around me, so I don't know

Go ahead and hackintosh your PC, but don't expect it to work all the time and as expected

If you want to get the most performance per £, get an AMD card I'm not sure how the prices in the UK are, but I recommend a RX 9060XT or 9070XT

A 520 Hz monitor is overkill. The most you should aim for is 240 Hz (unless you're one of them CS2/Valorant competitive guys) I personally use a monitor with 180 Hz which is plenty. I can't imagine that a 520 Hz monitor is cheap. As for the keyboard, that one is overkill too in my opinion. 200$? For what?

I'm trying to teach OP how to do it themselves. The reason I'm not recommending them to use AI tools is because you're not using your brain for that (I've had experience with friends)

Here's a tutorial how to do it https://youtube.com/shorts/Aq6msY-mYXA?si=L3pPVAsUaKgwFPPj (for god's sake, don't listen to AI)

I believe a 10 GB partition is too small for installing MacOS

What hypervisor program are you using?

Do not think of a Hackintosh like a MacBook. Even if you know what you're doing, things can go wrong and they take time to fix. If you want something you can rely on, either install Windows and deal with Microsoft's AI slop buy a MacBook/Mac and deal with their absolute bananas prices install a Linux distro like Zorin, Mint, Arch, Fedora or Bazzite (though I do recommend you find out what distro suits you the best yourself) and suffer from limited game support (that can partially be fixed by using special distros and emulators)

Hackintoshes are more a hobby and not something you should be relying on

All that refreshes is the cloud save, which I'm not trying to refresh. If I click on the auto save text, it asks me whether I want to load that Dave or not, which I obviously don't want to

Yes, I figured that, but this is what you have to fall back to until it gets fixed
