MacOS 26 Tahoe’s arrival revolutionized Mac computers. Beyond the great redesign and functionality There is a new starting feature, but not suitable for all users. The end of the support that allowed Mac to work on computers known as “hackintosh”, which was released by the Apple Chip M with Apple Chip M, appeared.

What is “hackintosh” and why not apply with MacOS 26?

Traditionally, “Hackintosh” was based on MacOS compatibility with standard Intel X86 processors, which are the same on most PCs. This allowed users to combine their equipment with compatible components and upload a modified version of MacOS. However, Apple’s transition to the M series (Apple Silicone) to its chips radically changed the rules of the game.

Based on ARM architecture, M -series processors not only offer higher energy performance and efficiency, but also integrate hardware and MacOS software in a deeply optimized way. This means that MacOS is specially designed and optimized to work with this hardware.. Trying to run MacOS 26 on a generic inteller machine is no longer waiting for the same components and controllers with the base of the same components or because it does not interact.

The latest MacOS versions and especially MacOS 26 are included each time. Further function and optimization due to direct M -Chips’ capacities. This includes tasks that require the application of artificial intelligence from the management of the combined memory through image signal processors. The mimli or adaptation of these functions is a task that requires technical knowledge and much time, and in most cases it is not possible without a major loss of performance or stability loss.

In addition, Apple has intensified security measures and software restrictions, which has made it more complicated for the starting process and verification of the operating system at unauthorized hardware.

Macs compatible with Tahoe MacOS

New MacOS Tahoe is still 16 -Inch MacBook Pro 2019, 13 -inch MacBook Pro 2020, Imac of 2020 and Mac Pro 2019. Apple Silicon was presented in WWDC 2020, but the first M1 chip did not reach until the end of that year. MacOS Tahoe is currently It is not compatible with any MacBook Air or any Mac Mini model with Intel

It stopped making sense to put a Mac’s brain in a pc body

Apple’s investment and integration strategy in its own chips ecosystem creates an increasingly closed platform and is more difficult to reproduce by design. Although the “hackintosh” community is skillful and permanent, The technological space between the Apple hardware and the PC standard has become very large.
