I have been using a hackintosh for around 6 years. I was never able to upgrade past 10.9.5 with my current build. I had some long forgotten Bitcoin I found so I did this. https://i.imgur.com/CBc7d2X.png https://i.imgur.com/CBc7d2X.png Took around a hour to get OS X installed. Only real catch was audio. But that only added another 30 minutes. https://i.imgur.com/hYbHBhA.png https://i.imgur.com/hYbHBhA.png Everything works great. No problems with stability. The funny thing is I initially installed windows on this build. I wanted to make sure everything worked. That was more difficult than getting OS X installed. I do not recommend using a hackintosh if it pays your bills. It will eventually break and there might not be a fix.

> I do not recommend using a hackintosh if it pays your bills. It will eventually break and there might not be a fix. Or do it like me, I have a hackintosh but also a genuine macbook pro - which i need anyway because a desktop hackintosh isn't portable. If the hackintosh acts up, I have the laptop to keep me in business while i figure out a solution.

  If it pays bills, you should probably think about hot spares anyways. (It may suffice to know that you can buy a replacement from the local Apple store, but it would make me nervous)
