So, I use my Hac for a while and it runs very smooth and stable with Sierra. The only pain was the wifi und blutooth that´s not working. I decided to switch the wifi-card to a BCM94360CD and now all worked well oob. I can use handoff and all BT 4.0 features – and can use […]
Well, in the meantime I setup the new G5-tosh with Windows, because the machine is to be used productively, but also for games. Therefore you need windows in some way. I decided to install Windows 10, because I have a real Win7 license, which could be used with Windows 10 Pro and I have a 4k […]
So, yesterday was the day. I build in the new hardware into the G5 and do the cable management. All fits well – so far – not as I mentioned, but it fits 😀 After I finished the hardware configuration, I do a testrun if all components are recognized by the machine and all […]

So, today the shipping from „The Laser Hive“ has arrived. Now – as the target is so close – I decided to sell my old Xeon and DDR3 RAM and buy a new heart for my G5. The G5-Project isn´t dead (it just smelled like it was)! Now you can buy my stuff on […]
So, today was a bad Hackintosh-Day. I wanted to install a fresh Sierra installation on my new Samsung 850 Evo SSD and during this process my motherboard died. I wanted to reset the bios and this action was too much for the old Z77a-G45. So… now I have a problem, because I actually don´t […]
