Hackintosh.com links to everything you need to build a Hackintosh and get macOS Sequoia (macOS 15) as well as many earlier versions of Mac OS X running on an unsupported computer -- instructions, step-by-step "how to" guides, and tutorials -- in addition to installation videos, lists of compatible computers and parts, and communities for support.
Helpful individuals have provided step-by-step "how to" guides and tutorials as well as general advice on installing OS X on everything from self-built desktop systems and notebooks to netbooks, and more.
Upgrade Directly to macOS Sequoia - From the well respected Mac Observer, this short guide covers upgrading to macOS Sequoia using OpenCore as well as troubleshooting. The same author also provides an insightful opinion piece on whether or not it is still worth it to build a Hackintosh in 2024.
macOS Sequoia Fresh Installation - A step-by-step guide from EliteMacx86 that covers a new installation of macOS Sequoia on an Intel or AMD PC using OpenCore. The same site also offers help to create a bootable USB stick for macOS Sequoia and helpful troubleshooting advice and workarounds for common problems.
Upgrade to macOS Sequoia with Clover - From the Brazilian Olarila, a series of screenshots that can be used by a technical user to upgrade a Hackintosh from an earlier version of the macOS via the Clover bootloader.
Nevertheless, there are significant reported issues with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, graphics, and audio for Hackintosh configurations running macOS Sequoia. To reduce headaches, be sure to verify specific hardware compatibility before upgrading an older Hackintosh to this version of the macOS or buying components for a new one. This likely is the last version of the macOS that will be possible to install on a Hackintosh, as well.
macOS Sonoma Broadcom Wi-Fi Fix - How to instructions and kexts to get Broadcom Wi-Fi working with macOS Sonoma. Other posts to enable Wi-Fi (Fenvi T919) on macOS Sonoma and USB Wireless adapters for macOS Sonoma (as well as macOS Big Sur, Monterey, and Ventura) also may be helpful.
Note that official hardware support for macOS Sonoma (macOS 14) is notably more limited than its predecessor, macOS Ventura (macOS 13), and some features only work on proper Macs with recent Apple Silicon processors. There also are many reported issues with third-party Wi-Fi hardware in particular; be sure to verify specific hardware compatibility before upgrading an older Hackintosh to this version of the macOS or buying components for a new one.
Because hardware support for macOS Sonoma (macOS 14) is notably more limited macOS 13 "Ventura", you may find it worthwhile to instead install macOS Ventura. Guides to install this version of the macOS on PCs include:
Note that formal hardware support for macOS Ventura (macOS 13) is more limited than its predecessor, macOS Monterey (macOS 12), and some features are restricted to official Macs with recent Apple Silicon processors. Verify hardware compatibility before upgrading an older Hackintosh to this version of the macOS or buying hardware for a new one.
Because hardware support for macOS Ventura (macOS 13) is significantly more limited than macOS 12 "Monterey", you may have a PC or components that are not compatible with later versions of the macOS, but that are compatible with this version. Guides to install macOS Monterey (macOS 12) on PCs include:
Note that official hardware support for macOS Monterey (macOS 12) is more limited than its predecessor, macOS Big Sur (macOS 11) and many of the major features do not work on systems with Intel processors, but only on proper Macs with Apple Silicon processors. Be sure to confirm hardware compatibility before upgrading an older Hackintosh to this version of the macOS or buying hardware for a new one.
Because hardware support for macOS Monterey (macOS 12) is more limited than macOS 11 "Big Sur", you may have hardware that is not compatible with later versions of the macOS but that is compatible with this version. Good Hackintosh tutorials for Big Sur include:
Install macOS Big Sur on Supported PCs with OpenCore - A guide to install macOS Big Sur (macOS 11) on compatible hardware from Clover and Chameleon rival OpenCore (Dortania). If you have not used this installation method before, you also may find this general Getting Started with OpenCore guide helpful.
Note that official hardware support for macOS Big Sur (macOS 11) is more limited than it is for macOS 10.15 "Catalina" that came before it. Be sure to verify hardware compatibility before upgrading an older Hackintosh to this version of the macOS or buying parts for a new computer.
Install macOS Catalina on VMware - How to install macOS Catalina using VMware on a Windows PC from newcomer TechsViewer. The same site has a guide to install macOS Catalina on VirtualBox on a Windows PC, as well.
Note that official hardware support for macOS 10.15 "Catalina" is modestly more limited than it is for macOS 10.14 "Mojave" that came before it. It also drops support for 32-bit apps entirely. Be certain to verify hardware and app compatibility before upgrading an older Hackintosh to this version of the operating system or buying parts for a new system.
In addition to more limited hardware support, later versions of the macOS do not run 32-bit apps at all, so macOS 10.14 "Mojave" could be preferable if you have older software. A number of useful tutorials for Mojave include:
Note that official hardware support for macOS 10.14 "Mojave" is more limited than it is for macOS 10.13 "High Sierra" that preceded it. Be particularly certain to verify hardware and app compatibility before upgrading an older Hackintosh to this version of the operating system or buying parts for a new one.
In addition to potential hardware compatibility issues, you also might have 32-bit apps that do not run, or do not run well under newer versions of the macOS and macOS 10.13 "High Sierra" might be preferable. Quality Hackintosh tutorials for High Sierra include:
Install macOS High Sierra with Clover - If the "official" tutorial isn't enough, this quality tutorial from well-established Mac site Mac Observer may be exactly what you need. The same author also covers the hardware components that he selected for his Hackintosh, which he has named "Valtur."
macOS High Sierra USB Installer - An easy-to-follow tutorial to create a bootable USB installer for macOS High Sierra using the (subsequently discontinued) DiskMaker X app courtesy of Other World Computing.
Note that official hardware support for macOS 10.13 "High Sierra" is the same as macOS 10.12 "Sierra" that came before it, although not all Macs support hardware accelerated HVEC. For maximum performance, be sure to confirm hardware compatibility with HVEC before buying parts.
Although official macOS 10.13 "High Sierra" hardware compatibility is the same, you may want to have your Hackintosh run macOS 10.12 "Sierra" for compatibility with specific third-party software like Office for Mac 2011. Quality Hackintosh tutorials for Sierra include:

Note that although official hardware support for OS X 10.11 "El Capitan" is extensive, support for specific features, such as support for the advanced "Metal" graphics technology is more limited. If Metal capability (or another particular feature) is of critical interest to you, make sure that it is likely to work with your desired Hackintosh configuration prior to making hardware purchases.
Although official OS X 10.11 "El Capitan" hardware compatibility is the same, you may want to have your Hackintosh run OS X 10.10 "Yosemite" for compatibility with specific third-party hardware or software. Quality Hackintosh tutorials for Yosemite include:
