and once in the experience was extremely buggy and glitchy.Īnimation was extremely rigid and broken feeling, kinda like constant freezing. However, mine still took roughly 4 hours. the macOS install didn’t take 36 hours like he said his experience did. And being he couldn’t use his entire pc resources for the vm, he was set to 4 cores. As the guide I was using said he was using a 6 core Intel i7 at 2.3 ghz clock speeds with only 6gb of system ram and only the intel hd integrated gpu. I figured that using 12 cores/24 thread and all that ram/memory/space would improve performance to about that of a middling i5 laptop. and increased video memory to the max allowed in virtual box. I setup USB 3.0 emu support, set available VM RAM disk size to 24 GB (super insane overkill) and enabled hardware acceleration support for gpu related tasks using my gpus. The partition is 250 GB (slight overkill but I wanted to try to squeeze performance as the guide said booting macOS this way will be horribly painful and slow). I ALSO set the VM to install to a dedicated partition on a Firecuda NVME m.2 SSD rated for 5000mbps read/write speeds.
I also have a RTX 2060 Super and a RTX 2080 Super on this system. I have the Ryzen overclocked to 4.4 ghz per core/all core. Now my windows pc has 64 GB of CL16 3800 Ram, a Ryzen 9 3950x with 16 cores/32 threads and a 64mb l3 cache.
That was the biggest issue with running macOS on virtual box as it’s not technically meant to run on it.Īnyways after following the guide, I was able to finally get the newly created and launched vm to boot on my windows desktop pc. as windows cannot natively partition are setup the tables for newer macOS like how you can’t view or setup native Linux/Ubuntu partitions and file systems in windows without an external helper app or mod. I was having huge problems finding a still working copy of any macOS (can’t be recent ones as there are memory issues and a change in instruction sets for newer flavors for say the M1 chips but the guide suggested Big Sur as I guess it only requires 4GB of system ram and the entire install could still fit on a 64GB bootable flash drive setup using a windows native live boot install method such as Rufus. the main reason was that it provided a still working link to download the macOS installation for free and burn to usb. You can install a version of MacOS Big Sur onto a fresh virtual box installation (pretty sure I checked a Linux based x86-圆4 platform when choosing OS distribution type but I followed a online tutorial I found using a Google search from like 2017 or 18. But actually, yes you totally can run Xcode within a windows envrioment.
