Hackintosh isn't compatible with Nvidia because Apple doesn't include Nvidia graphics cards in their devices, which means there are no available drivers.

There are NVIDIA drivers available for 10.13 High Sierra. Using them might not work well. Additionally, you’d only be able to use High Sierra and earlier versions.

I believed older MacBooks featured NVIDIA graphics.

AMD has been there for quite some time now.

It's been several years since your card was made, and it doesn't match the specifications you mentioned. Additionally, your CPU isn't compatible—Apple has never used AMD chips.

I didn't claim it's impossible; I mentioned it isn't supported. For FM2 specifically, I don't see any readily available options—mostly would require custom development of the drivers.

The AMD hackintosh models are available, and your CPU was indeed a mid-range chip during the time of the FM2+ socket.

You can adjust Windows 10 settings to resemble macOS. Try changing themes, wallpapers, and background colors to match macOS aesthetics. Additionally, use third-party apps or virtual machines to simulate macOS environments.
