I am thinking about setting up a dual boot (Windows 10 & Mac Os Sierra) on my windows pc for video editing.

I have a Gtx 1070 and an i7 7820HK... I am going to install both OSs on a PciE Ssd.
Not going to overclock it ofc.

Has anyone done that with similar hardware?

Just use Premiere Pro man!

@Cyanide i do. But the reason I'm going to do this is because I expect that the whole process runs smoother. Like copying files, etc. Also I want to try a new OS

@theKarlisK okay, but there are many people who even built editing systems only for Hackintosh. Some of them are real potatoes and can edit 4k footage easily.. on Windows that would by far not be possible

@CodeAlex the PCI SSD could be an issue because of driver problems. WiFi is usually the largest issue when making a Hackintosh work. GPU should run natively with drivers and CPU will just go fine. I recommend you to have a look at tonymacx86 for instructions and general help.

@CodeAlex and btw, I forgot to mention: DON'T DO IT... The whole installation including pre and post install is a fucking pain in the ass. Halfway through you will just think "Why do I need this? Do I need this?". The whole installation will probably take you 3 days (Including re-installations because you fuck things up). Recently I hackintoshed my XPS13 and it took me 2 days... And that's my 4th PC I hackintoshed, so I have some experience. Really... Don't do it unless you REALLY need it. And if you really need the OS for some small tasks: just get a VM.

@niederschlag okay thanks :D I think Im just buying a macbook. - okay, im not gonna do this.. :D

@theKarlisK alright. Thanks! I think I will keep Windows as my Os but will do that anyways

@CodeAlex I've been told by people who presumably know much more about this than me that MacOS tends to be more performant and have fewer issues running in a VM than it does installed on non-Apple hardware.

@theKarlisK I've never been serious enough about running MacOS to get farther than that info. I can't remember exactly where I had the discussion either, but it was involving VirtualBox, I believe. The gist of the reasoning was that the Darwin kernel and drivers are very picky, and it's easier to configure for full performance on unsupported hardware using a VM. I am not aware of supervisor performance comparisons, but again I haven't looked very deeply into this.

I do remain a bit skeptical since, apart from my experience with Windows software running faster under WINE on Linux (less system overhead), I haven't really found system performance of any VM'd system to exceed the bare metal performance. I'm not a VM master, though, so I could be quite ignorant of how modern virtualization handles resource passthrough.

@theKarlisK I figured it was something like that. Good luck with your project.
