Intel 9th gen Coffee Lake is just a revision of Intel 8th gen Coffee Lake specification. The socket is the same and the 9th gen processors have been out for long enough (March 2019 or so) that any board that you buy should have 9th gen supported BIOS/UEFI versions already installed and probably...
i3-9100F does not have onboard graphics. You would need to use a supported GPU instead with this processor. All Intel processor with a suffix (designation at the end of the model number) of 'F' are made to not have graphics capabilities and you must use a GPU with all of these processors...
F24 would appear to be the latest BIOS version for your board. Updating BIOS isn't always necessary unless you are having some issues or wish to upgrade your CPU to a later supported model. You are likely to be fine to go ahead and install High Sierra...
Here is a quick test for you. Power down the computer and remove the second drive (just disconnect power and Sata on the drive). Are you still able to reach the desktop in your installation?
Are you now running Mojave instead of High Sierra - if so which precise build version - see About this...
I don't have an answer as how it appears to be running and booting so easily, but sometimes these things seem to happen. I do think that the only way to get Preview working in this instance is to start from scratch.
There have been efforts made to find a solution, but there has not been any good news in the last 3 years in getting Intel wifi to work. There has been some hope with Intel forcing Intel wifi onto new motherboards that perhaps Apple may move to Intel wifi - but no luck on that front either...
IO used to run macOS and Windows on different drives, I would use a Sata Sata internal hot swap bay to exchange the SSDs when the machine was powered down. Saved a lot of issues as Operating systems can do funny things when updating if there is more than one in a system at any one time.

You have Realtek 8111 Lan so use the corresponding Lan kext
Audio is ALC892
Did you use a config from another guide/user with the same hardware? As UtterDisbelief says you are missing a lot of stuff that should be preventing your...
There is no drivers at all, no clover - this will only give you a system definition of iMac 14,2 with a S/N.
If you prefer a manual way of achieving the same thing then it is covered in the iMessage guide:

First find motherboards with Thunderbolt 3 interface, then you can start planning from that point.

Certain Apple computer models like iMac 14,2 expect to have and use Intel integrated graphics as part of the System Definition. Changing your system definition may break iMessage and other Apple cloud services. Perhaps try a test instal on a different SSD.
Pretty sure that the ASRock board can be made to work. Note on the GTX 1060 GPU - this will only work with High Sierra. The ECS board may work - don't see many of these and some have problems running macOS.
Make sure that you use a digital video cable for your monitor from either the...
There is a guide for iMessage. It is good practice to get a machine set up using all the guides before you then go changing model numbers, serial numbers and other information.
I never log in to any Apple services including the MAS! Until I have completed all of the main installation process...
