Gigabyte Z490 Vision D (Thunderbolt 3) + i5-10400 + AMD RX 580

Sorry, your version is newer. Hmm, but I think you can try another version.

Thank you.
FWIW, I tried the 0.5.8 version too and it's pretty much the same. So I suspect the issue is because there might be some conflict between the different settings for 2 version of the motherboards. But I'm not sure how I should change either the aml files or the config.plist file.

Excellent hackintosh guide with such extended details. I really enjoyed reading it. Question, I'm upgrading mine to 10th gen as well, but I got MSI Tomahawk Z490 board. Will this OpenCore method of yours will work on Tomahawk board?

Never mind, that was stupid on my part. I just realized that the UD version of the motherboard was actually using a Realtek Ethernet card. After adding the Realtek8111.kext it's now working.

Thanks everyone.

@CaseySJ Thanks again for the very useful suggestions. I think I've uncovered an issue a bit "closer to the metal" so to speak. My GPU doesn't appear in the BIOS at all (screenshot of BIOS "Plug in Devices" below). The GPU fans spin up, and I've connected additional power directly, and tried it in two different PCIe slots. But there is no signal from the ports and it doesn't appear at all in the BIOS.

Regrettably it's hard for me to tell if the issue is with the motherboard PCIe slots or the GPU (or, conceivably, both).

I tried to proceed with macOS installation without the GPU. Following your great guide, I set config-Intel-iGPU.plist as config.plist, and added the relevant serials and -v flag with the 0.5.9 installer. However this led to the same sleep panic I described earlier.

Any thoughts? Many thanks again!

For me works:
- showdown all system
- put GPU to slot PCIEX16
- remove Motherboard battery for 30 seconds approx.
- connect your monitor to GPU (don't use internal Thunderbold or HDMI Motherboard connectors)
- let system goes up (several restarts happens)
- screen should display BIOS (use DEL or F12 on your keyboard to enter into)

I've same pain with my Gigabyte Radeon 5500 XT ...

For running macOS, sure you'll need to put: agdpmod=pikera into boot-args.

I have a question
My iPhone and removable hard disk, connected to the front panel’s type C port
It can only charge , can not transfer data(macOS show nothing)

But if I plug a type c hub to the front panel’s type C port first, and then use the USB A cable to connect to the iphone and removable hard disk, data transfer works, indicating that the front panel’s type C port works fine.
What should be the reason?
PS.The same cable and prot works in win10.
Thanks

This issue comes up a lot so I'll add a paragraph to the Installation Notes section of the build guide. As the diagram in Tech Talk shows, we have disabled port HS01 in order to avoid exceeding 15 USB ports. Apple's iPhone uses USB 2.0 protocol, so if you connect to a USB-C port, it will not work (HS01 is disabled).

Two solutions:

• Use a Lightning-to-USB Type A cable (USB 2.0 works on all Type A ports, but does not work on all Type C ports)
• Use the experimental USB SSDT provided in this post, which intentionally exceeds the 15 port limit, but allows USB 2 devices to connect to USB Type C ports
  • However, keep the existing SSDT-UIAC-VISION-D-V1 because macOS updates may not install if SSDT-UIAC-VISION-D-V2 is used
  • Fortunately, we can just toggle V1 off and toggle V2 on (and vice-versa) in the OpenCore config.plist

While much of the OpenCore configuration is reusable, some parts are specific to this board:

• ACPI section:
  • SSDT-UIAC-VISION-D : USB map is specific to the Vision D, but you may disable that and instead enable the Kernel quirk XhciPortLimit
  • SSDT-TB3HP : Thunderbolt 3 hot-plug is applicable only if on-board Thunderbolt is present and on RP05
  • SSDT-EC : The device H_EC might be called something else on your board
  • SSDT-USBW : The device XHC_ might be called something else on your board
• Device Properties:
  • The PCI paths of device properties may be different on the MSI board

The config.plist looks fine. However, if you're using iGPU please do not use the on-board HDMI port. It won't work. Instead, we should use a USB-C to DisplayPort cable such as the one listed in Components: Optional:

It's also a good idea to remove the CMOS battery for 30 seconds as mentioned by @alchymista or perform a CMOS Reset. BIOS parameters and CFG-Lock should both be re-configured afterwards.

It's really strange that your GPU is not being recognized. Is it a brand new GPU? Are you within your return/exchange window?

Sorry to hear that this problem is taking so long. Must be frustrating, but let's see if we can find the culprit.

@CaseySJ, did you have the opportunity to test the behavior of the LED controller?
I also noticed that when the PC wakes up, the LED color settings are also reset.
