What version of macOS do you have installed?

Nvidia web drivers seems to be your problem. Please see the section in red in the image below.

Has it ever occurred to you, that the system crashes if you do not execute anything in the system right after you turn it on?
I see that the programs freeze and I start to move the mouse, and right after that it also freeze, so I have to manually turn it off.
 
I put together the EFI folders in post #4 for people using different motherboards than ours.

If you are using IGPU only AND you are installing macOS Catalina 10.15.4 or older:
Download the latest Clover EFI from post #1.
Download the config.plist from post #4.
Replace the config.plist in the Clover EFI folder with the one from post #4.

If you are using IGPU only AND you are installing macOS Catalina 10.15.5:
Use the attached EFI folder.

If you are using a dGPU:
Use the latest EFI from post #1.

If you started with IGPU only and want to install a dGPU, just delete the following:

Hey everybody! Well it's my first build and I've been reading everything posted here, I have started building without the rx580 so I am using the Igpu to set it all up. 1st thing was flashing bios to f9g and configuring it as recommended, after unlocking MSR I made an USB Catalina 15.5.5 installer, made an EFI partition using clover and copied the attached EFi folder from this post by @pastrychef, When I boot from clover to begin installation I see the apple logo and the progress bar but after that it goes black screen forever without even going to the installation screen, I am currently using an HDMI plugged to the hdmi out on the MOBO. Any Ideas? THANKS!!

I've never noticed this.

If you are using IGPU only, you should use the config.plist from post #4 of this thread. The reason is that the motherboard video out ports need patching.

You are currently stuck at a graphics error:

Serial ports should be disabled in the BIOS settings.

There's no setting to disable serial port in the latest version of BIOS for this motherboard. I believe the last version that still had the setting to disable serial port was BIOS F7. That being said, I haven't had any issues with serial port not being disabled with BIOS F9g (latest).

Thanks for the answer, but it's still behaving the same way, here's another verbose video.
Should I try doing it with the rx580 plugged in? So I plug the hdmi on the dGPU.

It's stopping at the same error. Did you replace the config.plist in /EFI/CLOVER/ with the one from post #4?

Yes, if you have your RX 580, why not use it... Then you don't have to replace the config.plist.
