I'm in the same boat CaseySJ. Just got my 16" Macbook Pro M1 Max in December. Of course, after seeing the Mac Studio...:crazy::banghead::think:

Wow guys! I went and sold and replaced my Z390 setup with the 16" MacBook Pro M1 Max 32GB/2TB. I thought I was tired of hackintoshing and got a real Mac. But...after reading this thread and seeing some of the numbers from this board/CPU/RAM combo, I'm thinking I may have to rebuild myself a new...

I have the Akitio Thunderbolt Quad X (the full-size version). It's been working fine on Big Sur and Monterey. You may need to go to their website and check to see if there is newer firmware for your device. Also, a firmware update came out for the TS3 not that long ago last year. Check the...

Curious...how are your 4 M.2 drives installed? Are they internal or external?

Newegg seems to have the i7 versions in stock with a few of the 690 motherboards, so I thought some bleeding edger might have it by now to test.

Does anyone know definitively yet if the new Alderlake CPUs and Z690 motherboards are compatible Hackintosh parts?

If its working in Mojave now, it might work in Catalina. I doubt that it will work with Big Sur. I had the motherboard running Catalina, but I had an issue with the internal SATA ports. If when you try the new install it sees your SATA ports upon booting, then you're probably fine. That was my...

Might be tricky. I assume you have Mojave running on the machine. If so, you can't upgrade to a GPU that Majave doesn't support. Likewise if you managed to get Catalina installed, you can't go past what the built in drivers are for the Radeon GPU that you buy. Unfortunately, Nvidia support is...

New BluetoolFixup did the trick guys!! Bluetooth is back and rolling! Thanks!

Please note, my machine won't boot if I enable the IntelBluetoothinjector. It's been this way from the outset. Thanks.

Yes. I already had that installed. I tried going back to an older version, but I get an even worse result. The machine takes a rather long pause when it boots and the Apple icon is on the screen and then it boots fine. The Bluetooth button control in the menu bar lets me turn on Bluetooth, but...

Yes, I’m having trouble loading bluetooth with openintel on Monterey final as well. It was working perfectly before the update. Trying to see if an older version of the openintel bluetooth will load now.

I think CaseySJ has warnings about Thunderbolt 3 monitors. You should see that somewhere if you search this thread. Displayport and HDMI monitors work pretty much without fuss though.

Yes, I am running three monitors: (1) 4K LG TV, (2) 27" 4K LG Display, and (1) 32" HD Display with my Radeon 5700XT.

Speaking as an M1 Mac mini purchaser and having had the machine for about a month and a half, I say the following: I too am a Hackintosher, and the Golden Build here is what I built in the beginning of 2019. I love my machine, though I don't relish the upgrade process on Hackintosh for the OS...
