    [SUCCESS] Gigabyte Designare Z390 (Thunderbolt 3) + i7-9700K + AMD RX 580

    I've been running this build since 2018. Currently with an RX590 but I'm looking to squeeze out a little more gaming performance (in Windows) while preserving macOS compatibility as long as possible. Is the 6600 the best choice? Like the user above I'm not looking to spend a fortune but can...

    Success with Gigabyte H370M DS3H +i5-8400 coffee lake

    May I ask what BIOS version you're on and what settings you're using? I tried your EFI (disabled XHCI Port Limit and populated the system profile) but on booting the installer I keep running into the following error: authenticate_efi_forwarded_roothash:2809: apfs_extract_root_hash_and_manifest...

    Also wondering the same thing because I have one of these and wanted to get current with the OS. Did you figure it out in the end?

    Quick couple questions: • What are people using to monitor system sensors these day? i.e., temp, SMART, RPM, etc. • After clearing my Clover NVRAM the display won't turn off per Energy Saver prefs. Is this a familiar problem?

    This was helpful, thanks. I may need to play with the UIScale/NVRAM to figure that part out but I've got meaningful boot entries in the picker now which is the important thing.

    Apple really is taking their brilliant OS in a weird direction. I'm frankly not loving Monterey, even after about a week of use. Aesthetically it feels like a step backward (cheesy icon design, bloated UI elements) and the the nagging security features with no off switch have been a source of...

    I've replaced my EFI with the more recent one (pg 3604) and will report back. No issues with System Prefs yet but it would usually work fine after a reboot anyway. I noticed the picker is running at a lower resolution since updating the EFI, even though resolution is set to Max in the config...

    Thanks for noticing! That's the mobo I'm using and I got the OC set from a post linked somewhere deep in the main post but this thread has gotten so unwieldy that I'm not surprised I missed something. I'll grab that newer config and give it a shot.

    [SUCCESS] Gigabyte Designare Z390 (Thunderbolt 3) + i7-9700K + AMD RX 580

    Thanks for taking the time to help. This is a fresh install and I didn't migrate any data from a prior installation. macOS version is 12.5.1 from the installer and Software Update says it's up to date. This is the only disk with OpenCore installed so I don't think that's what's going on. I'm...

    Yeah, I'm no longer signed in to any Apple services on this computer, and I've restarted several times but the issue recurs. Sometimes it works fine. Other times the pref panes just take ages to load. Other times, System Preferences goes unresponsive and the affected panes won't load until after...

    Do you mean disable iCloud Drive or log out of my Apple ID altogether? In any case, it seems to make no difference whether I'm logged in or not. That value is present in my config.plist. I'd really like to resolve this without starting from scratch if I can because a lot of effort went into...

    [SUCCESS] Gigabyte Designare Z390 (Thunderbolt 3) + i7-9700K + AMD RX 580

    Initially I thought I had resolved this with a simple reboot but I'm experiencing it again so it might be worth delving deeper. • Yes, this is the fresh install. • Trash is empty. • Some PrefPanes will open but others won't. I'm again having trouble with Accessibility and Mouse, for example. •...

    EDIT: Seems a restart has got this sorted so I'll just keep an eye on that in case it reoccurs. I went ahead and used a fresh system profile set to iMac19,1. Install was very smooth and set a great first impression for OpenCore. Thanks @CaseySJ for your hard work. I'm doing a completely fresh...

    Thanks. I'll give Monterey a shot. I've updated or culled all 32bit apps from my work. Well, there are a couple minor exceptions but I'm going to have to move on.
