I have Win11 and MacOs 12.2.1 each on its own physical NVMe m.2 SSD. TPM is enabled in the BIOS of the motherboard. Installation was rather smooth and I had no issues. It's been a while now, but I'm pretty sure I did the MacOs install first. Once that was working fine (OpenCore), I removed the...

I got this one: MSI RX 6800 XT Gaming Z Trio 16G It did cost a shocking amount of money, but the “old“ 5700XT is currently being sold on ebay and will re-finance about 50% of the purchase.

Easy as eating pancakes. OC 0.7.8, latest kexts.

Indeed it was a simple swap of the 5700xt and the 6800xt and no problems were encountered. There was a little bit confusion about the resizable bar BIOS setting, but OpenCore has settings for this since 0.7.5. All good now!

Did the update from OpenCore 0.7.6 to 0.7.7 first (together with latest Lilu.kext, AppleALC.kext and WhateverGreen.kext). After that from Monterey 12.1 to 12.2 without any problems.

Hi there, I'm running a hackintosh Monterey 12.1 on Gigabyte Aorus Master z390, i9900k, 64GB 3600MHz DDR4, and RX 5700 XT. I wonder, is there any advantage or any clear disadvantage of having the internal GPU of the i9900k enabled in the BIOS? I do run Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop with GPU...

Thank you etorix ! Going shopping then :-)

Hi there, I'm running a hackintosh Monterey 12.1 on Gigabyte Aorus Master z390, i9900k and RX 5700 XT. Windows 11 is installed on a second internal SSD. Booting is done by OpenCore 0.7.5. So far everything is super-stable and all features I need are working fine. Just for the gaming on the...

Thank you! Much appreciated :-)

Thank you both! I think Ctrl+Enter will be close enough. It‘s not really a mission-critical feature. Just merely something I got used to. One more question: Can the timeout value be changed in OpenCore? The time until the menu is closed and the Default Boot Volume is booted? Cheers, John

Hi there, I have re-installed my Hackintosh successfully and run now Monterey 12.1. I just updated OpenCore from 0.7.5 to 0.7.6, removed all the debugging features I had running for a while now and installed the OpenCanopy graphical boot selector menu (I have Windows 11 on a separate SSD). That...

Smooth update on z390 board (GB Aorus) with i9900k and Radeon 5700XT. OC 0.7.6. Refreshed kexts first. Took about 20 to 25 minutes and two reboots.

Hi Edhawk, hi Henties, I don't know why, but the BT issues have vanished after about a day or so. I'm not aware of any change I did to the bluetooth stack. Obviously I'm in the progress of setting up the system and install a lot of software. The only change to the OC EFI was the addition of my...

Hi there, I have just installed Monterey (with OC 0.7.5) on my GB Aorus Master Z390 with i9900k and Radeon5700XT and 64GB 3600Mhz RAM on a WD_BLACK SN850 m.2 NVME SSD. Everything works just fine: Ethernet, Audio, iCloud, iMessage, etc. Even the Bluetooth card I have installed (a PCI-e card for...

The rest was easier than expected. 50 minutes later I have Monterey installed on my WD_black SN850. Wifi, Bluetooth and on-board audio worked immediately! The Radeon X5700XT is recognized and used as main output device with 4k resolution on my Dell monitor. Only the onboard LAN is not...
