Amazing guide, thanks!! I followed it step by step, loved the screenshots, helps a lot. The only problem I had is when entering the command in terminal cd /System/Volumes/Data/Users/Shared tail -f EFIClone.log Result was item can't be found. Copy finished correctly, but when opening the EFI...

My GPU is Gigabyte AMD Radeon RX 5700XT I managed to go through the process of installing, although it was a very difficult task to find out where to click to hit the right button. Rebooted twice during inatalation and now I have a desktop in full scteen!! So, so far, looking good, thought I...

I am having trouble installing. Did the USB as per instructions, but when language selection of OSX installer loads I get a weird screen with green glitches and what appears to be a screen out of frame or displaced. And by the way, mouse can click buttons but in the original position, not where...

Hey guys! Need some help here. I am trying to install Catalina from scratch using a clover USB and following this nice and detailed list: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/success-gigabyte-designare-z390-thunderbolt-3-i7-9700k-amd-rx-580.267551/post-2046300 Problem is, when the installation...

Thanks for all your advices, guys. I've finally bought the i7-9700K. All will be delivered by Friday. I can't wait to build and install my new hackintosh!

haha... yes, I meant an i9-9900K, but I am also considering the i7-9700K. Looks like it is not much of a difference in terms of performance and saves me around £160.

Hello guys. I have been checking the Buyers Guide, and I came up with this new build to buy. I need advice to know if this is compatible with Catalina and if it is a good build for my purposes: 70% for editing and graphics, and 30% for gaming. MOBO: Gigabyte Z390 Designare CPU: Intel Core...

I have tried @itwas solution with no luck. My system keeps rebooting when sleep. Also only found 2 PowerManagment files to delete under /library/preferences Any other solutions found?

Thanks both! I thought on disabling sleep as a real option, it wouldn't really bother me not to have it. However, several issues remain unstable that really concerns me. To make a list: - Downloading and installing the game WOW always give me a system error. So far I haven't been able to even...

You are right, irz. My scores after wake up drop drastically from CPU 843 to 562. Initially, I realized my Catalina wasn't waking up, so I followed a post that suggested to disable the ports in BIOS. So I did and wake works not, however now it awakes to a very slow system. Have you found any...

Great Gigamax! I've made the changes you spotted out with very good results. Not sure what it exactly was, if the Smbios, the XMP or the Z390 correction, which by the way was already disabled. Anyway, after changing these 3 items the speed of the system and the scores have increased...

Alright... I wasn't sure how to give some scores. I downloaded the Geekbench version you told me, and these are the scores for CPU, GPU OpenCL and GPU Metal. Please let me know if there is anything else needed to investigate the case. Thanks!

Hello. Looking for some help here. I've just updated to Catalina (using USB bootloader method), plus updated my old GPU to a Sapphire RX 5700xt Nitro+. I thought the improvement was going to be obvious, but instead Catalina is performing terribly much more slower than Mojave even with my old...

Gutted! That makes sense. Now, do you have any idea why I have the same problem when trying to install High Sierra in a Samsung SSD 830? I used the same USB installer, and the result is again a loop boot when progress bar is either in 18, 17 or 11 minutes remaining. It makes sense as you said...

Thanks BreBo! I read that post before. However I have also seen a post of someone who made it work when installing Mojave. Samsung EVO 970 Plus that wouldn't explain why I get exactly the same loop boot when installing in the Samsung SSD SATA. Any other ideas?
