I have this configuration for my Hackintosh and it has been working very good since I set it up at the beginning.

Asus Maximus Hero XI motherboard
Intel Z390 ATX Gaming motherboard with M.2 heatsink, Aura Sync RGB LED, DDR4
4400MHz, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, dual M.2, SATA 6Gb/s, and USB 3.1
Intel I7 8700K Processor
Samsung 500GB 860 EVO SATA III Internal SSD
Corsair Venegeance LPX 16GB (2*8GB) 3000mzh Ram
Asus Radeon RX580 8G Graphic Card

Then I did a bios update to the newest bios. Though it would possibly improve something. Big mistake.

After the update my Hackintosh did not start up and just hung during the startup procedure.
No matter what I tried I could not get it to start.

In the end I found out how to downgrade my bios and after that it started up like before , without any trouble.

Be warned , if you dont need to then DONT update your Bios if your machine is working.

I like the saying "Don't fix something that is not broken" :)

good you were able to downgrade your bios, some systems don't allow that
