I think it's same with my system?
I was thinking about moving to OpenCore from Clover.
So I want to ask about the i5 9400F, don't have iGPU what about frambuffer, are you willing to teach me maybe making fake iGPU?
Also my USB al work full speed but in system information All Showing USB 3.1although I have made a USB mapping via Hackintool.

Can you share your EFI i will learn it.

There is no igpu and so no framebuffer is needed or will work. For 9400F, best smbios is imacpro1,1. imac19,1 works with only dgpu - you don't need framebuffer. Just include whatevergreen.
Before creating hackintool kext, did you manually change the usb speeds to correct usb speed? hackintool won't do that. See screenshot
