Black Screen with 10 GbE card installed

[1337]

Hey all,
Working on installing the Syba 10 GbE PCI-e x4 card in my machine, but after the apple boot screen my monitor just goes black. No apparent kext failures in Verbose boot, pretty much the same readout as when the card is not installed. Any ideas what might be happening? EFI attached (could be a mess... sorry in advance).
Intel 8700k
AORUS Gaming 5 z370 Mobo
VEGA 64

Worth noting I also have a fenvi FV-T919 Wifi card installed too

My guess would be PCI bandwidth :

Please try this and see if you still get black screen.

Will do. Currently trying to just get things to boot after updating a few kexts (might have forgotten to update Clover after the kext updates, doh). Getting stuck on something related to Ethernet though - it hangs here for at least 5 minutes and then boots to another black screen (without the 10GbE card installed)

What version of macOS are you running?

Delete the Atheros kext.

I don't know why it's detecting two ethernet ports if your Syba card is not installed.

One of them is Wireless (doesn't the Intel Wifi kext work that way ?)
