Attached is my latest EFI configuration, works with Big Sur 11.3.1 and OpenCore 0.6.9 on my GA-H170N-WIFI motherboard ("Mini-ITX 2" below).

thanks for sharing this.

i hacked same mobo with i5-6500 5 years ago, using clover then. i have since moved to opencore on coffee lake systems. but now is time to upgrade this and i have only luck making HDMIs to work. the DVI remained black screen after DMOS. I tried your EFI too but same issue. is your system using DVI ?

AMD RX 560. You are correct; you would need the nVidia graphics driver to run that card, but no such driver exists beyond macOS High Sierra (10.13.x).

Not sure there's any such thing as a "budget" video card these days, but the RX 560 will fit. It is currently in a Rosewill Mini ITX desktop - Model RS-M1-01 BK case, which is tiny. The Biostar RX 560 4 GB LP (low profile) replaced an MSI n750TI-2GD5/OC nVidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti OC-2 GB, so you get some idea of the RX-560's size.

Neither of those are worth taking a chance on. You also don't want to buy from an Ebay seller with 7 total sales and one review / feedback. Too risky.

If you want a good RX560 at a reasonable price go with the Visiontek RX 560 at Amazon.
