Been a minute since I configured a build based around this motherboard for a friend. I figured I'd check back in and give an update.
The install process was frustrating, perhaps because I was using a 5600 XT card, but with Pastry Chef's patient and invaluable assistance, finally got into Catalina, and my friend has been very pleased moving to this system from the dual core 2010 Mac Mini Server that I gave him many years ago to try his hand at the Macintosh operating system. I configured his system with OSX installed on a 256GB sata SSD, raided two more of the same drives to make his work volume, and threw a 3.5" spinner in for bulk storage. Everything seemed fairly well balanced, and I'd say the system worked out 99% perfect.
Perhaps the only hangup was that the wifi card never quite "fit" right with the front bracket - seemed to unlevel itself in the socket when i screwed it down, so had to leave it "loose", and never did get bluetooth working on that card, although probably not a huge deal for him. Instructions with the card were in Chinese, but I did run the bluetooth cable into a USB header on the mobo - He wasn't too worried about it and had a project that required immediate attention, so I never played with anything in Bios or spent any effort to troubleshoot. I did notice that I only had tow antenna connected out of the three on the card, but short of snipping the the microcup connector and soldering it onto a pad on the card I didn't see anywhere it could have gone. He didn't seem concerned with bluetooth at all so I didn't worry about it much, but I will say it kinda troubled my OCD a little bit not having that final item resolved, lol.
One thing I noticed about the whole process (this was my second hackintosh build so far) was that the guides on the site seem a little dated, and searching for simple questions was cumbersome. That's why I really do, once more, want to express my profound appreciation for the help that Pastry Chef has given everyone in this thread. If I had to do it again, I would perhaps choose a different mobo - I think I was going on my years old assumption that Gigabyte was the most "Golden" of builds, lol.
Guess I did have one final "question", though I think I know the answer, but his kid wants to use his Oculus Rift on the system, so I had him buy a NVMe drive and I'm gonna throw windows on there - but since the guides are still recommending formatting in mac os journaled for the hack side of things, just wanted to check the recommendation that a separate drive for windows should be configured by OSX first as GPT partition and then a standard uEFI install of Windows will get everything working- have to admit It would be easier if I can just configure the drive here at my house on my Windows system and then just drop it into his build and have Clover play nicely on the boot screen,
Mainly, I wanted to check in a say thanks. I see that the site is now supporting discussions on Ryzen builds, so, who knows, if I ever migrate off my Nvidia RTX gpu i might give a go at dual booting my gaming computer.
