@maeluse,Hi everyone,
I would have a very innocent question to all of you. I plan maybe to switch my 10700K to an 11th gen CPU. My BIOS version is old. I did not and never had to update it since it was recommended back then by @CaseySJ in his configuration guide. I would then need to update my BIOS.
Should I expect any misfortunes?... regarding the functioning of the thunderbolt ports for example? or is it all history with the latest version of OpenCore and it will work right away?
If you are upgrading your CPU I have a guide for it here you can follow > https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...igabyte-vision-d-i9-11900k-amd-rx6600.317472/
Although my board here is a Z590 the OC files roughly work the same - the most important is establishing the CPUID spoofing to Comet Lake values under Kernel > Emulate and that you use AppleALC kext instead of AppleALCU as in my build. You will likely however need a separate DGPU like RX580 or RX6600 as the Intel 11th gen's IGPU won't work. You may indeed also have to update the BIOS. As for functionality, I haven't noticed anything too different - the Thunderbolt ports work as does everything else.
