[GUIDE] OC Monterey Gigabyte B550 Vision D + AMD Ryzen 5900X + RX550 + Samsung 1TB 970 Evo Plus

Hi @Middleman!

Just for benchmarking:
  • I also recently installed MacOS with OpenCore. Initially installed Catalina, then upgrated to Monterey 12.3.1
  • My set up is pretty similar: 5900x + Asus Tuf gaming B550 plus + 5600XT
  • Geekbench 5 CPU multi-score is sensibly higher than yours (13k+), so probably you can improve it as well

I also significantly increased GPU score by using Shaneee's PAT fixing patch instead of default Algrey's patch. Score increased from 41k to 57k.

Have different mobo, my Wifi and bluethooth devices seems work ok.

Let me know if you need config setup or other info.

That's amazing. Yes sure, would love to know!

See attached EFI's folder.

For clarity I marked some items in the images below:
- I use macpro7,1
- not sure that ProcessorType line was in dortania's guide
- there are 2 PAT fixes, only one of them should be on. Shaneee's patch gives better GPU performance but might cause issues with sound (I didnt have), Algrey's fix is default one.

Thanks for this, I'll check it out!
 
Full sound ports including digital out with volume adjustment
Did you test line in or mic to record directly from onboard sound card ?
On Big Sur these lines are not working.
Thanks !
 
thanks for sharing, will try on MSI B450M motar max
 
Thanks a ton @Middleman.
Jumping from working Intel to Zen3 platform and got things finally working on B550 Vision D-P.
Just need to clean out most of the unnecessary files & code from your EFI template :)

Hi Draft,

Sorry for the late reply, I had somehow totally missed your post before!
For the line-in and mic ports, I did do a check on them today and no they didn't work. They will need fixing. I am wondering if something like ALCPlugfix will do the job > https://github.com/the-braveknight/alc-plug-fix
or perhaps Headkaze's PinConfigurator > https://github.com/headkaze/PinConfigurator
 
Thanks for the post.

I have a pretty similar Gigabyte Aorus B550 Elite AX V2 + Ryzen 5900X.

Do you think that I can start an installation using this attached EFI / post guide ?
Or can you recommend another installing guide more appropriate for my specific build?

I have an NVIDIA GTX 1060 that I need to disable. (but still plugged there for Windows booting.)
And an old GTX 760 that should work as macOS native as far as I know.
Now are both GPUs plugged into my Windows10 and it works.

Regards.
