macOS 11.0 Big Sur is Now Available on the Mac App Store

[ctib77]

I decided to install everything from scratch with OpenCore 0.6.3 (was using Clover previously), following their guide carefully from Dortania site, and my gosh, this is the first time a Hackintosh installation went smoothly with ZERO issues from the start for me!. Those guys at Dortania made a terrific job on that guide, if you follow all the changes in config.plist according to your CPU and other hardware, everything runs smooth!. I followed the advice to change the iMac 13,2 definition I had (with an Ivy Bridge) with an iMac 15,1 one and it worked buttery smooth. Everything works!. Well, it helped that I had a Fenvi PCI-E Wifi/BT bundle card with a supported Apple chipset, so even the Handoff and unlock with Apple watch works.

Success with updating from High Sierra after switching from Nvidia to Radeon. Everything works except putting computer to sleep and HWmonitor (lost a lot of readouts) Opencore was too complicated for me. Stuck with Clover build 5122. Will try to upgrade to 5126 later.

OpenCore 0.6.3

A lot of small issue to make it to the install process, but after that all is fine. My audio is even natively OK. Instead of clover wich never really worked.
I prefered a fresh install instead of an update cause hackintosh from a long time ... and a lot of trash built in the system

Intel Core i7-8700K @5.Ghz All Core
Gigabyte Z370 AORUS Gaming 7 Chipset LGA 1151

Corsair Vengeance LPX 32Go (2x16Go) DDR4 3200MHz C16 XMP 2.0
and an OLD R8 380X 4Go

Add to reinstalle it 3 time thow ... First time wanted to migrated old account with a simple relocation of my old user folder .... not a good idea
2 time ... format the disk with case sensitivity ... adobe suite was not agree, and cinebench R23 too by the way ^^

Cinebench R23
Single core: 1302

For now .... no problem !

Switched to OpenCore 0.6.3 from Clover on Catalina with a newly made config.plist and then updated to Big Sur. OpenCore is great and everything works!

Successfully migrated both hacks to Big Sur from Catalina, after switching both from Clover to OpenCore. OpenCore is totally beautiful. Perfect documentation. I was always disappointed with Clover documentation. Not so with OpenCore. I should have taken the plunge earlier. Everything works!

A little more than a half-hour between starting the download and booting into Big Sur... and more than the usual number of restarts (it felt like), but OpenCore always selected the right boot volume automatically (very refreshing). I was getting a little nervous toward the end, but when she booted up into that colorful background, everything appeared to be working, so... nice!

Smooth installation here. Upgraded to Opencore 0.6.3, used OCGen X to create fresh EFi, dropped in necessary files and everything works that did before. About 20 minutes with three or four reboots.

Asus p8z77, i5-3570K, RX 5500 XT, 16GB RAM, Clover 5126.
Works great!
Video performance grown up for 50% (92000 to 132000 in compute Geekbench 4)
iMac Pro 2017, sleep, H.264, H.265 full hardware support. Audio - USB e-mu 0204, LAN... Very smooth. No reason to downgrade.
Video rotate in Photo app (came in Big Sur) - is must have feature.
P.S.: missing "rocket" icon... new icon looks like androids "all apps"
