Hi all,
after reading several posts about the ease of bringing an RX 580 to life on a hackintosh, I decided to buy one.
Today I spent the whole day trying to make it work and I wasn't successful, which is very frustrating.
It is a Sapphire RX 580 NITRO+ 4GB, which has been reported to for fine.
I placed the Lilu and WhateverGreen kexts in the EFI/CLOVER/KEXTS/OTHER folder.
Than I read I have to turn on the RadeonDeInit, which I have done.
Always I got stuck on boot on the Apple logo with the progress bar.
Someone adviced to change the SMBIOS to MacPro 6,1. With this my boot process got stuck just at the beginning.
I also tried to update the Clover version to the newest one and I think this also made some problems.
I use Sierra 10.12.6 and I can't change to High Sierra as half of my apps would not function anymore.
I will be grateful for any advice!
