hello,
sorry for answering this thread after one year. I'm using this Asrock Z370m ITX/ac still with Mojave 10.14.6 and clover. I'm not familiar with opencore. What do I have to change in config.plist and in OC-KEXT-folder to get your EFI running with i5-8400 and HD630, i.e. w/o external graphics card? You mention Monterey. Is there a chance to use such an EFI with Ventura as well?

check the device properties from here:

Desktop Coffee Lake | OpenCore Install Guide

and to use Ventura, you would have to update your kexts and OpenCore versions

thank you for the reply.
What I find in your link is that I have to add:

Key	Type	Value
AAPL,ig-platform-id	Data	07009B3E
framebuffer-patch-enable	Data	01000000
framebuffer-stolenmem	Data	00003001

If I compare to the config.plist in the EFI above, I find:
<key>AAPL,ig-platform-id</key>
<data>BwCbPg==</data>
<key>framebuffer-patch-enable</key>
<data>AQAAAA==</data>

These are the values for RX570? I am asking, because I have seen comments that for igpu only the value 07009B3E should be inserted. Maybe stolenmem I can omit because I can set it in BIOS.

no, that is the settings for your iGPU
