If that was the reason then everyone who used @scope666 EFI would have kernel panic. The same version of VirtualSMC or similar versions are used by almost everyone who has a hack. I had the same board back when he started this thread and jump started my build using his uploads. I never had anything close to what you are experiencing, never had a crash. There's something very, very odd going on with your hardware IMHO.
Did you ever do the memory stress test?

I took out some of the device properties for the iGPU, doubt it will make much difference but you can try it.

I used their bios preset and changed my ssd from being in Sata 5/6 to sata 3/4
Everything is working now including internet.. no crash yet and I didn’t have to do a fresh install.

Thank you so much for your help
Cheers

BRO thank you !!! I put my ssd from SATA 5/6 to 3/4 and everything is working )) I noticed to that I had fastboot on??? I swear I had that off… idk what the issue was or how many.. but using your bios preset fixed everything.. thank you so much

Yeah, I'm a nerd who reads motherboard manuals ... I purposely avoided SATA ports 5/6.

PS: you can probably go back and set the Q-FAN stuff how you like. I was playing with settings because my fans tend to run slow after I wake from sleep.

PPS: Make sure my RAM timings / voltage match what you have in your system.

I remember the issue. I don't know how I ended up getting past it in windows.. and then it reminded me about it when I made all the changes. Your ram I think is 1.2V 3200mhz CL16. Mines 1.35v 3600mhz CL18 I guess it's worth changing some things lol but if anything I think it's good for now since it just seems capped. Do I need a real Mac adresse ? nvm lol I see that I do.. imma go grab that hahahh that answers my next question

No, my RAM is also 1.35v ... but 3200 Mhz

Thanks for what you said. When you said this it clicked that it was deff stuff in my BIOS so I knew a preset of Scope666’s BIOS would fix it

Hello, i'm trying to make a build very similar but can't come up to the install menu of mac os Monterey. Using @scope666 EFI OC 0.8.8 and bios settings (I just change infos for my memory)

I have exact same mother board and CPU, no (GPU I want to use IGPU), only 1 SSD SATA connected and 2*16Go Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200 a the moment. I made the usb installer from mac os following dortania guide.

I tried to change some things in the config.plist without success. Here is the log file if somethings tell someone.

First error seems to be there :

Sounds like issues with the bootloader..

I would create a new Bootloader using windows and maybe use ventura..
Also I highly recommend a new second SSD for mac. it's a lot easier
Also I pretty sure if I remember correctly that I had to format a partition and I had to format it in whatever format it is that Macs use..
How I did that I dont remember...

Hopefully something from here helps

Thanks for the tips, it's a brand new build (no windows). I tried a few things : format my SSD to macos format using another mac, made a Ventura usb installer, change a few things in config.plist
It can now boot to the macos installer screen if I use the front usb port but it freeze after few second. I'm trying to find any info on dortiania guides but I can't understand what's going on.

EDIT : I was able to complete the installation by setting my bios from optimized default + recommended settings and I had to disable secure boot between the first restart during the installation. Now it's time for post installation operations !

That's weird my Geekbench multi-core score is 8650 witch is quite far from @scope666 (around 11000)

New month, new version ... you know the drill.

BTW, I can control my fans now via the H115i using Liquidctl. I run this script when I boot up:

[email protected] ~ % cat cool.sh
#!/bin/bash
liquidctl -m H115i initialize --pump-mode balanced
liquidctl -m H115i  set fan1 speed 20 20 40 70 50 100
liquidctl -m H115i  set fan2 speed 20 20 40 70 50 100
sleep 2
liquidctl -m H115i status
