would you mind giving me a rough guide on what you did? i have a cmp 5,1 i need to replace, and have two 7910's sitting in front of me. one with dual quad core xeon, and another with a single 18c and 40gb of ram. thanks!
Simple follow this guide :

The only thing you need taking care of is: DISABLE 4GB IO MAPPING FOR T7910.

For a weird reason, I must DISABLE 4GB IO MAPPING.
If you have boot-arg npci=0x2000 (typical solution to halts after "PCI Configuration begins", and typically required on Xeon-class systems), it activates "Above 4G decoding" anyway.

@twanhines , yes it works well on macOS Ventura 13.1
thanks u. your efi is helpful.
and I did install Ventura with 2 cpu and rx6600 successfully. currently my hackintosh's audio is not working. I try to follow the guide: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/universal/audio.html#finding-your-layout-id, but it is not successful:
the audio chip set is ACL3220, so I followed ACL 280's layout ids(layout 3, 4, 11, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 21) to try with alcid=xx. there is no lucky. Do you mind give any suggestion?

@grandleaf, thank u too. confirmed "DISABLE 4GB IO MAPPING" is important.

I use a USB spdif connected to my receiver.

If you also want to monitor the CPU utilization or temperature, please use FakeSMC3 with plugin. The VirtualSMC and SMCDellSensor is broken for T7910. You can see the CPU's utilisation but no temperature. To Make his worse, he SMCDellSensors also makes your audio stutter. No matter the audio is through the external USB interface or HDMI or DP. Switch to FakeSMC with plugins fixed the problem for me (just figured it out today!)

Seems to be working fine with Ventura on my T7810, still installing. Currently with dual E5-2683 v4 (16c/32t each).
