I was having a hard time because there weren't many guides using the Z390 Aorus Elite motherboard, but thank you for writing the guide.
I also want to install the Hackintosh, but it is not easy to install...

So, can you tell me how you set the bios?

And thank you for EFI folder.

Hi,
I tried using your EFI and after booting from it, I got stuck in the apple logo with the black background screen.
Any suggestions?

Are you usingBIOS settings hear at the forum?

STEP 3: Recommended BIOS Settings
If you're installing on a recommended CustoMac desktop with AMI UEFI BIOS, the options are simple. For other systems make sure to set your BIOS to Optimized Defaults, and your hard drive to AHCI mode. Here are standard AMI UEFI BIOS settings for
Gigabyte AMI UEFI BIOS, Gigabyte AWARD BIOS, ASUS AMI UEFI BIOS, and MSI AMI UEFI BIOS.

1. To access BIOS/UEFI Setup, press and hold Delete on a USB Keyboard while the system is booting up
2. Load Optimized Defaults
3. If your CPU supports VT-d, disable it
4. If your system has CFG-Lock, disable it
5. If your system has Secure Boot Mode, disable it
6. Set OS Type to Other OS
7. If your system has IO Serial Port, disable it
8. Set XHCI Handoff to Enabled
9. If you have a 6 series or x58 system with AWARD BIOS, disable USB 3.0
10. Save and exit.

If not then please, share your bios setting?
