Took me three months but I finally got it to work using the latest version of Clover:
Mobo: ASUS Z10PE-D16 WS with latest BIOS
CPU: Intel Xeon E5-2667 v3 (Haswell-E) x2
GPU: AMD Radeon 5700 XT running dual monitors
Ram: 16GB DDR4 PC-2133 ECC Reg x8
HDD: Intel NVMe SSD PCIe P3600
SMBIOS: iMac15,1 (iMacpro1,1 will cause restart loop on boot with Haswell-E CPUs; might work with v4 Broadwell-E CPUs)
To successfully use the Radeon 5700 XT with this setup requires:
1. Latest versions of Lilu.kext and Whatevergreen.kext
2. agdpmod=pikera in Clover bootflags
3. Make sure that Inject Intel, Inject ATI, and Inject NVidia are all made false. Unchecking them in Clover will not do the trick. Check them off first, then edit config.plist and change "true" to "false".
4. Make sure RadeonDeInit is checked off.
Others on the forum have experienced the notorious reboot loop bug when starting Catalina if the Radeon 5700 XT is plugged in. The solution of adding #2 above doesn't work for everyone. In my case, all of the above must be correct in config.plist to allow successful boot into Catalina.
EFI attached. Cheers!
