EFI for OpenCore(v0.7.0) to Hackintosh. Currently, I will say it's 95% perfect. I will continue to improve in the future (until I am satisfied or lose patience).

EFI for My Hackintosh ITX

This is the EFI file for my sexy ITX.

Thanks for the Dortania's OpenCore Install Guide. I won't get this far without this thorough tutorial.

Hardware

  • Motherboard: ROG STRIX B360-I GAMING
  • CPU: Intel Core i5-9400
  • Memory: Klevv DDR4 U-DIMM STANDARD MEMORY 2666 8GBx2
  • Wireless Card: BCM94360CS2(Replaced the original onboard wireless card)
  • GPU: GIGABYTE Radeon RX5500XT OC 8G

Software

  • OpenCore: 0.7.6

  • BIOS:

  • USB Creation Platform: MacOS

  • Tested Compatible MacOS: macOS Monterey 12.1

Precautions

  • To make the iMessage and FaceTime work, you need to find a set of Serial, Board Serial and SmUUID.
  • I won't be responsible for any potential hardware issue or data loss. So make sure you over-thought the risk and backup your data before using this EFI.
  • I'm using an original disassembled Apple wireless card. If you don't have one, you won't be able to use Wi-Fi, Airdrop, handoff and other functions that require this hardware support.

Current Progress

  • Multiple video output works (one 4K Monitor through DP and one 1080p Monitor through HDMI).
  • Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work. Including AirDrop, Handoff, Sidecar due to the BCM94360CS2.
  • CPU turbo works.
  • Hardware accelerating with eGPU and iGPU works.
  • USB works.
  • Sleep and wake up partly works (see Issue section for detail).
  • Audio works (may not be the most suitable layout, several layouts worked for me).
  • iMessage and FaceTime work.
  • Apple ID works.

Issue

  • The greatest problem that concerns me is sleep. The fans may start to spin automatically but won't light the monitor up. Except for this "issue", she can sleep and wake up perfectly. I don't know if this is normal. If anyone knows it's normal or the solution, please let me know :)
  • The second minor issue is the HDMI audio not working. Good news is that audio through PD ports is working smoothly.

Tail

If you have any suggestion or question, here's my email: [email protected]

Hope you will enjoy this EFI.

Bon appetite!
