Create a backup of your current macOS drive before you run the update/upgrade. Use Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) or SuperDuper to create the clone.

So is it safe to upgrade to Monterey from Big Sur? I got system upgrade notification but still hesitate to upgrade to Monterey, afraid things will broken.
yes I've been on Monterey since release with 0.7.5 and now thanks to Shaneee 0.7.6. You just need a compatible network solution the adapter I recommended or compatible Wi-Fi card.

Hi, could I use the above spec with 3 GPUs?: Radeon RX 6800, Radeon VII & Radeon RX 6900 XT.
Also hoping to connect Monitor via thunderbolt, is that possible?
Many thanks

Thanks so much for the EFI, it's been a couple of years since my main PC was a hackintosh and this board helped greatly! I've a few free days this weekend, so figured why not give it a go and see if I can get Monteray installed, and it's installing now! Cheers :)

Just looking for a confirmation - there isn't a patch for onboard 10g aquantia nics yet?

Not sure if this is what you need but there is a patch for the Aquantia 10Gbe card.

Screenshot 2022-01-31 at 00.10.42.png OpenCore Kernel/Kext > Patch

Clover Kext and Kernel patch in text and GUI formats.

Screenshot 2022-01-31 at 00.06.50.png Screenshot 2022-01-31 at 00.12.34.png

Don't know how this would be different from a builtin 10Gbe port, but it may be worth a try.

Your posted Find / Replace code seems different to what I have. Look for my post on Gigabyte Aorus Xtreme in this Success Stories thread for detailed Kernel/Patch description

OC 0.7.7 & Monterey 12.2 work fine here!

I did an upgrade from Big Sur. I just had to disable the Intel NIC, and use the Realtek one instead.



However I cannot get the OpenCore GUI working again. I cross-checked every configuration setting with the guide, and everything seems to be OK. Is anybody else also affected by this cosmetic issue?

I need to revise my comment, as it turned out I’m affected by slow boot issues due to owning a Samsung SSD drive. Just keep that in mind before you upgrade to Monterey. There are already several threads discussing about this issue, see for example https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/extremely-slow-6-7-minute-boot-time-with-monterey-12-0-1.316614/

I just ordered a Western Digital WD_BLACK SN850 NVMe SSD which should arrive by tomorrow. I don’t know if I manage to restore from a backup until this weekend, but from all online reports so far the WD_BLACK SN850 is the best SSD you can get for the most optimal macOS compatibility.

The endeavour was a full success! I cloned the Samsung SSD with CCC and its legacy boot support. Then I manually copied the contents of the old EFI partition on the Samsung SSD to the EFI partition on the new Western Digital SSD. After a short boot check from an external enclosure, I swapped the SSDs, and booted right into macOS. Then I just had to turn on FileVault again.

macOS Monterey 12.2 boots in 17 seconds :love:😍

Anyone tried OpenCore 0.7.8 ? Any config changes or other gotchas?

Hi, I will test X570 Aourus Master and I want to ask you about providing USBmap.Kext or entire EFI? Thanks
