# Before you use

I recommend you use this as only a reference resource.
- Obviously, this build may not be the best one.
- This EFI contains additional kexts in config.plist rather than only the essential things for X570 + Zen2 CPU. You should remove them before using this on your PC.
In the config.plist file, I've replaced the private serial codes into the EDIT_HERE words because to keep my personal information safe.
- So if you are going to use this, you have to make sure that the EDIT_HERE texts are changed to yours. To generate the serial key, please refer to Dortania's OpenCore Guide. When you are about to generate one, you should select MacPro7,1 to properly use your machine.

## Another one you must check

From the recent AMD CPU patch, now we have to specify the CPU core counts to the "algrey - Force cpuid_cores_per_package" nodes. Currently, my EFI setup sets that for the 12-core CPU model because I'm using Ryzen 3900X.

algrey - Force cpuid_cores_per_package
- 10.13,10.14
  - B80C0000 0000
- 10.15,11.0
  - BA0C0000 0000
- 12.0
  - BA0C0000 0090

Please refer to the author's description to get further information.

- The microphone input on the front/back panel doesn't work.
- Have not tested line in/out and digital out.
The common Ryzentosh issues. Please refer to the CPU support part of Dortania's OpenCore Guide.
- Specific professional applications may need to be patched for AMD processors such as Adobe apps, Davinci Resolve, etc.
- Virtualization (Apple Hypervisor and the apps using this like AVD on Android Studio, Parallels) is not working but VirtualBox works.

I've got the SSDTs and configuring hints from the following links.

Hello all.

I'm using my Ryzentosh since 2019, when the right after I bought my 3900X system.
At that moment, I did have experience with Intel Hackintosh but didn't know anything about the AMD Hackintosh, so I searched a lot to make mine work flawlessly.
Every time when I faced an issue I searched the other EFI setups that are for a similar machine to mine and a guide for fixing that problem by my hand.
Finally I got configuring this setup, and I think it works really fine for me.

And I have been maintaining my EFI setup on my Github repository.
So, if you think this post is outdated, please check my Github repository too.

Any feedback welcomes

Thank you.

Hi man, thanks for your share. Was hoping it would solve the issue I'm having with waking from hibernation (kernel panic / black screen).
Any specific bios settings you'd recommend ?

Well, here's the problem: I know I need to get my CPU core count correct, or the system won't boot.

But your post, as well as a couple of others here, seem to refer to values that simply don't exist in the 0.7.5 config.plist.

Specifically, under Force cpuid_cores_per_package, I should see this string in your config.plist according to your post:

BA0C0000 0090

But that string doesn't occur. For example, in the cores_per_package section for 10.15 (Monterey), I see this "Find" value:

wegaAAAA

...and this "Replace" value:

ugwAAACQ

So at this point I don't know what's going on. I'd appreciate any pointers as to what I'm missing...

Hello.

Nothing more than the Dortania's guide. Please refer to,
Ryzen and Threadripper(17h and 19h) | OpenCore Install Guide (dortania.github.io)

Especially I disabled "Secure Boot", "CSM" and I enabled the "Above 4G decoding".

Hello,

I recommend using a dedicated tool for editing the "config.plist" file.
Please refer to these links.

Hi, awesometic,

I having black screen problem while installing Monterey OS, and I have exact configuration what you have and I copied your EFI and updated SMBIOS as per you said with MacPro7,1.
and even I get official update on my system but its not updating, its show apple logo with black screen, when I enable verbose mode then I got error message "EXITBS:START" Please help me out on this. Thanks in advance

That normally means you've not setup the kernel patches or enabled ProvideCurrentCpuInfo in the config.

ill share the EFI file, please help me out.

As I've said you've not setup the kernel patches. See here, https://forum.amd-osx.com/index.php?threads/new-amd-macos-corecount-patch-information.1948/

Start again with the orignal EFI you uploaded. You've borked a patch you shouldn't have touched. It's the first 3 you need to edit ( 0, 1 and 2 ). It's the Replace Value you change not the ReplaceMask.

Tutorial - New AMD macOS CoreCount patch Information

This is laid out in the AMD_Vanilla GitHub Readme but I'd thought I'd post here too incase of any questions. Patches are now universal across 15h, 16h, 17h and 19h by utilising the OpenCore Kernel Quirk ProvideCurrentCpuInfo Make sure to enable this quirk or the system won't boot. This quirks...

Restore this patch to it's original values, "algrey _commpage_populate - Remove romsr"

Your config only has two for the CoreCount. Seems to be missing the High Sierra patch that's all.

Thank you for your help @Shaneee , installation success, only problem is Bluetooth is not working.

Edhawk · Jan 18, 2022

Look to see if the Internal USB header port you connected your Fenvi card (Bluetooth module) to is being activated in macOS. Make sure the motherboard connector is firmly installed and if a half sized connector the correct way around.

I assume the WiFi works from the Fenvi card.

TTCesar · Jan 20, 2022

Hi all,
First of all I would like to thank "awesometic" for sharing his great work.
I also managed to install Hackintosh correctly with the original EFI from "awesometic", (since I have almost the same components) but only on macOS Big Sur.
Since when I install macOS Monterey, the Ethernet does not work for me.
The Kext I use is "SmallTreeIntel82576" and I read elsewhere that there are people confirming the same problem with this Kext.
I am completely new to this, I would really appreciate it if you could help me with the Ethernet problem in MacOS Monterey
Thanks

Aluveitie · Jan 20, 2022

Apple did some changes in Monterey that broke SmallTree. If you need Ethernet on Monterey, you'll have to buy a cheap, supported NIC. Be it a PCIe card or an USB dongle.

TTCesar · Feb 14, 2022

Thanks for your answer.
But now I have another problem, and that is that when I shut down MacOS, the computer restarts, and starts MacOS again.
And now I can only turn off the computer by pressing the power button on the case. Can somebody help me?
Thanks a lot
