My system:
ASUS PRIME X570-PROAMD Ryzen 9 3900X
Radeon RX 5700 XT GAMING OC 8G
Corsair 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 DRAM 3200MHz C16
Kingston SNV2S/1000G PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe M.2 2280
+ other SATA SSDs (Kingstone) and mechanical drives (WD and Seagate).
+WIFI/Bluetooth is Broadcom so it has native support, WTXUP-adaptador or something like that in AliExpress.
Main config:
https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/AMD/zen.html#starting-pointThe guide is great, I skipped Monterey so the last time I used it was for Big Sur, I tried skipping a bunch of thing, you shouldn’t, you should go point by point if you want to make it work the first time.

To boot the installer this was key (I skipped gathering files and went directly to the configs, that was a mistake):
AppleMCEReporterDisabler
- Required on macOS 12.3 and later on AMD systems, and on macOS 10.15 and later on dual-socket Intel systems.
- Affected SMBIOSes:
- MacPro6,1
- MacPro7,1
- iMacPro1,1
After install system was totally unstable, this fixed it: Booter→Quirks
Set RebuildAppleMemoryMap to False, EnableWriteUnprotector to True.

Post-Install:
Fix “Memory Modules Misconfigured”:https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore...al/memory.html#fixing-macpro7-1-memory-errors
If PlatformInfo -> CustomMemory is set to false it shows the real info and works. It is shown like this:
With mapping memory and removing RestrictEvents kext I got the following:
https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/universal/memory.html#mapping-our-memory
So I did it both ways to check if I could remove this alert:
I couldn’t, this is something else, I don’t know what.
Also RestrictEvents removes the PCI cards things, it looks cleaner and shows the correct CPU name so I went back to the first config.
Bridge for Ethernet:
If you use something like iStat to display network speed in the menu bar in my experience Intel I211 have some bug and don't report the download speed correctly. This was an issue in SmallTreeIntel82576.kext and still is at least for me in AppleIGB.kext
I added a comment with a workaround to a thread I found a while back: https://forum.amd-osx.com/threads/download-speed-for-i211-at-nic-not-showing.185/#post-3583
Disclaimer after a while I realize that upload speed was being duplicated, so it isn’t perfect but you have download.
Internal HDD shown as external:
Innie.kext fixed this: https://github.com/cdf/Innie/releases/tag/v1.3.1
It is mostly cosmetic but is nice to see the correct icon in finder.

Virtualization:
Nothing works. I tried a bunch of 6.x versions of VirtualBox nothing works. UTM does but is so bad and slow that it is better to dual boot into Windows and be done with it. If any one knows about something that works in Ventura please share!
Conclusion:
The Hackintosh works great, audio, sleep, stability, etc.Everything I tested was as it was in Big Sur.
Please let me know if you see any errors or things that could be done better.
It was some work so I thought I might share it, hope it helps if you are looking for info about X570 system and Ventura.
I attach my EFI folder OpenCore 0.9.1, note that you should add your own smbios, also note that I added things that aren’t needed. Added CleanNvram.efi and ResetSystem.efi while setting everything up, in Tools I have OpenCanopy.efi (I didn’t set it yet, most probably I’ll never do) Also I left the memory config but CustomMemory is set to false.
This app is great https://github.com/ic005k/OCAuxiliaryTools, besides what is shared in the docs, like ProperTree, etc.
