Hi,
I currently have a B450i and I might be swapping it out for a X570:

What do I need to change in my config please?
I remember seeing something about enable this if a B550M but not if B450, but I can't find it now, when looking at the guide, nor much on X570.

Will I be able to still edit my EFI in Windows using an app once I've mounted the partition?

As I was going to swap boards with my friend, so I was planning on editing the config before I shut the rig down, then removing the motherboard, and fitting the new one, and booting up.

Thanks :)

Merry Christmas to all my fellow EULA breakers ;) :P
 
Here is an OC 1.0.5 EFI from my Asus ROG STRIX X570-F Gaming system. You can use this EFI as a template for your own Asus motherboard.

Just to confirm I have removed entries related to my Aquantia 10G NIC and Broadcom WiFi/BT components. But have left NootRX.kext in place which I use for my RX 6700 XT. You may need to replace this kext with WhateverGreen.kext.

I would recommend using Corpnewt's SSDTTime to generate custom SSDT's for your motherboard, using the system DSDT.aml and other ACPI tables rather than using mine or generic SSDT's from the Dortania guide.


I would normally recommend that you use options 1, 2, 4, 5, A & C from the list of options.

Screenshot 2025-12-18 at 22.49.30.png SSDTTime options as seen when using the script in macOS.

If you use the script in Windows 10 or 11, then another option is enabled, which allows you to download/extract the full set of ACPI tables from the system. This is something I use when I dual boot Windows and macOS on a Hack.

You will need to use/add your Serial Number, SystemUUID, MLB and ROM entries for a MacPro7,1 system definition to the config.plist before it is ready for use.

Hope this is helpful.

Thanks you legend!

So I can't just change a few things in my existing one, like with the B550 versus B450 arguments? As that was what I was hoping to do.
