bubski / intel-i9-10900-gigabyte-z490-vision-g-hackintosh

Hello folks, I have successfully installed macOS 10.15.5(initial setup) on my PC.

Tested working version:

• macOS Catalina 10.15.5~10.15.6

Bootloader

Opencore 0.5.9

Hardware

• Intel i9-10900 (Locked version)
• Gigabyte Z490 Vision G:
  • Audio: Realtek ALC1220-V
  • 2.5Gb Ethernet: Intel I225-V
• RAM: 16GB * 2 Kingston 2666 MHz
• dGPU: MSI Radeon™ RX 580 ARMOR 8G OC
• Wireless chip: Fenvi T919
• Display: ASUS MX27UC 4k Display
• SMBIOS: iMac19,1
• BIOS version: F6

Benchmark

https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/2412288

Working

• Audio: Realtek ALC1220-V (AppleALC.kext, layout-id=7, device-id=0xA170, FakeID.kext, FakePCIID_Intel_HDMI_Audio.kext)

• USB: All ports working, USB map is shown below

• Ethernet: Intel I225-V 2.5Gb

  1. Add device property:

     <dict>
     	<key>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1C,0x1)/Pci(0x0, 0x0)</key>
     	<dict>
     		<key>device-id</key>
     		<data>8hUAAA==</data>
     	</dict>
     </dict>

  2. Create custom FakeID-kext "FakePCIID_Intel_I225-V.kext".

• dGPU: RX 580 8GB.
  Works OOB, supports HiDPI in 4K display. DRM also works with shikigva=80 in boot-args.

• iGPU: UHD 630 (headless mode + dGPU)
  Using AAPL,ig-platform-id: 0300923E and everything works OOB.
  Sidecar tested by rjenny509

• Bluetooth & Wi-Fi: Fenvi T919
  Works OOB. Bluetooth's internal USB port needs to be configured in custom UIAC.aml.

• Native NVRAM

• Sleep/Wake (10.15.6 have sleep efi failure issues)

• Reboot/Shutdown

Not/Partially Working

• iGPU UHD-630

  1. Using only iGPU:

     AAPL,ig-platform-id: 07009B3E
     

     • Safari can't open www.fb.com
     • Firefox quit when opening
     • VMware Fusion display problem (VM quit when loading vmware tool's display driver)
     • Can't change account profile picture
     • Problems above are fixed after removing frambuffer patch
     • iGPU HDMI output not working (Displayport is fine)

  2. Using iGPU + dGPU:
     Doesn't show UHD 630 in SystemReport/Graphics

     1. AAPL,ig-platform-id: 07009B3E

        AAPL,ig-platform-id: 07009B3E
        

     • Long boot time (about 30~40 seconds)
     • iGPU HDMI output not working (Displayport is fine)
     • iGPU successfuly tested in Geekbench 5 (https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/compute/1021988)

     2. AAPL,ig-platform-id: 0300923E (Current setting)

        AAPL,ig-platform-id: 0300923E
        Fully working.

USB Ports

Using USBMap to create custom SSDT-UIAC.aml.

Repo: https://github.com/corpnewt/USBMap

Audio

Needed:

• AppleALC.kext
• FakeID.kext
• FakePCIID_Intel_HDMI_Audio.kext
• layout-id=7
• device-id=0xA170

Layout-id and device-id is injected via the device properties.

<key>DeviceProperties</key>
	<dict>
		<key>Add</key>
		<dict>
			<key>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1F,0x3)</key>
			<dict>
				<key>device-id</key>
				<data>cKEAAA==</data>
				<key>layout-id</key>
				<data>BwAAAA==</data>
			</dict>
		</dict>
	</dict>

Bluetooth/Wi-Fi

Work OOB. Wi-Fi, bluetooth, airdrop and handoff works.

CFG-Lock

• Before

  Can't unlock CFG-lock. So I enabled AppleCpuPmCfgLock and AppleXcpmCfgLock in order to boot.

  I followed https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Desktop-Guide/extras/msr-lock.html. But error occurs when extracting exported bin file. I guess it's beacuse of the strange BIOS map on this board.

  

• Now

  Unlocked CFG-Lock via CFGLock.efi, thanks to this post. So AppleCpuPmCfgLock and AppleXcpmCfgLock is disabled.
  Updated BIOS to version F6, it have native CFG Lock switcher in BIOS menu.

BIOS Setting

• Disable
  • FastBoot
  • CSM Support
  • Secure Boot
• Enable
  • VT-x
  • VT-d (Enable DisableIoMapper in config.plist)
  • Above 4G Decoding
  • Hyper-Threading
  • Onboard GPU Memory: 64MB
