Catalina 10.15.1 works great so far! (Ryzen, 5700XT, OpenCore)

Got my first Hackintosh running!

My specs:

  • AMD Ryzen 5 2600X
  • 16GB RAM
  • X470-I
  • RX 5700XT (Reference Model)
  • Samsung 860 M.2 SSD

My kexts I used:

  • Lilu
  • WhatEverGreen
  • VirtualSMC
  • NullCPUPowerManagement
  • AppleMCEReporterDisabler
  • AirportBrcmFixup
  • VoodooHDA (AppleALC don't work even if I add the correct ID)

The setup was easier than expected, the only problem I ran into was that I can't use 5700XT for the installation part because of graphic glitches (tried several things, change from DP to HDMI, different boot arguments etc.) luckily I still got my RTX2060, with this the installation ran smooth.

Everything works and feels like my MacBook Pro tbh, only thing which don't work is WiFI & Bluetooth. My mainboard has WiFi and Bluetooth but it won't be recognized. WiFi isn't that important for me but Bluetooth would be cool because of AirDrop and Sidecar, any tips? Is it even possible to use the intern Bluetooth adapter from my mainboard?

I tried Sidecar with a cable, the iPad got recognized but wouldn't load for some reason. I could activate Sidecar but only got a black screen. Any recommendation regarding which cable I should get?

Sound only works with VoodooHDA correctly but haven't notice any downsides using Voodoo, so I'll stick to it for the moment.

Blender unfortunately only use my CPU for render which don't seem optimal for some reason, Cinema4D works way better in this case it even recognized my GPU.
