Working Good :

  • Restart, and Shutdown (OS X)
  • DP and HDMI Graphics
  • Ethernet
  • Sleep
  • Bluetooth
  • USB 2.0,
  • Wifi (although not thoroughly tested)

Partially Working :

  • USB 3.0 (most things work but had issues with Audio Interface on USB 3.0, but works fine on USB 2.0)
  • Restart (Windows 10) - occasionally BSOD

Not working:

  • Apple ID (cannot communicate with the server)

Details:

  • Built this machine roughly 2 years ago and have tried a few different Clover and OpenCore installs, but this is by far the best functioning Hackintosh install to date. Everything worked almost out of the box with very little customization, but I have to give credit to great preparation and 5+ years of experience with kexts and bootloaders in general.

Kexts:

  • AirportBrcmFixup
  • AppleALC
  • AppleMCEReporterDisabler
  • Lilu
  • NVMeFix
  • RealtekRTL8111
  • VirtualSMC
  • WhateverGreen

Boot:

Dual booting Windows 10. Windows 10 is on my M.2 and OS X is on the SSD drive. I have my HDD split in 2 equal 1TB partitions, one for each operating system.

Software:

I run a web development and design freelance business and I'm also into music production, so I wanted to relay info on the software I've got working. I've seen a lot of posts questioning both design and music production on Hackintosh and specifically Ryzentosh builds, so hopefully this is useful. With this build I've switched all of my business and music production to my Hackintosh build. I only use Windows for gaming now.

Working:

  • Adobe Photoshop 2020 21.0.2
  • Adobe Illustrator 2021 25.0
  • Adobe XD 34.1.12.9
  • Adobe Premier 2020 14.8.0 (Build 39)
  • Adobe After Effects 2020 17.5.0 (Build 40)
  • Sketch 52.6
  • Ableton Live 10 Suite 10.1.25 (with functioning Serum, Maschine, etc.)
  • Logic Pro X 10.4.1
  • Steam - I was able to try a few smaller games like Terraria that ran surprisingly well

Not Working:

  • Adobe InDesign - still can't find a fix for this bad boy, but I use Sketch more anyway

Thanks for giving my build a look! Please feel free to ask any questions, I'm pretty active on Reddit.
