Hackintosh Gigabyte Z390 Pro + i9-9900k + RX 590 + Mojave - Random Rebooting

Hello,

This is my first Hackintosh build.

[Hardware Specs]

  • Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro non-wifi
  • Intel Core i9-9900k
  • Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 2400 MHz DDR4 DRAM 32gb
  • Sapphire Radeon RX 590 Nitro+ 8gb
  • Samsung 970 EVO m.2
  • Fenvi T919 wifi/bluetooth
  • NZXT Kraken X62 280mm
  • NZXT H510 case

I followed the Vanilla guide but it would get stuck during install, so I followed the Vanilla guide but used the Kexts and BIOS settings from this build guide that has a very similar build:

[Kexts I used from the build guide]

  • AppleALC.kext
  • FakeSMC.kext (Rehabman version, with accompanying FakeSMC sensor kexts)
  • FakeSMC_ACPISensors.kext
  • FakeSMC_CPUSensors.kext
  • FakeSMC_GPUSensors.kext
  • FakeSMC_LPCSensors.kext
  • FakeSMC_SMMSensors.kext
  • Lilu.kext
  • USBInjectAll.kext

  • WhateverGreen.kext

  • ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi

  • AptioInputFix-64.efi

  • AptioMemoryFix-64.efi

  • EmuVariableUefi-64.efi

  • HFSPlus.efi

The install went smoothly, however, the system would crash within seconds after logging in to OSX. So, I changed the BIOS settings to the following:

  • Enter BIOS → Press F12 → Enter Setup

  • Save & Exit → Load Optimized Defaults

  • BIOS → Windows 8/10 Features → Other OS

  • BIOS → CSM Support → Enabled

  • Peripherals → Initial Display Output → PCIe 1 Slot

  • Peripherals → Trusted Computing → Security Device Support → Disable

  • Peripherals → Intel(R)Bios Guard → Intel BIOS Guard Support → Disable

  • Peripherals → USB Configuration → Legacy USB Support → Enabled

  • Peripherals → USB Configuration → XHCI Hand-off → Enabled

  • Peripherals → Network Stack Configuration → Network Stack → Disabled

  • Peripherals → SATA And RST Configuration → SATA Mode Selection → AHCI

  • Chipset → Vt-d → Disabled

  • Chipset → Internal Graphics → Disabled

  • Chipset → Audio Controller → Enabled

  • Chipset → Above 4G Decoding → Disabled

  • Chipset → Wake on LAN Enable : Disabled

  • Power → Platform Power Management → Disabled

  • Power → CEC 2019 Ready → Disabled

  • Power → ErP → Disabled (can be enabled or disabled, your choice !)

  • Power → RC6 (Render Standby) → Disabled

  • MIT → Advanced Memory Settings → Extreme Memory Profile (X.M.P) → Profile1

  • MIT -> Advanced Voltage Settings -> Advanced Power Settings -> CPU Internal AC/DC Load Line: Power Saving

Now, the system is somewhat stable. Everything works such as Wifi, Bluetooth, Airdrop, Sound, iMessage, shutdown/restart/sleep. With normal use, such as browsing the internet or watching Youtube, it might randomly reboot 2-3 times during the day. When it reboots, it just goes to a black screen and reboots with no crash report.

I built this system so I can do video editing in Final Cut Pro, however, if I try to edit video or load any presets, the system instantly reboots every time. Again, to a black screen with no crash report.

I can run GeekBench and Cinebench and the benchmarks are on par with similar builds and it doesn't crash.

So, I'm stuck on what to do next, the system is unusable at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
