UPDATE SUCCESSFUL OC 0.6.5 AND BIG SUR - MSI Z390, i9 9900KF, MSI OC 5700 XT

After many many countless attempts and frustrations on updating my Hackintosh over exactly the past 1 year, I have finally managed to update it.

SPECS:

Motherboard: MSI Z390-A PRO
CPU: Intel Core i9 9900KF
GPU: AMD MSI Radeon 5700 XT MECH OC
EFI: Taken from u/simoncoulton (his thread) and updated for Big Sur. I have also created a GitHub repository sharing the updated EFI. Link to the repository

Update Process:

  1. Firstly, I booted into my existing Catalina 10.15.3 desktop using Clover (my original boot loader)
  2. Started installing Big Sur from my old working Catalina 10.15.3 desktop using System Preferences
  3. Updated the EFI and OpenCore version to 0.6.5 as I had used previously mentioned 0.5.8
  4. Booted into OpenCore 0.6.5
  5. Selected "Mac OS Installer"
  6. The rest was left to the computer to do its thing!

Enjoy peeps :)
