Comments​

That's a small upgrade of my previous build. The main aim of a new build is to make it more powerful and stable. I've already done the following:

• Replaced the previous RX 580 with a new RX 6800 XT. I just added `agdpmod=pikera` to my `boot-args` and it works;
• Replaced the previous Samsung 970 EVO 500GB (macOS) and 860 EVO 500GB (Windows) with a one multiboot WD_BLACK SN850X 1TB following this guide. I'm going to write a separate post about this because there were a few interesting things about drive migration and making multibooting OpenCore drive;
• Updated OpenCore from 0.8.8 to 0.9.7;
• Update macOS to the latest Ventura version;
