Installation Notes:
EFI inspired from this great thread by @CaseySJ and from Dortania OpenCore Guide:
OpenCore Install Guide
All SSDTs I created them manually to fit as well as possible this Motherboard and this CPU.
What Works:
Native Power management
Graphics
Audio
FaceTime / Messages
Intel WiFi / Bluetooth
Ethernet
Apple TV
Quick Look, Preview
DRM
Aura controller with Aureal app
Boot-chime
What Doesn’t Works:
Sidecar - requires either an iGPU or an Apple T2 chip
AirDrop - needs Broadcom-based WiFi/BT module
iGPU - UHD 770 is not supported by macOS
USB Port Map:
Included USBPorts.kext is created and optimized to fit my needs and my case.
I strongly recommend that you create your own USB Ports.kext that fits your needs and your case.

Geekbench 6 Benchmark:
OpenCanopy:
- HideAuxiliary is set to YES
- This option will hide supplementary entries, such as macOS recovery and tools, in the picker. Hiding auxiliary entries may increase boot performance on multi-disk systems. You can press space at the picker to show these entries
