Looking for my original Clover guide? It's still available right here.
Hackintosh Catalina Guide for Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Master (OpenCore)
This build is "Vanilla". I used this guide as a starting point.

Not Working (as expected)
- Built-in WIFI. This will very likely never work since it is the new Intel CNVi that macOS doesn't support.
- Onboard Bluetooth. I disabled it (HS14) because I have a natively supported Broadcom BCM94360CS2 WIFI/BT adapter anyways.
Not Yet Tested
- FileVault
Step By Step Instructions
My old Clover guide used to have Step by Step instructions but I decided not to write such instructions here for two reasons: it's a pain to keep up to date, and I literally just followed the OpenCore Desktop Guide. When in doubt, just look at my KEXTs, drivers and config.list for guidance.

See USB_MAP.md for a map of all the ports on the Aorus z390 Master.
