OpenCore Hackintosh for Z390-A Pro Motherboard

This EFI was tested in MacOS Sonoma using i7-9700K processor with iGPU

This EFI is based on the core version provided from Dortania's guide with some adjustments to work on MSI Z390-A Pro. You can't use this EFI without generating your own data with GenSMBIOS. Seriously, it WILL NOT BOOT. Current OpenCore supported version: 1.0.2

Hardware used to create this EFI

Component Hardware
Motherboard MSI Z390-A Pro
CPU Intel Core i7-9700K
dGPU RTX 3060 OC 12 GB (EVGA)
iGPU Intel UHD 630
RAM 16 GB DDR4 3200 MHz

Any dGPU will be disabled with this EFI. Check the instructions below if you have a supported one.

Requirements to edit the EFI

In GenSMBIOS, use iMac19,1 as parameter to generate info. In ProperTree, go to PlatformInfo -> Generic and place the corresponding data in their respective fields:

GenSMBIOS generated info config.plist
Type SystemProductName
Serial SystemSerialNumber
Board Serial MLB
SmUUID SystemUUID

As mentioned early, any dGPU will be disabled. To enable a supported dGPU, go to NVRAM -> Add -> 7C436110-AB2A-4BBB-A880-FE41995C9F82 -> boot-args and remove the -wegnoegpu flag.

BIOS Configuration

In order to boot this EFI, you'll need to configure the motherboard BIOS. I've made a custom configuration file, and you can download it by clicking here.

How to install this configuration file

First of all, make sure to be in BIOS version E7B98IMS.1E1. If you aren't in this version, please update your system. You can find newer versions in MSI website. Futhermore, backup your current config to avoid mistakes.

First, click in the advanced button, at the top

Go to the OC Profile section, at the right

Select the OC Profile Load from USB option

Select the downloaded file in your USB device and press enter

If everything is done successfully, you'll see this screen:
