Sorry buddy, I missed your original message.

Big Sur will work with OpenCore 0.6.4 or higher although I recommend you use V0.6.6 from the off.

OpenCore is free from bios version dependency as there’s no dsdt involved so your free to stick on the bios revision your currently using or use the latest version available and just dial back in the settings on page one. Your choice.

 

to upgrade to big sur update to OpenCore 0.6.6 first.

 

As for usb randomly cutting out, well that a Z390 Pro bug and it also happens on a few other Gigabyte boards including AMD X570 and B550 boards. As far as I know it’s still not been fixed on the Z390 Pro and there’s not a lot that can be done about it other then bugging Gigabyte. (It happens in windows too).

 

Tip - Download the latest OC EFI from here and copy your serial number, uuid, MLB and MAC Address from your old config.plist to the new one and stick it on a USB macOS Install drive and make sure it works for you. Follow the steps on the install update notice that you can find on the top of page 172. Everything you need to know and download is there waiting for you. (The V0.6.6 EFI will work with Mojave, Catalina or Big Sur)

Im sorry I'm late to thank you about this. But I got into some personal problems and couldn't keep following the forum. 

 

Thanks for your help @AudioGod, honestly you have saved me a lot of time

Here @kiko89,

Try this is out for size.

 

OC 068 MacMini8,1 Z390 Pro IGPU ONLY EFI.zip 3.94 MB · 5 downloads  

 

Let me know if it works for you please bud.

To be used with SMBIOS MacMini8,1 (new details needed)

I did this blind so it might be a disaster of a EFI...lol

It's hard to do a universal IGPU Only EFI as the frame buffers don't always match up.

 

 

 

It works ok but few minutes after boot i got huge lag of mouse pointer.

Thanks for trying buddy, Try resetting you’re nvram, The lag should be straight away if the framebuffers are wrong and if you have the 5700xt in there your need to remove it or bypass it to test properly unfortunately.

Hahahaha, Good move brother. 5700XT go for stupid money now days. I can get a 6800xt for less then I can sell my 5700xt for. (A lot less) Go Figure? :hysterical:

 

Ok then in that case the frame buffers are not aligned. I tried...lol

This is why I have never released a igpu only version of the EFI, way to many variables from system to system.

Could anybody else that try’s this EFI please report if it’s working for them or not and if I get enough confirmations and near to no fails then I will add it to the EFI collection and keep it up to date.

@kiko89 Is V5 of the iGPU only EFI working for you too now buddy?

Out of general interest, I tried it, and the only thing I've noticed is a longer pinwheel on the desktop while menu items loaded up, than with my RX580 dGPU. Colors anecdotally seem flatter, but pulldown menus and the Dock still transmit color gradients and very general shapes from behind.

 

No dealbreakers for this lurker, at least.  Carry on.

It’s not really something to compare against your dGPU but more for people that don’t have a dGPU but want a working EFI using there iGPU only.

Its never gonna work as well as using a AMD GPU. :no:
 

Or are you saying I still could do the framebuffers better?
