Follow the Dortania OpenCore Install Guide, using the desktop guide as a reference point, but with these modifications:
The catch is that the integrated GPU that comes bundled with these otherwise fantastic CPUs is completely unusable. You are essentially paying for an iGPU that must be disabled.
Note: This mode is only useful for initial installations, troubleshooting, or running a headless server environment. It is completely unusable for daily desktop tasks. uhd 770 hackintosh
If you cannot add a dedicated GPU, you can technically get the system to boot, but it will only provide a basic display (VESA mode). This is unsuitable for daily use or creative work.
If you are setting up an OpenCore EFI for a system featuring a CPU with UHD 770 alongside a supported AMD dGPU, follow this architectural strategy: Step 1: OpenCore DeviceProperties Configuration Follow the Dortania OpenCore Install Guide, using the
It is highly recommended to lower SIP to allow the OCLP patches to work. In config.plist , go to NVRAM -> Add -> 7C436110-AB2A-4BBB-A880-FE41995C9F82 :

Realistically, the UHD 770 will never work in macOS. Current and future Hackintosh builders should accept this limitation and plan their builds accordingly.
If you have installed a compatible AMD dGPU alongside your Intel CPU, you must tell OpenCore to ignore the UHD 770 iGPU so it does not cause boot loops or kernel panics. Step 1: Bios Settings
