OSX-KVM on Hades Canyon with dGPU passthrough AMD Radeon RX Vega M GH dGPU
As kexts we need the usual suspects, but also Polaris22Fixup and maybe OldRadeonX4000HWLibs (it's inside the package). Also, I just used OC 0.7.6.
After many struggles I finally figured out how to achieve a OSX-KVM with a passed through AMD Radeon Vega RX Vega M GH discrete GPU. It apparently works with full graphics acceleration. What doesn't work yet is DRM, but should be fixable. Big thanks to osy's HacMini project, which basically solves the Hades Canyon as Hackintosh and from where I looked at and copied many things.

Hades Canyon AMD Radeon RX Vega M GH GPU passthrough OSX-KVM
Next I had to define an own SSDT file for the dGPU, because changing the device-id in DeviceProperties in the config.plist wouldn't work. For this you define the device (e.g. PEGP) at the correct location (_SB.PCI0.S08) and fill in what osy did. Then compile with the iasl tool, can be done outside the VM.

[HELP] Black Screen or garbled after Verbose Open Core Vega M GH
The GPU is a Vega M GH (see my previous post), for which I created a custom DSDT that was inspired from the working hackintosh project at https://github.com/osy/HaC-Mini. It appears with the correct vendor and device IDs just like in the HaC-Mini project. The exercise would be to understand how to get the Vega M GH running based on how HaC-Mini, but the information is sadly unclear (e.g., where is this kext coming from?).

Can't find ACPI path for PNP PCI device
What should I do? I wanted to insert the device into this script so that I hope I would be able to use it as a graphics card.

KVM Hackintosh with Radeon RX Vega M passthrough
for reasons I would like to make a KVM-based Hackintosh such as https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM and passthrough the Radeon RX Vega M GPU via vfio, which is in my Hades Canyon NUC8i7HVK. There exists a working hackintosh project for the whole PC itself at https://github.com/osy/HaC-Mini, which I used to gather more information, but I couldn't get it together into a workable state such that I run a macOS VM in KVM.
- Which is a better option for Hackintoshing? Which would you choose?

Micro PC suggestions
Not the question you were asking, but the NUC8i7HVK is similar form factor, with much better graphics. The HaC-Mini set-up by Osy works great (https://github.com/osy/HaC-Mini).

KVM Hackintosh with Radeon RX Vega M passthrough
I tried to add the dGPU to the OSX-KVM and macOS does recognize the device even as graphics adapter, but it never uses it as display device and loads no kext. I tried to remove the qemu VGA adapter (which would make the Linux VM use the dGPU when passed through) and boot into OpenCore, but I never got any display output. I tried to load the https://github.com/osy/Polaris22Fixup kext into OpenCore (just putting it in the kexts folder, I'm not sure if that is enough though).
What are some alternatives?
When comparing HaC-Mini and Polaris22Fixup you can also consider the following projects:
OSX-KVM - Run macOS on QEMU/KVM. With OpenCore + Monterey + Ventura + Sonoma support now! Only commercial (paid) support is available now to avoid spammy issues. No Mac system is required.
KVM-Opencore - OpenCore disk image for running macOS VMs on Proxmox/QEMU
