Samsung Monitor not working - looking for recommendations!
In the mean time however, I can recommend a free application that I found worked wonders for my display. While I tried BetterDisplay, and love everything the developer does, I found when changing resolution the process was a bit clunky. Instead I recommend RDM. It is as easy as installing the application, opening it, clicking the little icon in the menu bar, and selecting a resolution with a little lightning bolt next to it (HiDPi resolution) which should give you a crisp, well scaled, external monitor. Then every time you restart your max it should automatically open the application and apply these settings!

How to screen not move when mouse pointer reaches edge of the screen while zoomed in?
The software they discuss, RDM (https://github.com/avibrazil/RDM), allows you to force a specific resolution, and will likely send you down the right path. To use this, You will probably have to change the resolution before you launch your game, and then change it back afterwards, otherwise you’ll find yourself losing items behind the notch in the menu bar.

Home Truths about macOS
Yeah, using non-Apple monitors with a mac is a pain. Try "Retina Display Manager" - https://github.com/avibrazil/RDM - as it allows you to switch to the sharper HiDPI resolutions supported on your monitor.

Ryzentosh - Zephyrus-G14 GA401IV
Mainly this https://github.com/PIut02/ROG-Zephyrus-G14-GA401-Hackintosh. It has all the necessary reference repos. I needed some extra features, followed below repos. To make somethings works - https://github.com/ChefKissInc/NootedRed https://github.com/jwise/HoRNDIS https://github.com/b00t0x/ROG-Zephyrus-G14-GA402-Hackintosh

Successful Ryzentosh laptop (HP 245 G8)
What works: - CPU power management using this kext. Battery life is not great, but I haven't checked what can be done to improve it yet. - USB tethering from an Android phone as a workaround for having Wi-Fi since iOS only allows to do USB tethering with mobile data. If you need it as well, check this kext out. - Hardware acceleration thanks to NootedRed. - iServices. - Built-in speakers. - All USB ports. - HDMI video. - Ethernet. - Keyboard. - Trackpad.

use a phone for wired ethernet
You're wrong about Mac, Apple's crapOS needs a custom kext for it: https://github.com/jwise/HoRNDIS
