SMCAMDProcessor VS OSX-PROXMOX

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.

Sleep works, there's an AMD power management kext https://github.com/trulyspinach/SMCAMDProcessor

If you install https://github.com/trulyspinach/SMCAMDProcessor you have the same telemetry as you would with Intel.

AMD ryzen power manager, SMC AMD processor

This isn't true, trulyspinach has a power management kext for AMD that brings performance to pretty much being identical to Windows with the Core Performance Boost feature. Or you can just force the CPU into the P0 state. https://github.com/trulyspinach/SMCAMDProcessor/releases

I've tried playing around with the SMCAMDProcessor, but not had any luck. This is same with Cinebench

I run macOS/OSX Sonoma in Proxmox. It does pcie/gpu passthrough (AMD rx580 8gb). The proxmox host is running a AMD Ryzen 7 5700G cpu and has 64gb memory. The mac vm disks are on a zfs fs on a wd black nvme ssd.

It's the fastest mac I've ever owned and it's virtual, executed on a machine running a chip that apple never supported, and you'd never be able to tell it was a vm unless you were told so. kvm and vfio are amazing pieces of software.

A good place to start: https://github.com/luchina-gabriel/OSX-PROXMOX

Resources: https://www.youtube.com/@HarveysVE That channel explains and demonstrate a lot of thing about Proxmox and Hackintosh. The most I do not explored yet https://github.com/luchina-gabriel/OSX-PROXMOX That is project of person from my country who run a Youtube Channel talking only about Hackintosh, Ryzentosh and Virtualized. The only problem at least on Youtube is that he don't speak english! But don't worry I can help you with his project if you need. That is the project who automate the process of Hackintosh on Proxmox that I told you earlier. good stuff! https://www.proxmox.com/en/downloads/category/iso-images-pve Proxmox ISO Download

Proxmox is very easy with OSX-PROXMOX. If you are more advanced and understand linux, just go with any distro you are comfortable with but Arch/Fedora worked the best for me in the past and use OSX-KVM. Then there is Unraid for which there exists pretty simple Hackinabox scripts to get it working and very simply so but Unraid is a paid OS.
