Hello, need help from REALLY advanced hackintoshers!
Install the latest OC 0.9.2 beta https://github.com/dortania/build-repo/releases/download/OpenCorePkg-676f834/OpenCore-0.9.2-RELEASE.zip

Ryzentosh ~ Ventura 13.3 ~ Ryzen 5 5600x ~ RX 5600XT ~ B550 ~ OC 0.9.1 ~
Audio output is great btw but the lack of mic input on Ryzentoshe's made me buy a USB WebCam with builtin microphone which is working without any effort. FeatureUnlock kext (1.1.4 latest commit) https://github.com/dortania/build-repo/releases/download/FeatureUnlock-ec664b2/FeatureUnlock-1.1.4-RELEASE.zip made Continuity Camera work flawless.

[SUCCESS] macOS Monterey on my PC
I used IntelBluetoothFirmware.kext (https://github.com/OpenIntelWireless/IntelBluetoothFirmware/releases/tag/v2.0.1, ONLY IntelBluetoothFirmware.kext AND NOT IntelBluetoothInjector.kext BECAUSE IT WILL BREAK BLUETOOTH) and BlueToolFix.kext (https://github.com/dortania/build-repo/releases/tag/BrcmPatchRAM-8b5c9d7)

Topaz Gigapixel
Has anyone had a problem running Topaz Gigapixel on AMD chips? Mine won't load, wondered if there was a fix, much like Amdfriend does for Adobe apps. Thanks

What are the apps that will not run or runs unstably with Ryzentosh?

Ryzentosh ~ Ventura 13.3 ~ Ryzen 5 5600x ~ RX 5600XT ~ B550 ~ OC 0.9.1 ~
First thing i needed to patch (as a photographer) was the ability to use Adobe Software on Ryzentosh. That was done using AMDFriend script to patch the libraries so the apps think its an Intel processor as there is no real Mac out there using an AMD cpu. https://github.com/NyaomiDEV/AMDFriend
- Hello I have issues whit Photoshop
- What's wrong with AMD and Adobe??

AMD Photoshop crashing
You just need AMDFriend :) https://github.com/NyaomiDEV/AMDFriend to patch your app I would do in this way:
-
What things don't work on Ryzen currently?
Issues with Adobe have been solved thanks to the great AMDFriend script. Even the notoriously crashy neural filters work flawlessly now. I understand that some audio plugins like Waves are a mixed bag. If audio production is your planned use, I would stick to an Intel based system.
What are some alternatives?
