  • GPU: AMD RX6600 is fully supported by Apple. Check this for further information on the support for the RX6600 on macOS. You should add this in boot-args:

  • FakeSMC3_with_plugins

    Driver for emulation SMC device with hardware sensors support

  • Hardware sensors: One thing to take into consideration are the hardware sensors, if you like to monitor stuff using apps like iStatica or iStat Menus. VirtualSMC seems to lack support for the sensors on this system. After looking for a solution I got to a fork of FakeSMC that has the perfect support for this hardware: FakeSMC3 from CloverHackyColor. I find it very stable and provides a lot more sensors to monitor temperatures.But I cannot guarantee its stability and performance since a lot of people on the community say VirtualSMC is superior. This just works for me, guys. Feel free to try what is best for you.

  • InfluxDB

  • BrcmPatchRAM

  • Bluetooth: Here it becomes a bit tricky. It seems that Apple dropped support for some bluetooth devices with Monterey. My USB dongle "CSR 4.0 Bluetooth USB card (Qualcomm/Cambridge Silicon Radio CSR8510)" is a cheapo one, but worked out of the box on Catalina. To get it working on Monterey I had to use BrcmPatchRAM from the acidenthera team.

  • BlueToolFixup.kext: Required for macOS 12 or newer, as in macOS 12 Apple has changed parts of the Bluetooth stack from kernel-space to user-space as detailed in here and here. Requires Lilu 1.5.4+.

  • EFI-OC-AtermiterX79-E5-2620v2-RX6600

    EFI folder for Installing macOS Monterey (and probably Ventura)

  • Sure: https://github.com/VivaPeron/EFI-OC-AtermiterX79-E5-2620v2-RX6600

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
