Tested with macOS 11.2.1 - later versions have not been tested. This EFI isn't guaranteed to work flawlessly with your hardware... but it can be used as a starting point to aid getting your hackintosh up and running. Feel free to join my Telegram channel.

You will need to flush a new SMBIOS if you want to use iCloud services. The included SMBIOS has been blacklisted and may result in a suspended iCloud account if you choose to use it.

If you're able to, please consider donating to AMD OSX. Without the team, this fun project wouldn't be possible!
