What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A collection of binary kernel patches that enable near-native AMD CPU support on macOS via the OpenCore bootloader. It supports AMD 15h, 16h, 17h, and 19h CPU families (FX, A-Series, Ryzen, Threadripper) using the ProvideCurrentCpuInfo quirk.

Use cases

  • run macOS on an AMD Ryzen CPU
  • boot macOS on a hackintosh with AMD processor
  • enable iMessage and FaceTime on AMD hackintosh
  • patch macOS kernel for AMD FX Bulldozer CPU
  • install macOS Sequoia on Ryzen 7000 Zen 4
  • fix core count patch for multi-core AMD CPU

When to choose

  • you are building a hackintosh with an AMD CPU and OpenCore
  • you want native macOS kernel instead of a custom XNU kernel on AMD
  • you need iMessage, Siri, FaceTime, and Continuity working on AMD macOS

When to avoid

  • you have an Intel CPU (use standard OpenCore guides instead)
  • you need 32-bit application support on macOS 10.14 or lower
  • you use a bootloader other than OpenCore 0.7.1+
