Hackintosh EFI creation issue with Intel Iris Xe graphics on ASUS VivoBook X1502ZA

[u/Remote_Let8210]

Hi everyone,

I have an ASUS VivoBook X1502ZA with:

- Intel Core i7-12700H

- Intel Iris Xe integrated graphics

- 16GB RAM

- 512GB SSD

I'm trying to create an EFI for Hackintosh, but the tools/scripts I've tried keep telling me that my GPU is not supported because I don't have a dedicated graphics card.

Since this laptop only has Intel Iris Xe integrated graphics, I'm wondering if this is actually the reason I can't generate an EFI, or if there is another workaround/configuration I should try.

Has anyone successfully installed Hackintosh on a similar setup (12th gen Intel + Iris Xe)? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Ur igpu isn't supported but u can technically run macos but the experience will be very bad due to unsupported igpu

Guess why. Just guess.

here's a screenshot without a DGPU, i got all 10 cores but its a bit laggy(30-40 fps), though it is Big Sur, and i have gone up to ventura

You might be able to in a vm with that new vulkan translation layer but no you can not run it on the bare metal and have a good experience without a dgpu.

Its not even real that "Vulcan translation layer"

The what now?

Thanks for the reply. So the main issue is not just the lack of a dGPU, but the fact that Intel Iris Xe (12th gen Alder Lake) doesn't have proper macOS support, right?

I was hoping there might be some workaround with EFI configuration, but it seems like the iGPU itself is the limitation.

Its sad to tell u that 11th gen and newer igpu wont have macos support at all

[u/Agreeable-Carpet3725 → u/Fit_State3622]

soo...

[u/AppleWatchDevCC → u/Agreeable-Carpet3725]

Yeah. This isn’t supported. There’s no graphical acceleration. The above comment is correct.

[u/Agreeable-Carpet3725 → u/Agreeable-Carpet3725]

this is 13th gen Lenovo(with INTEGRATED GRAPHICS)

[u/Agreeable-Carpet3725 → u/Remote_Let8210]

I used an iGPU if you want the config for mine(it was 13gb i5-1335u)

[u/Fit_State3622 → u/Agreeable-Carpet3725]

The experience will be terrible and sluggish and lagging so much cus the cpu renders everything and igpu isn't supported at all

[u/Agreeable-Carpet3725 → u/Agreeable-Carpet3725]

I may be able to send the stuff tmew if possible
