Hey Guys, Has anyone successfully done Big Sur with Open Core on and Asus Prime Z370-P motherboard. I was gifted this board with an i3 8100 Cpu inside, I want to change the cpu to an i7 9900 and want to run BS on it. If you have got the same set up can you please share your efi or will the pre-made EFI I have for the Kaby lake system work on this?
