Could Hackintoshing cause damage?
I recently got a new Framework laptop, that I am using with an RX 6600 Thunderbolt eGPU. From what I have read so far, if I spoof the CPU (it's 13th Gen) I should be able to run macOS on this. I wouldn't intend to use it as a daily driver, rather as a fun little project.
Now I don't really care about having to do a ton of tinkering, or failing, but when hackintoshing my previous laptop (ThinkPad x280) I had read that in this case a misconfigured bios could cause you to brick the device.
Really this is the only thing deterring me from trying, so now my question is, is there a significant risk involved with trying to hackintosh this? Could I be causing permanent damage to my device if I try?

Is it normal for first usb boot to take a very long time?
I’m using dortinas open core guide and it does boot not to the Apple logo but the shell where it spits all of its processes and it hangs on some last part of the process, it’s not anything specific as far as I can see. I’m thinking this is because I’m using usb 2. If you need any info like my plist file or kext files.

Kernel panic when trying to install Ventura on Asus X556UAK

Skylake Laptop woes
I decided to try installing Ventura on my Clevo P650RE laptop, the relevant specs are as follows:
CPU: i7-6700HQ
iGPU: HD 530
dGPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 970M (not supported, therefore disabled in bios)
The main issue I'm having is with the display going to sleep and not waking up. This should ideally not be a big problem, because after installation i can just disable sleep altogether. But the issue is, my display goes to sleep even during installation.
I read that HD530 has had this issue for quite a while, and tried to fix it by adding the following boot args to my plist:
-v keepsyms=1 -wegnoegpu lilucpu=9 igfxonln=1 -igfxsklaskbl -disablegfxfirmware
I also spoofed my hardware using Kaby Lake platform-id 00001B59 and device-id 16590000, as recommended online.
My smbios is MacBookPro14,1
Is there anything I can do to fix this problem? I'd rather not sit and baby the installation for hours and move the mouse to prevent the display from sleeping.

Why dortania's wiki website is not updated since 0.9.1?
Since the latest post by Acidanthera released 4 versions of the OpenCore (Latest: 0.9.5, supported 0.9.1), but the wiki on dortania's website now very deprecated. Maybe someone has some information about this? (P.S. Sorry for my English, I'm not a native speaker.)

Ventura No sleep unless I disconnect from wifi since updating to 13.6 (Broadcom/Apple card)
Took me some time to figure out this was the cause lol.
With wifi disconnected (not disabled) sleep works fine, keyboard lights go off and power led changes colour indicating sleep.
With wifi connected only the screen goes to sleep, keyboard lights stay on and power led doesn't change colour.
I collected some logs of putting the system to sleep with
sleepnowand then get powerd sleep/wake messages. Clearing logs in between cycles. They are a bit different but I don't know why it's not sleeping when connected.

I recently posted about my build yesterday and assume that sidecar won't work on my build since it is a 12th gen with no igpu and from what I've checked, 10th gen is the latest that sidecar will work, but everything works on my build including: Imessage, Airdrop, Continuity, Handoff and this.. Sidecar! Really love it.
The reason why I built a hackintosh is to have an expandable memory in case I need to backup my mac and iphone, storage for video editing and doing mobile development also
I'm a silent reader here since 9 yrs ago but this is my first hackintosh success build. Thanks to this group

Installed Big Sur on an Intel NUC5i5MYBE
It appears that everything is functioning properly, except for maybe the accelerated graphics.
How can I verify if it's functioning correctly? The user interface does seem slightly sluggish, but I'm uncertain whether it's due to the older i5 CPU or another issue.

Boot picker is laggy.
When booting to open core boot picker, everything works expect it’s very laggy like the initial animation when you load into the boot picker and the cursor being laggy.
You can see my build on this post.
