[SUCCESS] Gigabyte Designare Z390 (Thunderbolt 3) + i7-9700K + AMD RX 580

My system was freezing with that driver after I logged into the services.

Interesting, so far I didn't face any crash or system freezing.

I'm using EmuVariableUEFI-64 with installed RC scripts and don't have an issue so far. Therefore I keep EmuVariableUEFI-64 installed. I haven't recognised that Clover doesn't remember the last booted volume correctly, simply because my macOS Volume gets started automatically. I also have Windows 10 installed on a dedicated SSD.

With RC scripts installed, Clover should remember the last booted volume. In the build guide we're installing EmuVariable without RC scripts; this is done just for the purpose of activating Messages, FaceTime, etc. Once activated, the guide recommends deleting EmuVariable and reinstalling it whenever it's needed again.

EmuVariableEUFI-64 should work properly in combination with these two:

• OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi
• slide=0 (in Boot arguments)

Updated Clover, signed in again voilá here facetime and messages are working. (no freeze)
I also updated kext with kextupdater

@CaseySJ I will update Clover tonight. Which begs the question, to which version and are there any steps I need to do after that? Looks like it Installs AptioMemoryFix.efi, PartitionDxe-64.efi and ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi in /EFI/CLOVER/Drivers64UEFI/ (version r4586)

Thanks!

I would recommend the latest released version of Clover. But make a full copy of the current EFI folder. I simply select the EFI folder name in Finder, then right-click and choose "Compress". This zips it up and I move it to my Documents folder.

After the update:

• AptioMemoryFix should be deleted
• Double check that OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000 is still present
• PartitionDxe-64 is okay
• ApfsDriverLoader-64 is the one I'm using so it's fine; just use one APFS driver

If using the Clover standalone installer, ensure that the option to install Clover to EFI partition is selected from the "Customize" section.

Just to confirm, which of the following are you currently using?

1. OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000
2. slide=0
3. EmuVariableUefi64

all of them

*edit don't want to double post, I fixed my Vega64 fans with VegaTab and Pastrychefs guide, I'll leave the modded kext for other users here which are using Vega64 in this particular system which goes into Efi/Clover/Kext/Others then rebuild the cache (crucial).

it can be further tuned with the app.

Can someone test Heaven Benchmark? my computer freezes in the middle and after the third or fourth freeze reboots.

I fixed it the hard way, the kext was giving me issues:

we need to create a device into clover here, open the EFI config_list:

with those parameters:

Devices: PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)

Save and reboot, this will finally fix both Vega64 and 56 fans and heavy load crash,
you can check the GPUs before and after with this in terminal:

while sleep 1; do clear;ioreg -l |grep \"PerformanceStatistics\" | cut -d '{' -f 2 | tr '|' ',' | tr -d '}' | tr ',' '\n'|grep 'Temp\|Fan\|Clock'; done

I did this and still no MB Audio showing up. Clover is updated. Deleted AptioMemoryFix I used Kext Beast to install AppleALC and verified it was 1.3.4 It is still in kext "others" folder in the EFI folder. Then I used kext utility to cleanup and restore permissions. It seemed to finish very quickly... Also it look like it does this in System/Library/extensions vs Library/extensions Is there a better way to rebuild kext caches?

On an amazingly positive note: I got my OWC Thunderbolt 4X drive bay and put my (2) 4Tb Raid drives in it from my previous build. They came up and at same speed as they did when they were on SATA controllers in my old Hack. I have two 8Tb showing up tomorrow. The Thunderbolt 3 on the MB is exactly why I did this build!

Is there a better way to rebuild kext caches?

Try

sudo touch /Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /
or
sudo touch System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /
