Ok @izo1 I’ve done it! But I think it’s not a optimal solution!
@kabusikan i got no SSDT anymore ‘cause I deleted it a few days ago
Should I buy an air cooled Vega 64? Reference (blower fans) or custom (Gigabyte for 2 big fans and 3 x DP)?Yep, there really isn’t a better way.
I don’t think SSDT will help you anyway.
That’s why I’m looking at cooling it in a closed loop with the fans controlled by mobo.
Ok. Makes things easier for this test.@kabusikan i got no SSDT anymore ‘cause I deleted it a few days ago

Please try this attached kext with the fans connected to your card, if you like.
I thought that you might mention something about the 4 ports hub USB 2.0/USB 3.0. I tested every possible scenarios and combinations with the HUB ( Except x4 USB 3.0, as I did not have enough USB 3.0 Drive to connect ). The results are identical. Only HS05/SS05 would post no matter what. Attached is a few screenshots with various configurations. ( Tested upon your guide recommendation, without Kext on Mojave 10.14.0 ). HS09/11 are connected respectively to Airport/Bluetooth Broadband Card & wireless keyboard.Hi Elly,
many thanks for all further help and contributions. Although I am afraid that there are still a few inconsistencies within your kext and port-layout.pdf.
For the missing completion of the kexts, please use the 2 files attached below, which also contain a modified port-layout drawing that also might need still some completion form your side.
Inconsistencies:
All 4 upper USB back panel connectors seems to be USB3.0! I assume, that the first one is assigned to HS05/SSP5 (3) and the other three share HS06/SSP6 on a common bridge (255), as now implemented in the revised kexts. By not implementing HS06, like in your kext above, you would loose backwards compatibly to USB2.0 for all three port. Please verify and confirm. Else it could also be that the other three USB3.0 ports are assigned to HS06/SSP6, HS07/SSP7 and HS08/SSP8, which actually however might not be the case. Please verify and confirm.
Therefore, the verified fully implemented kext for the X299 GA Gaming 7 now implements at least 16 ports, while in the truncated 15-port kext, I removed HS09 to stay within Apples 15-port limit. Thus internal USB2.0 header F_USB_2 will now only work for connecting one single device when using the truncated 15-port kext.
Another remaining question is whether HS07, HS08 and HS13,HS14 are assigned to internal devices like AURA or are really not used by this motherboard and therefor can be dropped from the kext. Please verify.
All the best and many thanks for your patience,
KGP

Could you please upload your Vega SSDT?
I'd like to try something with it in addition to a kext and see if it changes anything on your card.
I used the excel-sheet method and put in some values i think will be all right for testing if anything will change with your setup. No overclocks but only lower fan speeds.What have you done here?
Yes i used it and it works.Did you try the SSDTVEGA56 from kgp repo : it works fine : the PP_PhmSoftPowerPlayTable is good and no fan issue with adding a <key>PP_PhmSoftPowerPlayTable</key> in the AMD10000Controller.kext info.plist
