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

[MACAK]

The GC-Titan Ridge has arrived. We get to live an extra hour this weekend, so what better way to spend it!

What system are you planning to test this card in? I have one standing by also.

This is for the second Hackintosh listed in my signature: Asus X99 Deluxe II. I've tried both the Asus ThunderboltEX 2 and ThunderboltEX 3, but neither has been successful with hot plug. So based on @PicLock's experience, I'll replace those cards with the Gigabyte GC-Titan Ridge.

Perhaps completely unrelated to the build, but I just rebooted and now Safari refuses to load any web pages. It just keeps going in to a loop of "this webpage was reloaded because a problem occured." I've cleared history, disabled all (both) extensions, rebooted, enabled the Developer menu and cleared cache (and history). Same problem no matter what. Firefox works fine. Any thoughts? I searched in "General Help" and the web (duckduckgo) but found nothing. Very odd.

Edit to add: I've changed nothing with the OS or install at all. Just rebooted and it started. Oh, also tried CMOS soft-reset; no joy.

Some suggestions:

• In Terminal, type cd ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari followed by ls -l.
  • Delete any cache files or directories you see here
  • I have a directory called WebKitCache
• Is your system Date and Time set correctly?
• Have you installed any Java JDKs? If so, try reinstalling it.

Deleted everything in ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
System Date/Time are correct. I disabled "auto" and re-enabled it just to verify
Have not installed any JDK (only have whatever came with Mojave). I did re-install the JRE (12.0.2+10).

No luck. Quite odd.

I encountered a similar (not exact) problem with Safari a few months ago where Safari attempted to reload a number of tabs at each invocation. One or more of the tabs produced the error you mentioned, "a problem occurred with this webpage so it was reloaded".

I don't remember exactly how I fixed it, but I remember holding down some modifier keys while launching Safari, in order to prevent auto-open or something to that effect. I might have held down SHIFT or ALT-SHIFT...

If anyone else has any thoughts on this, please chime in.

Well, now...I had tried using Shift when clicking on Safari in the dock but that hadn't worked (many times over). I just tried ALT+SHIFT and clicking on the Safari icon in the dock. Success!

wanted to speed up FCPx and I had an old R9 270x dual-x lying around.

I updated AppleALC LULU and WEG to latest.
Opened up the old computer case and added the R9 to slot 2 on the designware.

didn't change anything in the BIOS or in Clover.

booted up no problem.

ran a quick BruceX benchmark:

BruceX with 8gb Vega = 13 secs

BruceX with Vega and R9 [4gb] = 7 secs

almost a 50% speed improvement!

I have one of these cards running in an Asus WS Pro Z390 and it work great!!
