Asus X299 - Support

[Warbands]

@izo1 What version of Mojave are you running? I am assuming you followed KGP's Mojave setup guide. I am late to the game, should I grab 10.14.4 as his guide mentions, or a later Mojave. I am using the latest Clover Configurator.

@Warbands, you're probably okay using the last one, for 10.14.5 beta, on 10.14.6. It worked out fine for me on X99 (his other guide with similar files), maybe others here know more specific info tho.

I'm not getting 60hz with a 4k MST display (DisplayPort 1.2), and someone else with a similar monitor said it works on Catalina. I'm not going to Catalina for a while because of 32 bit apps. We seem to have ruled out VBIOS differences. This probably only matters if you have an older monitor.

Kylec, ok cool, that was what I was currently doing ( KGP's Git Repo bundle for 10.14.5 beta and using dosdude's download for Mojave ).

 

[kylec]

I've never seen that tool, before. You should follow the whole KGP guide. Using an "all in one" tool of that type may have side effects that prevent proper operation of the files you got from the guide thread.

 

[Warbands]

Ok, though KGP's guide uses curl to grab all the subsections and those are 10.14.4, I don't see updated curl id's for 10.14.6 unless I am blind.

 

[kylec]

Oh, that's true. I just used createosinstall method there, instead.

 

[Warbands]

Kylec, are you speaking of the 2 shell scripts?

createInstaller-10.14.4-23042019.sh and createInstaller-10.14.4-SB-23042019.sh.zip

If so those are going to generate a 10.14.4 installer instead of a 10.14.6 installer. Are there updated scripts hidden somewhere in the 285 pages

 

[kylec]

Sorry, I meant createinstallmedia. There's not really an official guide to it, here, I don't think. You can refer to the section titled "createinstallmedia method" here in the laptop Clover guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

As long as the partition format of the USB is the correct one for what your motherboard's EFI expects, you can install Clover and run createinstallmedia, in either order.

 

[Warbands]

Ok, giving that a shot, thanks Kylec.

New custom loop, got rid of the previous.

2x Hardware Labs 360 GTS Slim rads
EKWB D5 Res/Pump RGB 140 Combo

9980XE Hits 74-76c on full load with an all-18-core OC @ 4.5Ghz. Will most likely push it to 4.6 since these rads are doing such a great job.

@izo1 How are you controlling your fans and pump speed? I figure for the fans as long as they can be read, the macfancontrol, but are you just relying on your motherboard to control the pumps?
