[Success] ASRock Z390 Phantom Gaming-ITX + TB3 + iGPU + Mojave + SFF Build

[Zehin]

Hello,
I have a question for you guys here! I am new to the ASRock z390 and OC. I use to have a Gigabyte Z390 I aorus, the motherboard burned out and got the Asrock as replacement. I finally got this board working thanks to this thread and I can say is pretty stable in my opinion. I am using OC because the board was sold to me upgraded to version 4.30. Now, I found that I am having issue when it comes to dual monitor/sidecard and photoshop. please view the image sample below:

The only way that I can get photoshop to work with dual monitor is if I uncheck the graphic processor option under the performance tab. The only problem is that if I leave this option unchecked I can use certain tools that helps me facilitate my workflow. On top I have been experiencing random Kernel Panic causing the computer to restart by it self... Anyways my question for any of you in this thread...have anyone experiencing anything like this and how to fix?

Even I'm back to the native firmware. For me though, TB just dies after sleep & wake (TB link status changes to 0xe00002eb from 0x07/0x01). This is with all the combinations of iGPU vs iGPU & DGPU. I switched back so I could use my 5700 XT w/o kernel panics. I'll have to give up sleep but even if I put the device to sleep, I can restart gracefully.

I'll give the SSDT only approach a try again in a few weeks. I'll post my experience over in the Designare thread. Maybe @CaseySJ and others will have some insights.

I suppose that's a good thing to do. BTW on the SSDT method are you injecting any DROM properties ? Im trying to inject both the DROM and UUID to see if that stabilises the system after sleep. Will post an update soon.

@mango1122 just another perspective. I just tested my setup over the course of the last 5 days. I let let my computer sleep multiple times and overnight, including a 48 hour sleep from which I woke the computer this morning. All devices and the TB3 dock are working perfectly and all information is populated in system report.

I don’t even know what DROM is

Thats pretty awesome - did you do anything special ? I remember you reporting that the devices disappear from the System report after a while ?

Hi just wonder if you are using Clover or OpenCore. I am on OpenCore 9.5.8 and have no problems with sleep now. No fans and deep sleep even for 2 days. But USB-C drives connected to Thunderbolt lose connection on sleep but mount again when I wake. Thunderbolt drives are disconnected and I have to restart to mount them. And if I unmount a USB-C drive in Thunderbolt it will not mount until restart.

@asleb I am using Clover.

@mango1122 The only hiccup I ever have is when I boot from cold, sometimes the TB3 port (and therefore dock) isn't recognized. Its not recognized in BIOS, Windows nor OS X. Simply discharging the motherboard (pressing power button while computer has no power) fixes it immediately. I don't blame this on SSDT or anything Hackintosh related, this is an ASRock/hardware issue, I believe.

Candurin, would you be so nice and post your EFI Folder so I can compare yours to mine? Thank You.
