Gigabyte Z490 Vision D (Thunderbolt 3) + i5-10400 + AMD RX 580

Changing audio layout ID can have some effect on this. We’re using Layout 11, but try both 16 and 7. It’s set in Boot Arguments using the “alcid” parameter. Be sure to Reset NVRAM from the OpenCore Picker Menu after making the change.
Excellent - I will do! Is there a reference or documentation on the different audio layouts. I do a bit with audio as well, and am simply curious on this.
 
Hi!
I'm planning to build a PC for gaming on Windows and development on macOS with the Vision D but I know I won't be satisfied with a GPU such as RX 580 or 5700XT therefore I'm probably gonna wait for Big Navi but the question is - Are the new cards going to be supported?
Btw I don't know if it's the right place to ask this, if it's not just tell me and I'll move it.

That's a very relevant question. Whether Apple supports Big Navi is open to debate, but my feeling is that they will in fact support it for the Mac Pro. Even a future Apple Silicon Mac Pro is expected to have PCIe slots, so what GPUs are we going to put in those slots?? ;)

While there doesn't seem to be specific information about what audio ports or audio capabilities are supported by each Layout ID, we do at least have a table of applicable Layout IDs. We just try each one until we find one that works best for us. In our case, the codec is Realtec ALC-1220.
 
I returned the T919 from FenviUS. I'll try the card you linked now. I'll keep you guys posted.

btw: upgrade to OpenCore 6.0 went fine

@CaseySJ I got the YOUBO card today and it seems that the sleep problem is solved. :)

So neither the MQUPIN Fenvi T919 nor the Fenvi T919 directly from FenviUS worked for me. I guess it must be something about my hardware configuration OR Fenvi may have problems with the firmware on some cards... I don't know.

Very interesting. I'll add the YOUBO as a recommended alternative.
 
I have the Vision G with a Radeon VII. Everything seems to be working very smoothly. The only issue, other than sleep, is that if I let the monitors go to sleep I no longer have access to the login field. The mouse moves, I just can't select anything. Anyone else having anything similar? This is intermittent btw.

Hey man disable Serial port in BIOS I had the same problem...on Vision G myself.
 
Hello @hughythomas

Fortunately the upgrade from OpenCore 0.5.9 to 0.6.0 should be quite straightforward for the Vision G.
  • First make a copy of your existing EFI folder (select the folder in Finder and press CMD-D to Duplicate). Set that copy aside in case you need to revert back.
Now start with the EFI folder you already have (no need to modify my EFI 0.6.0 folder) and then copy the following files from my folder into your folder:
  • Copy new BOOT/BOOTX64.efi
  • Copy new OC/OpenCore.efi
  • Copy new OC/BootStrap/bootStrap.efi
  • No need to change anything in ACPI folder.
  • Replace all files in your Tools folder from those in my Tools folder
  • Replace kexts that already exist in your Kexts folder with those from my folder. Do not copy any new kexts that don't already exist in your Kexts folder.
  • Replace drivers that already exist in your Drivers folder with those from my EFI 0.6.0 folder. Again, do not copy any new drivers that don't already exist in your Drivers folder.
  • Now the only tricky part:
    • Download latest OpenCore Configurator 2.9.0.0 or newer and set its Preferences to 0.6.0 Release Version as shown in the 0.6.0 Mini-Guide.
    • Now open your original config.plist and save it back. This has the effect of adding/modifying the XML syntax to be compliant with OpenCore 0.6.0.
Double-check everything then perform a test boot.

CaseySJ, Thank you for your detailed response I successfully updated using your instructions and am working on my professional music work today using OpenCore 0.6.0, and its beautiful!

Thanks again mate!
 
Greetings! Thank you to CaseySJ and everyone contributing to this build so far - I ordered the parts for my build when this post was only 3 pages long, so much progress has been made!

I've been waiting patiently for the i9-10900k to arrive and I can't wait any longer (I've got work to do!), I've been offered an i9-10850k and I was wondering if anyone had tested one in this build yet or knows if it'll be compatible?
