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

[brousseau6933]

I'll check this on my Z390 Test Bench shortly and will update this post...

Update: Confirmed the same behavior as you reported. USB-C devices will work (a) with hot-plug, (b) with cold boot, and other resets such as (a) entering/exiting BIOS Setup and (b) CTRL-ALT-DEL at Clover Boot Menu.

Thanks to confirm that I’m not alone. I hope it’s not the same with Thunderbolt devices... At least, there is a workaround.

There seems to be a (minor) problem with OpenCore 0.6.1. The release notes describe the new Booter Quirk DisableLinkeditJettison, but when we include that field in config.plist we get the warning (not error):

OCS: No schema for DisableLinkeditJettison at 2 Index, context <Quirks>!

This means that the OpenCore parser does not recognize the keyword "DisableLinkeditJettison" and skips over it. The phrase 2 Index refers to the index within the <Quirks> section. Index numbers begin with 0, and we can see from the screenshot below that "DisableLinkeditJettison" is Index 2.

This will probably be fixed in the next release, but for now we can simply remove that line or prefix it with a hash mark to disable it, as follows:

As for me, I've decided to leave it alone and wait for next release of OpenCore.

This is another reminder that OpenCore is still Beta and the version number begins with 0.

Looking at the sample plists, I believe this is meant to be in the other Quirks section where DisableIoMapper is. I have it there only and I don't get that error.

You're quite right! Moving it to the Kernel Quirks section fixes the problem. However, this means OpenCore Configurator 2.12.0.0 should not be used until the next version comes out.

Will fix the EFI 0.6.1 ZIP file when the next OpenCore Configurator build is released. It would be pointless to fix this issue now because use of OpenCore Configurator 2.12.0.0 will move it back to the wrong place.

What are your Geekbench scores like on this AMD build? Can't imagine they come close to something like an i9...

Just ran Geekbench 5 on Big Sur Public Beta 2. CPU scores:

Please compare the OpenCore config.plist files between OC 0.6.0 and 0.6.1 using OpenCore Configurator. There might be a kernel extension and/or kernel patch for Aquantia in 0.6.0 that needs to be migrated to 0.6.1.

Hi Casey,

Yes I did this immediately after changing over from 0.6.0 to 0.6.1 to ensure I had all the patches and kexts the same. All seemed to replicate and double checked. I don't think I ever had any specific settings or patches for it, it just always worked, from clover to OC 0.6.0.

EDIT: I have noticed that I have device properties for the Intel i211 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet listed in OC and in addition to this I have the SmallTree-Intel-211.... kext in my Kext Folder. As I understand it, my MB only has Intel i219v GbE and the Aquantia 10gb. See screenshots attached. Do you think my settings are wrong or might be impacting on why my Aquantia port is not working.

How is the latency in logic pro with this build? I'm thinking about upgrading and this is the closest I can find for what I want (music production build using logic pro and some plugins etc)

I'm not using Logic, but with Bitwig, I get 5.33ms at 256samples of buffer at 48k. I've also run sessions at 128 at 2.67ms and the CPU handling everything flawlessly. I'm guessing if you get a beefier CPU you'd get even better performances, but that's pretty ok for my practice.

Please try a cold start and disconnect the Apollo UAD when booting.

Disconnected, still same.
If I plug a monitor in the gpu at start up theb I get login in that, and the igpu one stuck at load.
Hot plug the stuck one out of the igpu into the gpu, black screen on both.

EDIT
I tried with igfx as boot but with igfx disable on bios. I see boot screen on both monitors connected to rx. I can login to osx, but then one of the monitor which is upside down it actually is, but the mouse is moving opposite (as if it would be straight) and I have to get back to standard and then rotate 180 again @CaseySJ
Would an update to mojave fix anything?

Latency issues are more frequent in Windows, Mac OS handles audio in a more efficient way, this build with Logic works as smooth as a real Mac
