Am I the only person who feels it would be entirely appropriate for everyone here to buy @CaseySJ a beer? The time and effort he puts into this forum is astounding.

Thank you for the sentiment! To be fair I've been a bit rough on some users for various reasons that I hope are not considered spiteful. This forum is a more pleasant and informative place to be when:
  • We describe the issues logically and include some background information.
  • We do a reasonable amount of search. Many issues have been reported and resolved in the past.
  • We rely more on bullet lists (such as this bullet list) to structure the problem statement. Long paragraphs can be difficult to read and parse.
Some Internet forums perpetuate the worst of humanity. We make a conscious effort here not to let that happen.

P.S. Casey does not drink beer. :)
 
@CaseySJ, I have to disagree with you here since I think you might be too nice in some situation rather than rough:
* I may sound harsh here, I think people who ask questions here need to do some homework: reading the 1st post at least for example. Many questions were already answered in post#1.
* People should have the right expectation regarding Hackintosh: at the end of the day, we spend a fraction of Apple's price tag to achieve the same/similar performance, more flexibility/upgradeability, dual/triple boot capability etc. So if something are not 1000% perfect, especially something very minor, we might let it go.
* In all fairness, if we are talking about some real technical problem, say general TB3 firmware topic then I think it makes perfect sense to go deeper; but for things like TB3 minitors and EVO plus (to a lesser degree), we should let new players know that avoiding those behind the back no-look pass is a smarter choice.

Well then @CaseySJ name your poison. I'd be interested to know your favorite adult beverage. Mine happens to be Bumbu Rum on the rocks. :)
 
@Snoots @CaseySJ
Hi guys did you still need my EFI, I'm so sorry for the late reply, I haven't been on in a few days due to a death in the family.
 
Hi all, one query, has there been any fix / progress on the DRM playback issues with AppleTV+? Mine used to work in Catalina but no dice since Big Sur.

Guys,

Do you happen to know a good mid range graphic card to drive 49 inch monitor (something like Samsung CRG9) ? I’m using my hac for productivity for the most part with occasional boot into W10 for Flight Sim. I was looking at RX 5700 , however it does look like it is discontinued and actually pretty much most of the cards (if not all by now) that are listed in the buyer's guide do seem discontinued (checked amazon). Do you know if there is any modern replacement that will work out of the box with the hac? I'm currently on 10.15.7

Really appreciate your help!

I snatched an AMD RX 5600 XT a couple of weeks ago on a Wednesday morning at Newegg. Supplies of all GPUs are exhausted, but retailers are probably the best place to find a GPU. MicroCenter, CentralComputers (SF Bay Area), and similar places might be your best bet. But keep looking at Newegg, Amazon, and other online retailers as well.

Mine is the ASRock Challenger Pro RX 5600 XT. It's a triple fan card that works beautifully and silently. It's installed in my AMD Ryzentosh with B550 Vision D motherboard and running macOS 11.3 public beta. The RX 5000 cards are compatible with Catalina as well (since about 10.15.2).

You won't like my answer, but I have a mild weakness for what the Italians call 'acqua minerale con gas'. My alcohol consumption has always been extremely low, but has dwindled to virtually nothing.
