The boot log you posted contains 3 table load failures (edited below for brevity):

Homework assignment?

Hmmm!! Thanks for looking! This is the log before the proper ADBG->XDBG patch was applied in GSWApp so it should be down to only two now.

@CaseySJ: attached is the new bootlog. The GSWApp error is gone but there are others.

Edit: Got it down to one ACPI Error (bootlog5.txt): An error loading \_SB_.PC00.XHCI.RHUB.HS01 in SSDT-xh_rksu4.

Not sure why device RHUB is failing to load. I have a USBPorts.kext that defines my USB ports, and they seem to load, so not sure what the problem is.

Although it's sometimes okay to ignore certain table loading errors, it's better to fix the errors and see if that makes any difference. To troubleshoot this remaining issue, simply post SSDT-xh_rksu4.aml.

Hey @Elias64Fr! Like I told you, the patched SSDT-SocGpePatched.aml doesn't help me. Anything else to try?

@CaseySJ, I tried to work with the SSDTs @Elias64Fr provided, but it is above my knowledge. Can you take a look or give me a direction. I have no problem with TB tree. I just don't know to implement hot-plug.

I just rechecked your SSDT (TbtOnPch) and it contains the two key elements for hot plug:

• UPSB --> PCI-Thunderbolt
• DSB0 --> PCIHotplugCapable

The problem now is that Z690 boards do not appear to use line level interrupts to signal a hot plug event, which is why we're unable to find a GPE _Lxx event that works.

Both GC-Titan Ridge and GC-Maple Ridge are able to support hot plug on Z690, but the latter (GC-Maple Ridge) is very particular about the type of Thunderbolt device that is connected.

The best option by far for Z690 at this time is Gigabyte GC-Titan Ridge. Both flashed and unflashed work well.

I recommend making RAID with 3 SSD M.2 4 gen.

Never tried this before . If I already have a main macOS disk and have another spare identical disk can you turn it into a raid array or I need to format both and start over

Update deux,

I swapped (for experimental purposes) the RX 6800 with a Sapphire RX 6600 XT Pulse.

After boot to the OC picker, the Apple progress bar stuck at 45%.

I remember discussions about incompatibility of the RX6700.
Is the RX 6600 also a no go for Monterey?

 

[trs96]

Is the RX 6600 also a no go for Monterey?

It has support in Monterey. Should work.

 

[ckrueger99]

It has support in Monterey. Should work.

RX 6600/6600XT Has to be 12.1 (beta) or later, IIRC. 6700/6700XT are still no go.
