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

[Rainmaker07]

Hello @Rainmaker07

The easiest option would be to transfer your serial numbers into config-AMD-GPU.plist, backup the existing config.plist, then rename config-AMD-GPU.plist to config.plist.

But in that case I would lose all the changes I made to my config.plist file. Problem is I don't really remember everything I changed. But just looking at the Kernel tab there are a bunch of changed kext paths. Is changing them in the AMD file easier than changing the values in my original file to make it work with an AMD GPU?
Especially because I don't know which things I changed and what is changed to make the GPU work.

I see -- in that case just make these changes to your existing config.plist:

And add agdpmod=pikera to boot arguments.

Thank you so much. Worked perfectly!!

hi everyone,

I'm still troubleshooting a few things on my build. I have determined that the Samsung 970 EVO Plus is causing NVMe panics. I switched to the SN750 (one for Windows, one for macOS) without NVMeffxup, and I haven't had any panics since.

I'm trying to determine what to enter for the values below (Z490
Vision G), Dortania usually suggest 64MB for DVMT, but I've read that you should set it for 128MB if using a 2K/4K display.

DVMT Pre-allocated: 128MB
DVMT Total GFX Mem: MAX
aperture Size: 256MB

Any advice? Thanks again.

@CaseySJ Hi there. I have noticed that in the past 1-2 months, after waking up, I have not Internet connection at all. Sometime, if I wait a few minutes, it might come back, but sometime it won't. Renewing the DHCP lease fails as well as turning on and off WiFi. (I have WiFi and Ethernet with Ethernet being listed as the priority network.) Only option is to restart. It will also happens (although rarely but still) while using the system. It will suddenly lose the network connection for a few minutes and will eventually come back. Note that this never happened in all previous versions of MacOS. It started in Ventura. Any suggestion where I could look to find the issue (log file for instance)? Thanks

I would first try these steps:

• Uncheck USBWakeFixup and SSDT-USBW. Reboot and check wake from sleep behavior of Ethernet and WiFi
• If problem still occurs, try cold boot and Reset NVRAM
• If problem still occurs then create fresh installation of Ventura on spare SSD or on a new APFS Volume added to an existing SSD. Check if problem occurs
• If problem still occurs, create fresh installation of Monterey and check if problem occurs

I'll try the first one.
Second option already tried and problem still happened. The issue is not each time the system wakes up but from time to time. But as I said it never happened under Monterey on before.

MSI Radeon RX 580 Armor OC with 8GB GDDR5 Memory

Hi, I never noticed before but my RX580 power consumption never goes below 90/95W in Idle, even at 300Mhz clock speed, with an average temp of 48/50c. I searched a lot about the topic and found out it's a common "issue". I didn't find any solution though! What do you think about this? Should we just live with those values?

Many thanks again for the help

This card may have a physical toggle switch that flips between Silent and OC modes. Try flipping it to Silent.

It's a Sapphire Nitro+, no switch. But the problem is not the fans, but the high (compared to windows) Idle power consumption...maybe that's just normal on a Hackintosh...but 100W for a graphic card at 300Mhz, doing nothing...sounds very high indeed
