OS X for playing games? The [email protected] GHz is the best bang for the buck. And it is lightyears before the XEONs in single core applications, which sadly still exists.

Hmm... Even my 1000$ 6900k is a lot faster than the maxed-out Mac Pro, so whats you point @genivn? For editing UHD Video you need a very fast System.

Yeah... And for now it is okay for me to block the Port in the DSDT. My first Target was a clean vanilla System without S/L/E Kexts. That is achieved. I think the boot argument exclude is the "nicer" way but for now it is perfect ok... ;)

I tried the uia_exclude but it didn't work as expected. Since i won't use this special port ever, thats perfect ok for me. I will try to create the SSDT again and report later... ;)

No. I can wake up the system by a mouse click or pressing a key on the keyboard - both works fine. I only recognized that the wake reason is still "kernel[0] <Notice>: Wake reason: ?" - in my opinion there should be EH01 or XHC, shouldn't it? You are welcome Hans. I removed the Device HS07...

Please Add: I7-6900K (Maybe the complete Series: I7-6800K, I7-6850K & I7-6950X) ASUS X99-A II PALIT 980TI Super Jetstream Thank You
