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

    Haha, I get that it’s a little unorthodox. My simple thinking led me to this. Hot air rises, and the NH-D15 is open. So instead of fan’s pushing air in, and fan’s sucking air out, I figured that this simple sucking air out would be sufficient. And it does, even without blowing the fan’s at max...

    Hello all! Long time since I've been here. Been running my i9-9900K with RX580 flawless for a couple of years now (thanks again @CaseySJ !!). As a photo- and videographer, using mostly Lightroom and FCP, this is a perfect machine! For video I recently purchased 4K cams. Up till now I used HD...

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

    I've recently upgraded to MacOS 11.5.1. Which was a breeze with OpenCore Configurator and HackinDROM! Everything is up-to-date (OC 0.7.1). Only the memory of the RX580 was always maxed out, even when doing nothing. I checked HackinDROM and there was an update voor OpenCore to 0.7.2. I ran the...

    @CaseySJ Some 1000 new pages since my last visit! :clap: My hack was running smoothly, and with work piling up and there were to many posts to follow I stopped reading. But I had 10.15.4 waiting, so I started reading again. I read about the MSR unlock, but figured I'll try first without. Update...

    @CaseySJ up until now I had the exact same system as you have, but I can't seem to get the new OcQuirks Rev 15 to work. I used the files from "OcQuirks Rev 15 - Designare Z390.zip" as well as from the "Catalina Fresh Install.zip" but both give an error. I reverted back to OcQuirks-4.efi. Am I...

    @CaseySJ: I want to thank you again for this amazing guide! I built my Hackintosh in July this year with little to no experience only because of the confidence in your guide. It was mid season for me as a wedding photographer, so that says a lot in the confidence I had. But my iMac mid 2011 was...

    I ordered mine from AliExpress. Just search for "FV-T919" and look for the "fenvi Official Store". Delivery was fast!

    Apparently I didn't updated my Mac to the second supplemental 10.14.6 (18G103), so I did that today. I also saw iStat was updated recently. And what do you know, I've got a lot more sensors!

    Thanks for your reply Casey! Because it was also checked in your guide (Final steps in post installation) I also checked it. Followed it to the letter, still learning in hindsight what the options do. Both MX500 have different names: MacOS and MacOS Backup. I'll keep an eye on the nvram.plist if...

    It's the same as mine: Kingston HyperX Predator 64GB DDR4-3000 (HX430C15PB3K4/64). Perfect memory!

    A update to this question; still haven't done a CMOS reset (probably not valid, but I find this a bit scary), but found something else. I've unchecked 'Debug' in Clover Boot Section. Now a cold boot till desktop takes 52 seconds, much faster (it skips the testing section)! What does this tell...

    Thanks for your reply! I did suggestion 1 a while ago, but with no effect. I will try suggestion 2 in the near future as this takes some more preparation. I have to get some work done first. ;)

    Question about long boot time or slow boot: It seems to take longer every day for my Hack to start up. I noticed recently that the Carbon Copy Clone was much faster. So today I did a test: I made a clone of my SSD en restarted. Mojave backup: 50 sec. to desktop (from restart) Mojave: 2.05 sec...

    And that's the most important part, a smooth running hackintosh! I can't help you with the Apple Watch, I've not yet bought one. Regarding iStat, mine doesn't give fan speeds either. This is because of iStat and not your machine. I use multiple programs to give me an overview of my Hack's health...
