Hi everyone, I have a Sapphire Nitro + 5700 XT which is mostly working well, but I have a potentially big and worrying problem with it. This card has a zero RPM fan feature where the fans are completely off below a certain temperature, it seems to be working well most of the time : as soon as I...

I'm pretty sure you don't need AppleIntelE1000.kext and Atheros2200Ethernet.kext since those don't correspond to the network chipset of this motherboard (which is the Realtek). So fakeSMC (+plugins for hardware monitor) and Realtek are enough.

DDC is the proper way to do this, as the apps that overlay a black transparent window decrease contrast and color range. Unfortunately DDC suffers from bad support from everyone (monitor constructors and apple SDK), which is why DDC-CI can only set a brightness and not retrieve one (which is why...

Well it's at least *partly* supported: on my hack with the same chip, the USB3 devices I plug directly on the USB3 ports work at USB3 speeds. I have the same problem when I connect a hub though.

I have the same board, and for me the USB3 ports mostly work, at least for USB3 devices (10.11.1, Clover, MacPro3,1 SMBIOS). I tested an USB3 stick and and USB3 external hard disk and both mount and transfer at USB3 speeds. I have another USB3 stick that would mount but unmount if I tried to...

I have a Z68 board with the same USB chip (Etron), and I seem to have the same problem. The USB3 ports seem to work natively (quite surprisingly), but connecting a hub doesn't work. What is your SMBIOS ? What are the name of your USB ports in IOregistry ?

I have the GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 board, with the same Etron USB3 controllers, and now the USB 3 ports seem to work natively on El Capitan (no need for kext or patches). Connecting a hub to them doesn't seem to work though, I have to do more testing. I use clover and the UEFI U1L bios.

It worked for me with that board and processor (updated to UEFI U1L) and clover, using MacPro 3.1 SMBIOS (I don't use the integrated graphics though). Did you make sure you have the important kexts (latest fake SMC mostly) in the proper folder in the EFI partition (Clover/Kexts/10.11) ? And did...

Just don't inject nvidia. With web drivers and Maxwell cards, the other two boot flags are enough (nvda_drv=1 dev_mode=1)

Just did a test update to El Capitan on the Z68X-UD3H-B3 with UEFI bios U1L (i5 2500K, GTX 970, Mac Pro 3.1 SMBIOS)... and everything seems to work very nicely... actually better than in Yosemite at first sight. • The USB 3 chip (Etron) is recognized natively (I had to use clover patches in...

Just did a test install, the USB 3 chip in my Z68X-UD3H-B3 (Etron EJ168) does indeed seem to work natively in El Capitan !

Wondering about the same thing (Etron USB3 controller, now working nicely in 10.10 with clover patches). If there is no hope, what is the status of USB3 PCI cards in El Cap, are any natively supported ?

Anyone making the jump to El Capitan with this build ? I'm pretty curious about how it goes. Currently I'm on 10.10.5, with bios updated to UEFI and clover. Wondering about USB3 and all.

Apparently these drivers provide Metal support, woo !

It could be because your mac sees the monitor as a TV. The way to correct that is to do an EDID override. Try to follow instructions there http://www.ireckon.net/2013/03/force-rgb-mode-in-mac-os-x-to-fix-the-picture-quality-of-an-external-monitor
