    OpenCore locks out BIOS

    Just done my first OpenCore build on an old haswell machine for someone. You're a lifesaver, thank you! Still getting proper strange behaviour though, if I use the arrow keys on my keyboard to select anything on OpenCore, it locks up and continuously scrolls like the down key is frozen. Also...

    Guaranteed No-Fan-Spin AMD card?

    Just thought I'd come back to say after a fresh install on Mojave, things are working really well. My export times for h264 have gone from 45 minutes for a 1hr clip to 12 minutes with Apple Hardware h264 enabled. Sustaining such an operation and the card is only at 55 degrees, it does seem 60...

    Guaranteed No-Fan-Spin AMD card?

    Card arrived today, plopped in fine. Not even touched my clover yet coming from nVidia 1050ti... however I enabled freesync in windows and now my LG ultrawide (only 1080p) looks like ****. I can see like white around all the black text... hard to describe but something has changed and it looks...

    Guaranteed No-Fan-Spin AMD card?

    Thanks. We are in similar situations. My case is Fractal r4, Noctua heatsink and low power fans, and the traffic haha! My PSU is not silent, but it's damn quiet. It's also only 500w, so I may have to beef it up to power a card. Will look into it. My current card is powered through the PCIe slot...

    Guaranteed No-Fan-Spin AMD card?

    Hey there. I've been on High Sierra for a while with a silent passive 1050ti. I use my machine for recording audio mostly, and i need the machine to be as near silent as possible. It works really well at the moment and has done for years but I'm starting to use FCPX a lot more, and would like to...

    RME Raydat Pcie problem...

    I haven't installed Mojave because I'm on Nvidia graphics.. but RME PCIe RayDAT has worked for me for years on all hackintosh installs up to High Sierra. Have you tried a different PCIe slot if possible? Or maybe even booting to windows, and installing drivers for RayDAT and flashing there? Also...

    Confirmed Audio Interfaces (Hobbyist/Pro-sumer/Pro) & Drivers - Mac OS X

    I have an RME PCIe RayDAT card, and although it's expensive, it's a true pro level card with expertly written drivers and minimal latency that will last you an entire career. I've had mine about 6 years, and it's faultless on windows and every hack since my first, which I think was like mountain...

    << Solved >> Do the Samsung 970 EVO Plus drives work ? New Firmware Available 2B2QEXM7

    Christ. What a waste of an evening. And I've already wiped and changed out my Intel 600p... What a ballache. I have to remove gfx card to reach the nvme slot. I never thought to check the brand of ssd. Was trying high Sierra install on 500gb 970EvoPlus. Would always just lock up on phase two...

    Thanks so much, I will bear that in mind when I get to the point that I am forced to upgrade.

    NVIDIA Releases Alternate Graphics Drivers for macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 (387.10.10.10.40)

    Starting to think the same... I'm always coming back to this thread and dreaming haha!!! Just as an aside, I don't really know much about ATI cards, but I have a fully passive GTX1050ti... what would be the equivalent ATI card that would work with mojave? Does anyone know? I would be willing to...

    Skylake HWP Enable

    I am on high sierra and this thread has allowed me to stress test my mac without it restarting now, which is great. Before, the temps would hit 73 and the computer would reset. Now it chugs along at 73 and 4.2ghz much better under the 'yes' stress test. However, in windows the CPU clocks up to...

    << Solved >> Hackintosh Crashing (Photoshop/Final Cut/4K)

    this is a long shot, but I've had similar problems whenever H.264 encoding started, the computer would reset. It would also sometimes reset due to disk activity, slowly glitching then grinding to a halt. I wasn't sure if the two were related or both were happening at different times. I first...

    Glitch H264 video after enabling KBL QuickSync HD 630 (Final Cut)

    Another update.... I went back to my old settings with no internal gfx... and the render problems stayed. I had to restore a new system image from the week before.... and only that would fix the problem. It's a shame because VLC seemed to decode x264 anad x265 much smoother with the settings...

    Glitch H264 video after enabling KBL QuickSync HD 630 (Final Cut)

    I am on a system with nVidia 1050ti , and an i7 6700k, and today I got hyped for getting Quick Sync set up. I got it working, both graphics cards are showing in System Properties, and Final Cut seems to render slightly faster... however I have the same problem. Any titles generated in Final Cut...
