Hey guys did anyone had any luck with Asus WS C621 and Xeon W-3265? Clover freezes on the PCI Begin part and its been so long since I had that issue that I forgot how to fix it.

I guess I didn’t really need the dock but it would’ve been nice to have everything plugged in on my desk and clean up my wires. Just going to buy a usb hub and save the money lol.
For BIOS 3101 did you patch it first with UEFITool and add SSDT-AWAC? Also remember to enable 4G Encoding and disable CSM.

Yup cards in with nothing or the Caldigit dock in one of them. Both cards with jumped pins 3 and 5 and usb 2 cable, one card with dual 6 pins. I’ve noticed that plugging in a USB 2 device causes instant wake from sleep. Might just be my usb hub that’s causing it though.

@djlild7hina, did not know about the patch, and I'm sticking with 2002 for now (didn't mean to say 905 last time, sorry). I've got both cards with dual 6-pins, not just one. Is that what you mean?

Well I've gotten some significant progress but still not there. I've tried a million ways with different results but found that the code 62 only shows on reboots usually, a shutdown and restart prevents it-but depending on slot config and SSDT, I still often don't get TB devices. But sometimes I can at least get the Titan Ridge working outside of slot 2 with BIOS disabled. Also I tried GPU in slot 1 and Titans in 3 and 4 as you suggested, but was having a hard time figuring which bridge number to put in, and it seemed Slot 3 was PC02 but Slot 4 went to PC01--wasn't sure how to adapt the SSDT for that. It'd panic sometimes depending on where the Broadcom was, it seems to me the devices are conflicting with each other somehow.
Anyway, for now I'm having decent luck with GPU in slot 3 and Titans in 1 & 2--this way they're able to be on PC02 as the SSDT is set up for. For bridge #'s I put in 00100000 and 00090000.
-Any idea why they're both showing up as Thunderbolt bus 0, and not like yours (0 & 1)?
-One other question I had was what the SL01 or SL05 means and how it should be changed for different slots.
It's getting closer at least!

Currently
Slot 1: Titan
Slot 2: Titan
Slot 3: WX 8200
Slot 4:
Slot 5: Broadcom

Hey all. Currently putting together a x299 system with a Sage/10g, and I have what feels like it might be a foolish question.

I went with a Fenvi T919 card for WiFi/Bluetooth and was curious if any other Fenvi T919 users could tell me where/how you are connecting the USB 2.0/1.1 Header Cable from the T919, to the motherboard. As far as I can see, there are no 9-pin USB headers on the Sage/10.

Is my best bet here a PCIe-based USB card with internal 9-pin headers?

You have 3 options
1: Use the internal usb 3 header with a usb 2 adapter.
2: PCIe based card that’s compatible with macOS with internal header (either USB 3 or USB 2) I’d recommend connecting the Fenvi to an onboard port though so you can wake from sleep with KB. If that doesn’t matter to you then this may be good.
3: Connect a cable from outside the case to internal with an adapter like this:

I’m personally using the internal usb 3 header with usb 2 adapter since I’m not using any of the front panel usbs.

Feel like the best option for GPU would be to put it in Slot-1 or Slot-5.
I’ve found it’s best to put the titan ridge cards on a separate PC0 as the gpu you’re using. And try to boot first with one titan ridge card without any tb devices plugged into it. If a device is under PC02 it’ll be under SL05. If it’s under PC01 it’ll be under SL01. The pci-bridges are below the SL01.

The reason they’re showing under bus 0 is the ssdts for thunderbolt aren’t properly configured. Also the Thunderbolt DROM needs to be adjusted per card so they appear under different buses.

Let’s try to get one card working first and stable then try adding another ;)

Have you also tried plugging in the additional 6 pin above slot-1?

Finally got two thunderbolt cards to show correctly on different buses. Had to take the DROM values from a real Mac Pro 2019 and adjust the CRC8 value. Not sure what is affected by this but my CalDigit dock appears to still work. Display out doesn't but it never did so I'm going to try ordering a different dock.

@pieropontra I was wondering about how that WX 8200 works for you? Are you editing with it? I suppose it has no metal support just Open CL in Premiere. Do you have a benchmark score? Any system lags with it? Technically it should work good since it's a Radeon architecture.

Also does it spin properly 4k h264 footage?

Ta!

I got a Radeon VII not a WX 8200 (which is the Pro version of the Vega 56). Do you need any info about VII?

PS: I think it's useless to buy Radeon Pros for hackintoshes, since drivers are built in macOS and developed by Apple you loose the purpose about spending big money on drivers (AMD's Pro drivers) you'll end up not using.

I'm assuming @InsomnIaHackintosh meant to send that to @dithaack
