    Another stuck at Apple logo during install

    To capture the kernel panic info shoot the screen in Slo-Mo. Then screen shot the video/frame on your phone and upload it.

    GA-Z68XP-UD3 - Installation - Black screen after Apple Logo/Progress Bar

    Hello Everyone, UniBeast install on new SSD. Sierra has been running flawlessly for years on my eight year old GA-Z68XP-UD3 motherboard. Since I'm homebound it's a great time to update to Catalina. Using a new SSD the installation process was going well until the Apple Logo/Progress Bar. The...

    Final Cut Pro X FCPX Graphic Card performance

    Hi Heinrich! Believe it or not I finally installed the 280X after 6 months. I didn't want to mess up my current Sierra/Nvidia install. So thought I do a clean install of Mojave with the 280X. Had some issues with black screen during the install (will do another day) so for grins booted with my...

    Final Cut Pro X FCPX Graphic Card performance

    Many, Many Thanks rwillett! I just purchased a Sapphire Radeon R9 280X - 3GB on eBay for $100. Thanks for the heads up on the MSI cards as there's a number for sale on eBay. My fingers are crossed and I'm sure the card is better than my EVGA GeForce GTX 560. Now I gotta figure out how to run an...

    Final Cut Pro X FCPX Graphic Card performance

    Hello Everyone! I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card to an AMD card to improve performance with Final Cut Pro X. I'm running a 6+ year old hackintosh w/Gigabyte Z68XP-UD3 motherboard. I've installed a new Sapphire Radeon PULSE RX 580 8GB last week but the computer wouldn't post or boot. The...

    AMD RX580

    Thanks trs96! My PSU has been problem free for 6 years. It's a real workhorse. More than likely my motherboard is the issue. At this time I'm not ready for a new hackintosh build. But I'm doing more video editing so I might change my mind.

    AMD RX580

    From my research around the internet it's still not too clear if my motherboard or PSU (KINGWIN LZP-1000) is too old to run the Sapphire RX 580 Pulse 8GB. Any feed back on the above post would be appreciated. Thanks!

    AMD RX580

    Thanks for the super quick response trs96. Wow! I just checked how old my current hackintosh is! It's 6 years old. Time flies when your Hackintosh runs great. The PSU is a 1000W. I can't see the label but I'll check my invoices if it matters. Update: See Below for the details of my PSU. KINGWIN...

    AMD RX580

    I'm bummed! There's a good chance my old motherboard (GA-Z68XP-UD3) isn't compatible with my new Sapphire RX 580 Pulse 8GB. I've installed the graphic card and connected the 8-pin power adapter. Computer will not power on. Behaves as if the computer is not plugged in. If I disconnect the 8-pin...

    Apple-recommended AMD Graphics Cards for eGPU Use - macOS High Sierra 10.13.4+

    Facebook reeks havoc with Safari and I haven't upgraded my graphics card yet (RX 580 Pulse arriving tomorrow). Still running an old EVGA GeForce GTX 560 2048 MB with Sierra. This might help. In Safari turn on the Debug menu. Debug --> Drawing/Compositing Flags --> select "Disable full page...

    macOS 10.12.6 Update

    Installed Clover 4439. The first boot was slow. Computer froze after 10 minutes (don't fix what ain't broke!). The second reboot was way faster. Hoping my computer doesn't freeze or I'm going back the 1411.

    macOS 10.12.6 Update

    Updated via the App Store. Was the most easiest update in a while. Not like 10.12.5 which was a pain. Sound worked no need to reinstall audio.
