@CaseySJ Hi Casey, I've been following your build guide since 2019, and it has been working beautifully. Thank you so much! I've been wanting to upgrade my GPU to a better one from my RADEON VII to play diablo 4 but I have not been keeping up with the compatibility of the latest GPU. I did a...

Hi, how is Big Sur working for people who are running OC 0.6.3? Any big bugs worth mentioning?

When I first install the drive, it booted up fine with no problem right away. Used it for a day before I had to boot into windows for some work. It was working fine there. I booted back into MacOS and it does not show up anymore. I booted into my backup MacOS drive, it recognized the drive for...

Hey @CaseySJ How are you doing today? I just recently got a WD Easy Storage 12TB 7200RPM Sata Drive shucked out to put into my hackintosh. I currently have three drives, one Samsung 970 Plus 1TB NVME through NVME upper slot, one Sabrent 1TB for Windows through NVME lower slot, one WD 500GB...

This sounds exactly like the issue I was having. I was running 5700 XT on 10.15.3, 19,1 smbios for a while with no problem, 10.15.4 came and the black screen started. I tried everything and the only thing that worked is no WEG. But it was not a good solution since the computer was kinda...

Hmm, so I just went back to 1,1 after using 19,1 for 7 months after switching to Opencore. Strangely, it is a lot more stable for some reason. Thanks for the suggestion! My config is z390 designare, 9900k, radeon VII (also have a 5700 xt pulse on the side). May I ask which boot aghs do you use...

Can you explain why 1,1 is better than 19,1 for coffeelake or kabylake for performance and stability? I have been using 19,1 for a while with my 9900k but never could get DRM to work with my 5700xt no matter what boot aghs I tried. 1,1 enabled DRM but I thought it would not be as compatible...

Hey @CaseySJ Thank you for such a quick update on OC 0.6.0! It's running beautifully for me from a few hours testing. I previously had trouble with getting 5700xt pulse to get past the black screen using provided EFI folder but this WEG update seems to fix it. The only thing left is probably...

Thank you so much for your quick reply Casey. Not sure why mine is not booting. Using my Radeon VII and the EFI folder is working perfectly, just not with the 5700 XT pulse and WEG kext. Maybe time to go back to Clover and see if it is more stable. I switched to OC about 4 months ago, not sure...

Hey CaseySJ, Is your 5700 XT is still working properly with OC 5.0.9 after 10.15.6 update? Mine has been giving black screen at boot since 10.15.5 after runing 10.15.3 and OC 5.0.7 for months with no problem. Only way to get my 5700 XT to boot right now on 10.15.6 and OC 0.5.9 is to take off...

So I'm having the same problem as multiple people here. I'm using 5700 XT Pulse with Z390 Designare, i9 9900k with OpenCore 0.5.9. I have been runing 10.15.3 with OC 0.5.7 for a few months perfectly with no problem. Recently updated to 10.15.5 and then 10.15.6 and keep getting black screen on...

Hey @CaseySJ So I'm having a very strange problem. My OC 5.0.8 on 10.15.4 has been running perfectly for a month or two now. Recently I updated it to 10.15.5 and it was fine. I then backup the 10.15.5 to my spare drive. Yesterday I did the update to OC 0.5.9 and somehow the DisplayPort of my...

Hey @CaseySJ OC 0.5.9 just released today, will you be updating the mini guide soon?

I also read this on the forum, this question has been asked before. I think in this post jaymonkey gave some good insights. https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/how-to-enable-amd-gpu-encoding-instead-of-intels.277372/post-1957651

I have not tried it. I did use NDK 0.5.7 for a little while but changed to the standard version since I saw no benefit outside of the GUI. But with the new OC 0.5.8, opencanopy now is working properly with timeout option. Not sure if it is really necessary for most people to use NDK version...

Hey @CaseySJ I just did the OC upgrade from 0.5.7 to 0.5.8. OC 0.5.8 made some changes such as integrated apfs to OC so we don't need apfs driver anymore. Changed Protocol to ProtocolOverrides ..etc I made some changes to the config.plist according to OC 0.5.8 sample.plist and tweaked it...

I was waiting for this but too bad it still has the TouchBar and the 10th gen option starts out at $1800. But at least that one has 16GB RAM and 512gb storage. Also upgrading the new MBP from 8GB to 16GB is only $100 but the Air and all the laptop options before are $200. Interesting.

I'm not sure if disabling it switches to 1.3 or 1.4 since it does not say anything on the monitor or system report. LG 27UK850W specs page said DP ver 1.2 only. But it is definitely the reason why all the lags happened. It has been a few days and my system has been running beautifully.

Yes, well technically all I did was disabling 1.2 DP in the monitor setting like the screenshot. I don't know if it changed to 1.1 or not since I thought DP 1.1 could only output 4k at 30hz. But after I disabled it, all the problems went away.

After I disabled the setting, both monitor worked perfectly with no lags or stutters at 60hz (according to system report). Haven't seen any freezing or crashing so far. Even netflix safari, apple tv+, prime and hardware acceleration all worked without shikigva=80 (DRM did not work before no...
