Hi I've just swapped a Sapphire RX580 for an XFX Radeon RX590 in my existing system: i7 10700K, Sonoma, AsRock Z490-M-ITX, OpenCore 0.9.6, SMBIOS iMac20,1 Everything seems to be working ok but the machine only reports 15MB (!) of RAM for the "Graphics" under About This Mac and if I'm honest...

This is a first for me, I've had my system running fine for several years and always gone through minor & major updates without an issue. Until today. After ensuring my OpenCore was current (0.8.5) along with kexts, I backed up my machine to Time Machine and attempted to upgrade from Monterey...

To try and resolve my issues with having no audio (https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/no-audio-or-bluetooth-after-monterey-upgrade.316571/) I decided to create an entirely fresh OC 0.7.4 EFI / config.plistby working through the OpenCore docs. This resolved my issue with audio, not Bluetooth but...

Hi, My upgrade went ahead fine in so much as the new OS has installed OK - but, I no longer have audio or Bluetooth which were working fine in Big Sur. Nothing else has changed on my system except for updating to the OS, the latest version of Lilu, WhateverGreen and other kexts I have...

Hi, ASRock Z490M-ITX/ac Intel i7-10700K OpenCore 0.6.3 AppleALC 1.5.4 I just updated to Big Sur and all* went smoothly - I left the process running cia Software Update and returned to find a Big Sur login screen. *However I now have no audio. According to the release notes for AppleALC...

I found this information by accident so in case it's news to others: "Itlwm" is a kext to enable a range of Intel "on board" WiFi hardware. Such hardware might be embedded into laptops or plugged in via M.2 cards on desktop motherboards, such as the ASRock Z490M I'm using...

I'd like to get my temperature and fan sensors reporting data to HWMonitor / Temp Monitor etc again. I used to have this working ok on my previous build but tbh I've forgotten the magic sauce and in any case I'm now running an OpenCore based system which may be different. Does anyone know the...

Hi, If I want to add a new kext into my EFI > OC > Kexts - is the easiest way to place the kext into EFI > OC > Kexts and then use Propertree to perform a File > OC Snapshot ? It feels right but I wondered if this would duplicate all my existing Kexts found in the snaphot process or it would...

Hi, I have a need to drive three independent screens from a single PCIe GPU. Is that possible? If so would someone be able to recommend a card that plays nicely in the Hackintosh world please? I currently have a Saphire Pulse Radeon RX580 with two screens attached to it via its 2 x DVI...

This is one of those posts where the title pretty much says it all. ;-0 I'm looking for the cheapest, basic spec PCIe GPU that will be natively recognised my macOS with no clover work on config changes. It's for general desktop use. Suggestions much appreciated. Obviously older cards are...

I know this has happened to lots of people over the years but it's the first time it's happened for me and I'm out of ideas for things to try next. I've done lots of searching here & elsewhere without success. Summary: We had a perfectly happy hackintosh, based on a Gigabyte H170N-WiFi. It...

This is driving me crazy and I can't begin to imagine what it relates to. Asus ROG-Z370-G i7 8700K AMD RX580 Catalina 10.15.1 500GB Samsung SSD Onboard Ethernet I'm running a @pastrychef build with the above spec and have been for some, perfectly hapily. Until Catalina. I've ensured that ny...

Wondered if anyone had any thoughts on what this issue might be? My Hackintosh setup works great and in terms of displays, each monitor looks fine to me. However, just recently something has changed such that very light grey backgrounds become indistinguishable from white. I'd never have...

I have the config.plist DefaultVoume set to Macintosh SSD (the name of my internal drive). Yet whenever I restart, Clover defaults to trying to boot from an "Macintosh Install" volume. The strange thing is that this has only recently started happening, after about a year of trouble-free...

I'll be building with an ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-G socket 1151 motherboard and an Intel 8700K which I plan to overclock (https://goo.gl/4wn3Vr) . I'm at the RAM-buying stage and need a total of 32GB DDR4. To get the maximum speed benefit from the RAM, am I better buying 2 x 16GB DIMMS and...

There's no specific point to this post except to say thanks to @RehabMan for everything you do. Today's project was to get a 3rd party BCM94352Z WiFi + bluetooth card up & running on our Gigabyte GA-H170N. The recipe: OSX BrcmPatchRAM by RehabMan BrcmFirmwareData.kext BrcmPatchRAM2.kext...

Since updating to Mojave from High Sierra, the Energy Saver option in System Preferences only presents me with a "Turn display off after:" slider. There's no similar option beneath it for setting the sleep time of the system itself (as opposed to the display) This has never happened to me...

It's fair to say I had a nightmare upgrade from High Sierra to Mojave, more problems than I can ever remember in eight years! :) Somehow though on the shoulders of others, I have managed to achieve audio (native ALC), HD530 internal graphics and Nvidia GTX760 all in harmony with each other and...

I'm pulling my hair out trying to get the HD530 IGFX DVI socket to work on my i6700 / Gigabyte HA-170N. Never before has it been a problem until Mojave. I'm beginning to wonder if, for whatever reason, Lilu and Whatevergreen aren't being enabled / loaded at boot. I've installed them into...

Despite being here since 2010 I have yet to grasp a good understanding of the different locations that kexts can exist in and whether there's a "right" place for them to be. Back in the Chameleon days before Clover it may have been different, but keeping things relevant for the current macOS...
