If you think it might work, I can add a connector for some of the motherboard USB 2 ports.

Yes, clover boots fine with RX 580 and UHD 630. I do not get to the end of the Stage 1 installer with the RX 580 installed. No disk utility, etc. Several 32 GB USB 3 flash drives. One 32 GB USB 2 flash drive. No difference. No USB 2 ports on my case, so all connected to USB 3 ports. I was able...

Yes. 4K monitor connected to RX 580 via DisplayPort.

Thank you again for your reply. I followed your suggestions carefully with the same result. I hang with black screen. The last line in the display is IOConsoleUsers: gIOScreenLockState 3, hs 0, bs 0, now 0, sm 0x0. I updated the BIOS for my motherboard. I started over with a new installer for...

Hi CaseySJ, Thank you for your quick reply. Like you, I copied dummy serial numbers for my post. All of my tests use Clover configurator generated serial numbers. I generated a new serial number and copied it to RT Variable MLB and set CsrActiveConfig to 0x67 as you suggested. With and without...

I am at an impasse. My hardware: Gigabyte Z390 M GAMING Intel Core i7-9700K Ballistix Sport LT 64GB 2 x Samsung 970 EVO 1TB - NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 SSD Sapphire 11265-05-20G Radeon Pulse RX 580 8GB Fractal Design Define Mini C case I am very pleased with this hardware. It runs Windows 10...

It looks like we will be able to use diskutil to make fusion drives for hacks as well as older macs. http://jollyjinx.tumblr.com Good news!

Google (or search just tonymacx86) for "kozlek" for his branch of hardware sensor software. https://github.com/kozlek/HWSensors Cheers!

Mac OS X software RAID only supports RAID 0 and 1. You will need a separate hardware RAID card for RAID 5 such as: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Highpoint%20Technologies/RRAID2224/ If you get four drives you can use Mac OS X software to make a RAID 1 set of RAID 0 sets. I also boot...

Hard to say without knowing what you want to put in each partition. If you only have one disk and you are only running Mac OS X, then it is reasonable to use just one partition. Here is a very good introduction to hard drive performance and how to partition and RAID drives...

I think that you will be pleased by the 3930K. Lightroom can use the extra cores and hyperthreading. The main thing that you will lose is fine-tuned power management. Pay attention to the motherboard size for the case and the RAM clearance and PCIe slot clearance for the CPU cooler. You may also...

Re: What do you think? I think you will be happy with the i5-3570K, 16GB RAM, Samsung 128GB SSD and WD Green 2TB. Probably HD4000 graphics will be fine, so you could wait on the graphics card. Buy a high quality 24 or 27 inch IPS display and a color calibration tool. (You will need a...

Consider using an i7-3770K instead. Lightroom spends most of its time calculating. The i7 will be significantly faster. Also, mITX has limited RAM capacity. Moving to mATX or ATX will give you up to 32 GB. The Samsung 830 SSD is excellent for compressed data that Lightroom uses. Consider getting...

I use Adobe Photoshop Lightroom extensively. Two of best places to get benchmark information for photography on Mac OS X including LR are: http://macperformanceguide.com and http://www.computer-darkroom.com/blog/will-an-ssd-improve-adobe-lightroom-performance/ Here are the steps in...

Thanks for the link! Overlord computers is within driving distance for me in Northern California. I will try to visit them when they receive the shipment and report back. I am looking for a monitor that is affordable and useful for photography and software development. I have been waiting a...

It looks like a promising alternative to the eBay monitors from Korea. http://www.compuplus.com/insidepage.php3?id=1218348 8 bit color is OK, but unfortunately for me, it appears that the COMP-U-PLUS monitor is glossy, not antiglare. http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?p=33770532

I second the suggestion for the Fractal Designs R4 (although I would pick black with no window). If you need no more than three 3.5 inch HDD and you buy a third 140 mm fan, then you can take out the top disk cage and have increased ventilation and quiet. This case supports seven 140 mm fans...
