Thanks Jay. I actually have 2 10th gen systems. One with a Z490 Vision-D 10900K and last year I picked up another Z490 Aorus Master on blow out for $100 and paired it with another 10900K (haven't assembled that one yet though)... I feel like I am getting behind the times reading everyone...
Maybe others can chime in. Is 10th gen the best experience to stick with? Debating going to a newer gen cpu. Is it a hassle to maintain a newer gen processor like 13th-14th gen? Is 10th gen just going to be the best compatible cpu for best Mac experience. Ultimately I jsut want reliable and...
This is good to hear. I am debating grabbing one as I think they are pretty much disappearing from stores. I don't see the 7900 XT getting driver support either. Spoofing would probably be the safest/most versatile method in case there is a need to boot into Windows.
If anyone else has...
Thanks! You have full acceleration in all apps?
Have you heard of the method to clone the AMD 6900 XT reference BIOS to the AMD 6950 XT reference? There is a thread on macrumors? Macrumors Link
Obviously this would downgrade the card, but would make compatibility more seamless I think?
So, I am entertaining getting a 6950 XT. I have been reading some mixed articles on whether it is compatible with MacOS. Can anyone confirm whether it is a reliable card to Hackintosh with? My understanding is that you can Spoof the card ID to act like a 6900 XT through ssdt's. Is this...
what would the best card for compatibility right now? all apple features working? is there a difference whether it is pcie or m.2? looking to get something for a new build I am doing.. right now I have a pcie BCM94360CD card.. is that still the best for compatibility?
Yes, Redshift is pretty intensive, but I am not doing Hollywood productions so the chance of going dual GPU are slim. Just a consideration. It comes down to the all mighty dollar I suppose and what you can get for it. I just heard back from a parts store that they would match a price on a...
yes, there is trade off on that last PCie slot for each board. Yes, I am aware putting the 10g card in the second slot instead on the Asus board. I am not sure if a 6900 XT needs more than 8x was the only concern with that. also, future proofing just in case I get a dual 6900 XT system...
Does the Vision D have the same quirk as the asus proart board where if you put a card in the third PCI slot, Thunderbolt is disabled? I am looking at boards, and the Z490 Aorus Master still seems to be around. I'm thinking maybe an Aorus Master and a Thunderbolt card if I can't track down...
this is exactly what I have decided to do.. 10 years of running hackintosh I see the extreme benefit of having the most compatible components. Looking for another Vision D. I appreciate the input. I really do! It's tough wanting to get the latest and greatest, but realizing the actual long...
These are all valid points. I definitely want to stay to most compatible. I'm just curious the pro's and cons of getting a Z590 with a 10900K? is the z590 supported? I suppose a z590 with a Thunderbolt 4 chipset is going to be troublesome? Ideally I would like to get another Z490 Vision D...
Can you elaborate? If I put a 5700 XT in, are there going to be missing features still? As caseysj mentioned, changing the system profile to a macpro should bypass the iGPU dependence? Are there other things to look out for?
Yeah, I am really looking into just getting a Z590 and a 11900K and trying to run a hypervisor. Keep thinking about back and forth! hard to decide! 13900K is coming soon too.. but there are so many deals on 11900K and Z590 boards right now.
MacPro system profile makes sense. Are there any other missing features you can think of. I assume sleep and power management features should work once you spoof the CPU. Sidecar isn't a huge deal breaker. I am thinking I might even just upgrade this ivy bridge system instead now and have two...
thanks for the reply. good to know. it is hard to figure out the best course. I have read that you need to spoof the processor. again my biggest worry to is if features in macOS will require the igpu to work. namely things like sidecar. I have read in other builds by caseySJ that sidecar...
I spoke a while back about possibly upgrading and getting a 11900K for the Vision-D. There are sales on locally fro the 11900K and I am still on the fence. I confirmed earlier with gigabyte that full PCIe4 is capable on the board. My biggest concern is the compatibility with Hackintoshing. Is...
Still running my 3770K Ivy Bridge, in Monterey. Every few years I upgraded the GPU. Right now running a 5700 XT. This machine works very well. I have a 10900K Z490 Vision-D in boxes here, just haven't had the time to build it yet. Looks like Ventura will not work on Ivy Bridge due to lack of...
I was researching last night and noticed this too! It will be the one I get. Apparently, it is very well built and has quality fans too. Thanks for the recommendation!
