Good Post! I managed to buy a refurb'd Sapphire Nitro+ 6800 (non-XT) from Newegg for $360 in Feb. '24. From time to time they have them, scroll to the bottom of the page and set-up "auto-notify" https://www.newegg.com/p/pl?N=50001561%20100007709%20601359422%20601359427%20601359957&Order=1

Are you supposed to dust off the driver directly, or just play them with loud volume to auto-dust the drivers?:shh:

Has anyone real world experience with the brands: Team Group? Or, Silicon Power? I bought two 1TB Silicon Power 2.5" SSDs Model# A55 in 2020. I wanted to use them for some intensive solid state recording application and they repeatedly failed for that application. I later went on the look up...

where can that efi be found?

My Z77 UD5H is still on 10.14.6 and I haven't used it in awhile. So I don't have any Catalina experience. I did document my adventures successfully booting it form NVMe here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/slugnets-video-editor-ga-z77x-ud5h-i7-3770k-gigabyte-geforce-gtx-660-ti.70530/page-59...

What's the shortage due to this time, the pandemic or is it still crypto currency mining?

While there were many conflicting reports when I did my research last winter, I was trying to link to the post above the one you quoted, that states that it is possible that it works with just the official firmware: so I tried it and am merely reporting my success in my configuration (below...

I have been booting my GA-Z77X-UD5H with the latest official bios (see signature) for 10 months without issues. I am using a Intel 660 1TB NVMe. More here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/slugnets-video-editor-ga-z77x-ud5h-i7-3770k-gigabyte-geforce-gtx-660-ti.70530/page-60#post-2082384 I...

I saw this too. I am happy with the 9700k for the moment. Do we think in a year or two this 9900k will be sold for ca. $200?

Hi Casey, I have been following your progress here for months and am in the middle of my build. This is an amazing thread and it seems all very clearly laid out until... In the installation instructions at #20. I skipped logging into my iCloud account, because I am hoping later on, when...

I just got this today myself. First time. 10.14.6. Upon reboot all is well again. @DmitriZigany did you ever get it sorted?

No the CPU is maxed out. Do you still need the EFI? That workstation isn't nearby right now, but, I get to it every few days. I've never shared an EFI, got to remove the SN I think...

Thanks for the answers, I'll make sure he sees them!

Asking for a friend in audio production who wants to stay on 10.12.6 for software reasons (IDK the reasons or what software). He wants 2020 Mac performance and still to be able to run 10.12.6. Any suggestions of what's possible, backwards CPU spoofing? Any builds here you can point me (to...

Hi @Solidww Yes, I would like to know more! I should note I am not using FCPX. I am using PremierePro 2018 and am moving towards Davinci Resolve 16 (DR16) for it's cross platform usefulness and FCPX-like new cut page. MY Z77 UD5H rig in my signature has been great, but, I don't think I have...

I don't understand USB issues well myself, but, on any forums, you can't expect "good" + "free" help to arrive "fast".

I hope you are back on your feet quickly! Get well soon @Stork !

I agree. I just installed a Intel 660p 1TB NVMe formatted APFS and went to check on TRIM and was surprised to see it was enabled by default on 10.14.6. I thought that was interesting, as I used to having to turn it on in past OS's and on SSDs. This is my 1st NVMe, it's my boot device and has...

Reporting back in case anyone else is contemplating this. Last week I got my Z77x-UD5H rev 1.1, 3770k, F16j, OS 10.14.6 booting off NVMe in the PCIex4 slot at full speed (Intel 660 upto ~1800 MB/sec) using a x4 PCIe adapter for $8 on Amazon. Details here and the posts above it...

@trs96 Nice find! I am checking my Newegg deals in my email everyday and the ones you post are all NOT in the emailed listings. -Thank you! I was eyeing the SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 570 8GB at Newegg for $145 after $10 discount, for a MacPro 5,1 refresh I have going on atm, but then I scored an...
