ASUS ROG Rampage VI Extreme Omega

[MacEATX]

Hi,

Has anyone built a hackintosh with the ASUS ROG Rampage VI Extreme Omega motherboard, yet? Does anyone see any technical issues with using this motherboard?

only with the RR6 extreme (non omega)

I'm using the Rampage VI Extreme Omega and is working great.
I followed the article from @kgp with success

Great news! Can you check if onboard 10g works OOB? And have you tried thunderbolt? I assume thunderbolt hotplug wouldn’t work because there’s no tb header on the board

 

[TiBian]

The onboard 10g is working great.
for the moment I can't test the thunderbolt if is working correct!! (I don't have any device with thunderbolt)

I can't even seem to boot for the installation with the omega. Did you use patched bios or did it work with the default one?

I have the Asus Rog Omega up and running. It works great but I have audio playback issues. The motherboard doesn't have a thunderbolt header so thunderbolt is not an option. Everything else works flawlessly though. The Asus sage 10 is a way better board for x299 build. I have tested one and even my audio problems were gone. The thunderbolt card i used was not showing up in the system though. Update your bios to the latest version and try my post below, Hope this helped!

your kexts are giving the problem. Ensure you have the latest version of Mac Os Mojave complete file and instead of using multi beast just build the drive through terminal and add the kexts you need with clover configurator.

Required drivers64UEFI

1. ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi

2. AppleImageLoader-64.efi

3. AptioMemoryFix-64.efi

(May need to swap the above out with

A. OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi

B. OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi

C. Test2-2016.efi

D. OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi and Test2-2016.efi {both}

E. OsxAptioFix3Drv-64.efi

If you get the memory allocation error)

Installation disk must be formatted as macOs Extended Journal

4. AudioDxe-64.efi

5. DataHubDxe-64.efi

6. FSInject-64.efi

7. SMCHelper-64.efi

8. VBoxHfs-64.efi

9. CsmVideoDxe-64 (for full resolution in clover)

Here is the bios setting recommended by @kgp
B2.) ASUS BIOS Configuration

After Updating System time and System Date, enable X.M.P for your DDR4 modules. Don't forget to enable the EZ XMP Switch previously to this step on your ASUS Mainboard! Subsequently switch form the easy to the advanced ASUS BIOS Setup mode by pressing F7.

I use all optimized BIOS settings (OoB, no OC yet) despite a few changes listed in detail below:

1.) /AI Tweaker/
a.) ASUS MultiCore Enhancement: Auto
b.) AVX Instruction Core Ratio Negative Offset: "3"
c.) AVX-512 Instruction Core Ratio Negative Offset: "2"
d.) CPU Core Ratio: Sync All Cores
e.) CPU SVID Support: Enabled
f.) DRAM Frequency: DDR4-3200MHz (in my particular case)

2.) /Advanced/CPU Configuration/
a.) Hyper Threading [ALL]: Enabled
b.) MSR Lock Control: Disabled

3.) /Advanced/CPU Configuration/CPU Power Management Configuration/
a.) Enhanced Intel Speed Step Technology (EIST): Enabled
b.) Autonomous Core C-States: Enabled
c.) Enhanced Halt State (C1E): Enabled
d.) CPU C6 report: Enabled
e.) Package C-State: C6(non retention) state
f.) Intel SpeedShift Technology: Enabled
g.) MFC Mode Override: OS Native

4.) /Advanced/Platform Misc Configuration/
a.) PCI Express Native Power Management: Disabled
b.) PCH DMI ASPM: Disabled
d.) ASPM: Disabled
e.) DMI Link ASPM Control: Disabled
f.) PEG - ASMP: Disabled

5.) /Advanced/System Agent Configuration/
a.) Intel VT for Directed I/O (VT-d): Disabled/Enabled

6.) /Boot/
a.) Fast Boot: Disabled
b.) Above 4G Decoding: Off (must be ON with Prime X299 Deluxe BIOS firmware 1603 and 1704 and WS X299 Sage 10G BIOS firmware 0905 in case of GPU firmware load and XHCI ACPI implementation issues. When employing WS X299 Sage 10G BIOS firmware 0905 and enabling Above 4G Decoding in the respective BIOS settings as required, "First VGA 4G Decode" must be set to "Auto", as both Windows 10 and macOS can become irresponsive with different "First VGA 4G Decode" settings.
c.) Set your specific Boot Option Priorities

7.) /Boot/Boot Configuration
a.) Boot Logo Display: Auto
b.) Boot up NumLock State: Disabled
c.) Setup Mode: Advanced

8.) /Boot/Compatibility Support Module/

With F7 and F10 you can save the modified BIOS settings.

Note the important additional comments to the above BIOS settings provided in Section B.2) of my iMac Pro Syklake-X/X299 macOS 10.13 High Sierra Build and Desktop Guide.

I can't even seem to boot for the installation with the omega. Did you use patched bios or did it work with the default one?

Just realized that you are using NVIDIA Graphics, they are not supported sir!
