Asus Z690 ProArt Creator WiFi (Thunderbolt 4) + i7-12700K + AMD RX 6800 XT

I could not get Intel Bluetooth to work.

• Did everything in the guide
• OC 8.3
• Monterey 12.6
• BIOS was 1720, updated to 2004 with no difference
• WiFi is working fine.

How should I proceed?

Thanks.

Let’s take a look at the following:

• Screenshot of OpenCore Configurator—> ACPI
• Screenshot of OpenCore Configurator —> Kernel
• Screenshot of IORegistryExplorer —> XHCI section with all HS__ ports expanded so we can see if Intel Bluetooth module is present

I'm trying to figure out why the Asus ROG Z690 and Asus Pro Z690 art have BIOS 1720; and why Asus Prime Z690 P 44 has BIOS number 1620; and why yours worked and mine didn't. Also, why do you use oc 0.8.3 not 0.8.4?

Is anyone running 128GB of memory on this mobo? Tech specs indicate 128GB, but list of compatible memory only goes up to 2x32.

@MacMarshall

I'm not using this motherboard or 128GB of memory, but I had a similar question about compatible memory for a Gigabyte Z690 Aero G DDR4. I checked Gigabyte's compatible memory page and nothing was listed as 64GB, which is what I wanted to install. It was listing 2 x 16GB sticks for 32GB installed. I gambled and bought 4 X 16GB of that memory and it worked fine.

I'm speculating that double the 2 X 32GB to get 128GB would probably work.

I did run across some guidance saying in my case to buy the 4 memory sticks as a package rather than two packages of two each. Supposedly memory vendors match the 4 sticks to give some assurance of compatibility.

Some follow-ups:

• Which motherboard are you using?
• On many boards, Intel Bluetooth is on HS14, but the USB SSDT currently in effect is disabling this port. Hence, there is no HS14 in IOReg screenshot.
• If you use SSDT-UIAC-ASUS-Z690-PROART-15-PORTS-V2.aml, then HS14 will be enabled. This SSDT is attached.

• I'll use the attached SSDT tomorrow and report back

Thanks

Update: Works like a charm, thanks. I think the main guide should be updated accordingly.

Hey Casey. I've been having a great time with this new build it works amazing. The one thing I still haven't figured out is why my Thunderbolt hot-plug does not work. Even if I boot into Windows without OpenCore as a bootloader. I open up Thunderbolt configuration software, and it shows that my device is attached. However, then it wont be read by the software or Windows audio.

I am running the latest BIOS for the Z690 Pro Art. I remember I asked you about this hot-plug issue but regarding macOS, and I believe now that its a universal issue with my system. My Thunderbolt BIOS settings are set to stock (just like your pictures).

Any idea what I should try next?
