I use istat pro and I can see CPU and GPUs fans. Haven’t tried HWmonitor. Not sure about case fans either.

Thank you for the guides! I will use your guides when I can afford a Radeon GPU or I get lucky and NVIDIA releases a Mojave driver.

Yes, 10.14.5 is smooth as usual.

Update 6/26/19: I have finally mapped the remaining USB C ports. The only catch is all the USB ports on this system go over 15-port limit. So you may have to disable some ports, or you may have to use the remove USB port limit patch which gives me trouble sometimes (e.g. USB devices gets "unplugged" as I plug another USB device in)

Hi Guys,

Wondering if any of you can help on this:

I have an XPS 8920 with the i7 7700 and GTX1080.

I have not been able to get the graphics acceleration to work correctly. The help in this thread has been great and I have the system running but the graphics seem to be distorted especially near the top of the screen. Also FCPX will comment that there is no acceleration hence I am not able to use that too.

I have attached my EFI for easy reference.

Thanks in advance
