In OSX I can see my TB adapters as well. but when I connect a Ethernet cable on it systemprefs won't get a IP
What happens when you connect your ethernet cable on windows ?
If nothing happens, try in the bios thunderbolt menu "legacy mode" and "memory 128".
If it does not work you can contact gigabyte esupport, they are very efficient.
I'm not sure I can help you more with that because only the screen of the apple thunderbolt display works, the usb, firewire, webcam, ethernet don't.
I'm able to get in with screensharing but why is the HDMI port gone when OSX arrives?
It's strange I didn't have this problem. First I tried with hdmi display, no problem.
Then 1 hdmi display and 1 apple thunderbolt display, no problem.
Then, 2 thunderbolt display (and no hdmi), 25% of time the 2nd thunderbolt display doesnt't work, I have to boot again so it works.
Your gpu switch to display port output or dvi output ? I don't know how you can force hdmi.
Can you tell me what you have done to get this setup running? Display port activated? How?
I have the same hardware as you have.
which slot for GPU?
Which slot TB-card?
Bios settings?
I have 1 gpu in slot 1, 1 gpu in slot 2, and thunderbolt card in slot 3.
I didn't change settings in bios except for the memory problem.
To "activate" my display port output, I plugged it to a display port screen to check that it was working. Then I rebooted with my display port output connected to the thunderbolt card.
Here is my build : (it s in user build section but will be deleted soon)
Hi !
Here is the hack I’ve done for a friend :
Gigabyte GA-X99-UD4
i7 5930K
32 GB ram
2 GTX 970
Gigabyte GC thunderbolt 2 add-in card
2 Apple Thunderbolt Display
keyboard and bluetooth apple
dongle usb bluetooth
Corsair 860w
yosemite 10.10.2
This hack is for editing (Final Cut Pro X) and After Effects.
I first tried to install with Clover but I figured out that Clover works only if you have just one GPU. With more, there is a problem of « allocation memory ».
The problem is known from the clover developers so I guess it will be fixed in a few weeks/months.
So I installed, at this point without the thunderbolt card, following these topics :
[SUCCESS] i7-5820k / GTX 970 / GA-X99-UD4 Yosemite 10.10.x [Full Temp Guide] (100% Working)
[SUCCESS] i7-5820k @ 4.3ghz, 2x GTX 970, GA-X99-UD4 Yosemite Hackintosh!
[Success] Gigabyte X99 UD4 / I7 5620K / GT610
[SUCCESS] i7-5820k @ 4.2ghz, GTX 760 4Gb OC, GA-X99-UD4 Yosemite Hackintosh!
My post install kext is the same as the one of the first link. My smbios MacPro 3.1.
For audio working, I installed HDAEnabler1.kext with kext wizard. Then I repared autorisations, permissions and I rebooted.
And I installed the patched AppleHDA.kext. Then I repared autorisations, permissions and I rebooted.
Then I plugged the thunderbolt card on the pcie3 slot of the MB.
At boot I got a message in the bios :
« PCI OUT OF RESSOURCES »
So let’s go to the thunderbolt page in the bios and change « memory reserved » from « maximum » to « medium ».
After that reboot, and Yosemite is ok but boot very slow.
I deleted AppleThunderboltNHI.kext and the slow boot problem is gone.
The 2 apple thunderbolt displays are recognize on osx (I didn’t needed windows).
Bluetooth works out of the box with the dongle.
What I didn’t test : imessage, handoff, continuity, wifi, airplay, icloud.
The Mac App Store works.
What is not working :
Sometimes the 2nd Apple thunderbolt display is not recognized at boot, I have to boot again for it works.
The usb, ethernet, firewire ports, micro, webcam of the Apple thunderbolt display don’t work, even with windows.
