Gigabyte Z490 Vision D (Thunderbolt 3) + i5-10400 + AMD RX 580

Hey, quick question for vision g Monterey testers...

Is there support for i225-v network adapter?

I'm currently using boot arg dk.e1000=0 to enable the driver on Big Sur.

Thanks,
Juan

In Big Sur I don't have any problem with the i225-V. But it does not work in Monterey.

In Big Sur I don't use dk.e1000=0, but instead the EFI folder from the mini-guide uses this:

@CaseySJ First thanks for all you work and help.

I found a used z490 vision D (super happy) and I got a i9-10850K.

Everything seem to work pretty well except that I have a PCIe SATA card for some extra drives.

IS there a way for me to have the drive attached to that card show up at startup? I can only see the drive attached to the motherboard.
Do I have to add it somehow to the config.plist?

The drive show up I the Finder BTW and work well. Just not at boot.
They used to work at boot with my previous Mackintosh with Asus Z390F.

Or if it's the card do you know of one which will work?

Thanks,
Michele

Some follow-ups:
  • What is the make and model of every NVMe SSD in your system?
  • If the system had been running smoothly for some weeks, then it might be good to try this experiment:
    • Buy or find a spare 128GB or larger SATA SSD (these are very cheap).
    • Install the SATA SSD either internally or in external USB 3 enclosure.
    • Install Catalina from scratch on the SATA SSD -- using the same EFI folder you're using now.
    • When Catalina is fully installed:
      • Do not use Migration Assistant
      • Do not install any third-party software
      • Just check the system for stability:
        • Log in to iCloud
        • Use the Photos app
        • Use the Music app
        • Use the Safari browser
      • Leave the system running for long periods of time (i.e. 12 hours or overnight), but do not disable sleep
      • Is the system stable?
  • The only NVMe SSd is a 1TB Sabrent Rocket (Revision: RKT343.4) in slot 1
  • Attempted to install Catalina from scratch on a Samsung 850 EVO M.2 in slot 2 using same EFI
    • Installation repeatedly froze at 7 minutes
    • Pulled drive from system
    • Returned to Big Sur on Sabrent, freezes still occur both before and after sleep
  • Attempted to install Catalina on a Samsung 840 internal SATA drive using same EFI
    • Installation repeatedly froze at 4 minutes
    • Disconnected all USB peripherals except keyboard
    • Installation completed
    • Setup froze at "setting up iCloud" after entering credentials
    • Restart - Freeze after entering sign on credentials
    • Restart - Successfully signed in, initiated security update.
    • Update failed to complete (image of log attached)

Hello Michele,

Do you have a link to the make/model of your PCIe SATA card?

Here are some cards that are known to work with Mac. The links are located here.

Let's do this:
  • Compress and post the entire OpenCore EFI folder, but remove serial numbers from PlatformInfo section of config.plist.
  • List the make/model of the following components:
    • CPU cooler
    • Memory
    • PCIe cards
    • Thunderbolt devices attached to system, if any
    • USB devices plugged into internal USB headers
    • USB devices connected to external USB ports
    • Power supply
  • Then squeeze all power cables to make sure every cable is fully and properly seated
  • Also check all SATA power and SATA data cables
  • Have you connected the 8-pin CPU power connector?

CaseySJ, It's an IOCrest 4 Port SATA III PCI-e 2.0 x2 Card - SI-PEX40062

It has worked well for several years and could startup with my previous mod.
The drives mount in the Finder, I just do not see them at startup.

The chip set is a Marvell 88SE9235

Mine is actually identical to the one you posted here:


Looks identical and it has the same chipset.
 
@CaseySJ

Thank you so much. Fixed sleep issue. It was come from GC Titan Ridge.

We need to use both 5 pin and 3 pin into Motherboard. (instead of pin3 and pin 5 connection).

Then, it works beautifully.

For the record,

My setup:

CPU: i9 10850k
Z490 Vision G
Sapphire RX 580 Pulse
Fenvi T919
GC Titan Bridge
OS: Big Sur 11.6

Works now:
Sleep/Wake
Thunderbolt3 full support
Bluetooth/WIFI


Thank you so much!! really appreciate that.

That was a hard lesson to learn! I'll pin this to Post 1.
