Your card should be working okay.

Aah i will work with this or try some different things later.
Thanks any way for your support as always :thumbup:

XFX version only shows ATI Radeon 5000. Sapphire version shows ATI Radeon 5450 Series 2048MB. Haven't tested any other version such as ASUS, Gigabyte etc.

So after seeing a lot of people having trouble enabling ATI Radeon HD 5450 in OS X i decided to make a guide. There are couple of ways of doing this. You can inject via a DSDT or a Fake ID in Clover. You can also edit AMD RadeonX3000.kext & AMD5000Controller.kext but problem with editing and adding Device ID to kexts are when you update you will loose full functionality no QE/CI or OpenCL. So i recommend either injecting via a DSDT or adding Fake ID to Clover by doing this method on every update your graphics will be still working. Please note that the XFX ATI Radeon 5450 has problems and gets shown as a ATI Radeon 5470 Series. Tested Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 5450 1024MB working gets seen as ATI Radeon HD 5450 Series.
This Guide works from 10.6.6 straight to 10.11.
So whats working?
HDMI.
DVI.
Sleep also works.
Two monitors works using DVI & HDMI.
QE/CI.
OpenGL.
Clover Graphics injection. i.e (inject ATI true)

Any known problem?
No known problems at this time.
Haven't tried VGA don't have no VGA Monitor.
Any problems please comment below.

The ATI Radeon 5450 uses Frame Buffer Eulemur. The Fake ID you need to inject is 68E01002. You can put this in Clover Configurator/Devices section under FakeID/ ATI. Doing it this way is much easier.


You may decide to inject via a DSDT so adding the FakeID to a DSDT you need to either edit under PEG0, PEGP, or P0P1.

For Chameleon Users it is easier to inject via a DSDT. Chameleon hasn't got the ability to inject FakeID like Clover does.

Screenshots are taken from a Sapphire ATI Radeon 5450.

XFX ATI Radeon 5450 Screenshots. As seen in the Screenshots with the XFX ATI Radeon 5450 its being shown as a ATI 5470 Series.If your not sure that the ATI Radeon 5450 card is working properly check in ioreg to see if the Frame Buffer is working. You can download ioreg from here [Guide] How to Make a Copy of IOReg And check to see if ATY is showing Frame Buffer.

Theres two methods in this guide. (Injecting via a DSDT) & Using a FakeID with Clover. Need more information which version of OS X are you using what hardware do you have? Which Bootloader are you using?
