Hi, I have your same motherboard but I can not even boot from USB with the EFI that you used in the group, it always comes back to the BIOS screen. I used the BIOS settings you posted. If you could give me some indications I would be grateful !!!

Guys.. we have official 10.13.2 available few hours now :headbang:
so.... what can I say ... CLICK Download and Go :p
I prepare new USB drive now, and next clean installation on random SSD for all basics tests etc :D

PS: @kgp I tried your new EFI, but with new installation (old but new 10.13 I had a lot of known memory errors... osxaptio etc....
Time to new clean install 10.13.2 we will see if I will find the same memory error like 1 hour ago :p

So... after clean install 10.13.2
Vega performance is the same like before...
CPU with little OC (4,7):
before 10.13-13.1(Geekbench multi score)::: 40.700-41000 points
then 10.13.2 beta 4 and beta 6::: 37.900-38.100 points
and official 10.13.2::: almost or.. something like -> 40.066 points
after 20 min of tests nothing else found ... :p

In few words:
I think/feel my 1,5k points of multicore Geekbench score came back .. but it's still not the same performance like 10.13-10.13.1 ... I hope next version will be better....
Vega drivers... - I don't see/feel any difference with actual drivers with or without whatevergreen kext...
the rest of details... in my opinion at this moment... I can't see any other differences.

PS:
* 10.13.2 installation was 30 % longer for me, than before :mrgreen:
* I had osxaptio problem often with new kgp EFI folder from December... (10.13 - 10.13.2)
* anybody can tell me wthell is -> "does printf works??"
I have this message almost always when I try to boot new 10.13.2 (I never saw this message before)
so I have memory error osxaptio bla-bla etc or almost always "does printf works??" and I have to reset...
and boot from old 10.13.2 beta 6 then choose new system(ssd) and I can boot... :banghead:

PS2: Have a nice day! :D

OSX is not able to drive the volume control of a digital source like HDMI/DP!

You need 3-rd party software tools like Audio Hijack or Soundflower....

Danke KGP... used Soundflower and now volume control works!

hi kpa,my computer reset itself all time when i instead the MAC OS to creat the user information.can you help me?thank you so much

I'm sorry if I'm wrong but ...
if you don't have X299 platform, or simply you can't even write correctly "kgp" - our Master nickname.... it is very very very bad!
So you have to change PC, learn English a little bit more or drink after visit on this forum.

I know my English is very low/bad/etc... but yours is even worst or you drink too much, so you have to try translate better or write correct.... it's only one way to help you, if not.... we can't even understand what you want to say... /explain etc...

So... go to search case and try to find what you need or create new thread if you can't find something,
but please don't write here if you don't have X299 motherboard...
and if you have one i7 to i9 on X299 - "sorry again", but you have to try translate better and write more details about your problem... if not, we will never be able to help you...

My questions were very simple. None of your pictures answered them.

Update your signature so we know what system you have.
