Millennium X99 Guide update completed

Dear friends of X99,

with the intention the simply update my former X99 Desktop Guide, I ended up with a totally new iMac Pro X99 Build and Desktop Guide and even with a new thread title. No stone remained on the other and the old guide totally vanished.. :lol:

Now.. lot of stuff to be studied and implemented at your side ;)..

Have fun, good luck and enjoy :thumbup:,

Thanks for your awesome work!

I have a MSI X99A (+ 6850k) which is really complicated to run hackintosh with. But it is still running though. (10.13.5)

I cant boot with Aptiomemoryfix, need free2000 and i need to run with Fake CPUID 0x0306F2 (isnt booting with 0x040670) but changed SMBios to iMacPro and my CPU is running normally.

With the new TSCSync Kext i get a TSC KP at boot (TSC Sync Error)

OC isnt working - do you have a tip for me? I've read your several guides multiple times!

I tested every combination of Kernel Patches of yours and mine but its still not working. XCPM is running and SSDT is generated with -turbo 4200.

My drivers64uefi folder:

Thanks for your help and keep up the amazing work! :)

Kind of exhausted after writing up this new guide for nearly 24 hours...

Now I have to prepare myself for the Apple X-Mas event of today...

Thus, just shortly...

  • Did you really implement everything I came up with the last 24 hours just in 5 minutes?
  • Do you use my latest EFI-Folder distribution ?
  • Did you already change to iMac Pro?
  • Did you implement and adopt TSCAdjustRest.ket to your CPU?
  • Do you use Clover v4509?
  • ssdt.aml is just obsolete...
  • You still use OSXAptioFix2, which is definitely the worst of all solutions!
If I look to your /kexts/Other/ and /drivers64UEFI directories, nothing of the above seems to be the case...

I would suggest that you start working instead of making me work for nothing... ;):lol:

And I would just start from scratch in your case... :wave:

Good luck and enjoy,

KGP
 
Thanks for the anwser. I tested everything you posted last 96 hours :)

I think starting from scratch will be the best.

For what do we need RTC patch? Does it improve anything?

Have you tried with SMBIOS and FAKE CPUID 0x040674 (I believe that is Broadwell-E identifier). Also check out the new EFI Folder kgp uploaded in post #1700, it saved my current setup (which uses your exact same CPU btw)..

There is anyway a new EFI-Folder attached to the originating post for this thread (new guide)..
