macOS Sierra PB: Need testers for new AMD Radeon drivers!

Not open for further replies.
Yes, need to make SSDT for it to get implemented into DSDT. But just came home from work and need to relax first.

By all means relax and take lots of time! This is a forum, not the customer service & support counter at the local shop.

You are telling us some very good news, but we have made it this far, we can wait a bit longer as well.
 
Mork you're booting with PEG and AMD cards? Are you able to boot into 10.12.5 without black screen boot?

Have you tried booting with PEG and only the RX460? Or is it the RX480 that's the helper card in this case, instead of the IGX.

Yeah, it seems to be that the RX480 in PCIe slot#1 is the helper card in this scenario, cause it is getting no acceleration. Going to make some more tests today and will report the results here later this weekend.
 
@Mork_vom_Ork @jerryy2345 @Gigamaxx is Display Port working fine on 10.2.4 or Need a Patch?? this weekend are my free days and in some hour I will start to make the changes again on macOS 10.2.4 to get the XFX RX 480 running on macOS again.

I am curious which approach you are taking on this, since the EDID contains the audio connection information,
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Display_Identification_Data -- scroll down to the Audio Data Blocks section)
and
ATY,Berbice@1 —— looks to be the DP connector
IOService:/AppleACPIPlatformExpert/PCI0@0/AppleACPIPCI/PEG0@1/IOPP/PEGP@0/ATY,Berbice@1/AMDFramebufferVIB/display0/AppleDisplay

ATY,Berbice@2 — looks to be the HDMI connector
IOService:/AppleACPIPlatformExpert/PCI0@0/AppleACPIPCI/PEG0@1/IOPP/PEGP@0/ATY,Berbice@2/AMDFramebufferVIB/display0/AppleDisplay

under the IODisplayEDID Data section has the information.

Edit: The reason I am mentioning this is try this;

Plug in a DP monitor that has speakers as well as your av receiver into the HDMI connector, turn everything on and in terminal issue the command:

ioreg -l -d0 -w 0 -r -c AppleDisplay | grep IODisplayEDID

I get back the following:

"IODisplayEDID" = <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>

which has the audio information listed in it. The trick of course is to extract it and pass it to the appropriate Apple / AMD audio software. So, your approach has me very curious as to how you are doing things.

A best 100% Mac Compatible GraphicsCard is essential for hackintosh world, Specially for FCP X , Adobe Premier Video Editors.

At this point, Nvidia Pascal GPU s (GTX 1050/ 1060/ 1070/1080) are not working with macOS. No webdrivers from Nvidia. The Maxwell Cards (GTX750, 950, 960 970 980 etc) are not available in market right now.

AMD Polaris 10/11 series Cards RX460, 470, 480 are available now in market and support macOS Sierra with the help of any other GPU as primary GPU. Without helper GPU these cards boots in to Blackscreen or No output. But in real MacPro the card boot normally without any issues . Clover updates till now v4047 does not solves the issue.

According to me RX480 is a best performer Card with Video Editing applications like Finalcut Pro X, and Premiere Pro etc , with 8GB of VRAM at lowest price

We want to make RX480 fully working with hackintosh with out any helper cards
is it a Clover or FakeSMC issue?
Any Vbios patch or bios flash solves the issue?

According to @rhys216 we can boot to mac normally on hackintosh by modding vbios of RX480

@rhys216 any issues on windows after Changing deviceid on VBIOS?
