Hi Pastrychef,

Just to be sure; I use my own custom SSDT_USB.aml and SSDT-EC-USBX.aml, on top of / and keeping the default SSDT-DMAR.aml, SSDT-PLUG.aml and SSDT-EC.aml files provided by OpenCore ?
(sorry it's been a while)

Kind regards

Just use your own SSDT_USB.aml. Leave everything else intact.

Anybody else found that sleep isn't working anymore as it should be? If my system enters sleep (from a fresh reboot) I looks ok. System is entering sleep but after a 15 min or so it wakes again. When I don't touch my system it enters sleep again and then it stays a little shorter in sleep let say 10 min. After a while it toggles between sleep and wake (because nobody is logging in). Any ideas? I think something is changed in Ventura causing this. I tried different EFI backups from recent but nog change to them. Powernap is disabled.

After a while this issue came back. I thought it was an USB device as suggested by Pastrychef. The solution was quite simple. It was one of my monitors (the one with an active USB hub) which caused this issue. The input source had "Auto Select" active. Disable this option, enforcing only to use Display Port solved the issue.

OpenCore EFI updated to 0.8.7.
AppleALC and WhateverGreen also updated to latest release versions.

On the Asus Z370-G, is it normal that one of the Red USB Ports in the back is not full speed? @pastrychef was there something done in port mapping that can cause that? Is it expected?

Using a NVMe in a external USB-C enclosure (USB 3.1 Gen 2 I think), I get an abysmal difference between the two ports.

Different cables also give different results, so I am just trying to understand... Thanks.

No. Both ports should work in full speed.

Dang, I did a clean install and everything. Then maybe it's the enclosure quality or something.
Thanks for the reply tho, appreciate you.

Cabling could be bad.

Or mapping could be off.

If you focus on one port (the bad one) what's the max speed you get, using a known good cable? 40MB/s? If so, it's only doing USB2. Check your port mapping and confirm that physical port has both a USB2 and a USB3 resource assigned to it.

Post your Hackintool USB tab, with something plugged into it using USB3.

The mapping is from Pastrychef.
I have 2 cables, both work on my MacBook air M1, and thru a hub, I get around 300 mb/s in both.
On my hack 1 of the cables gives me 40 mb/s on both the red ports and another gives me 700-900mb/s on the good port and 40mb/s on the bad one. -- No idea what to make of these results, seem all over the place. I'm new to using nvme's on external enclosures.

Hackintool:

Not a big deal since at least one port works, but I'm having other issues and was wondering if it could be related.
