Have you tested AFGlowPowerstate = true in clover boot menu?

Hey, just tried and didn't work.

Going to use Bluetooth (monitor supports it) until Apple fixes this.

hi, are there any scripts to extract Radeon 7 framebuffer? can the oldest be used?

has anyone had a breakthrough with the graphics acceleration for amd rx580 card, i've been at it for 3 days now and cant get the card to work at the normal 1300 frequency. anything i tried and it still runs at 300mhz, im trying to capture some footage with OBS and get low fps, might be related to gpu frequency.

Sup guys! I have a HIS R9 280X iPower IceQ X² Turbo Boost Clock 3GB GDDR5 PCI-E DLDVI-I/HDMI/2xMini DP and after Mojave installation + whatgreen its working great BUT the system shows it as a Radeon HD7970.

Is there anyway that I can fix it?
Is it cosmetic or its really changes the performance?

Thx anyway.

Which brand? RX580 works OOB without any patches needed. Except WhateverGreen+Lilu if you want to use all the DisplayPorts/HDMI and have the addition of Shiki (Which is now included in WG).

Which card and OS did you use that got 1300 frequency?

Is your iGPU enabled in bios?

Is it showing 300mhz in Geekbench and Luxmark? Test them in windows and see if it’s correct. Those two benchmarks have incorrect frequency readings. 300x4 = 1200mhz.

It is basically the same card. Which version of MacOS are you using?

There is a way to fix the name you will need kext wizard and iHex. But you will have to fix it after updates that replace the 7000controllerkext.

the card in question is Gigabyte AORUS RX580 8GB, on macOS Mojave 10.14.4 i get 300mhz in luxmark and while trying to encode with OBS and get horrible fps. i installed high sierra 10.13.6 and without any configuration to the gpu it worked straight OOB. in Mojave while having the iGPU enabled i cant open FCPX nor can i encode with obs, they both crash on startup. luxmark shows the correct frequency in High Sierra 1365MHz with iGPU disabled RadeonDeInit of and InjectATI off, also no framebuffer selected, all 4 monitors are working. On mojave only 3 out of 4 monitors work without radeondeinit, also on mojave i seem to have some problems with some usb ports, the 3.0 ones work and only 2 out of 4 usb2.0 work.

The luxmark thing is a bug/change in some macOS API. It's not a reliable way to determine clock speed in Mojave. My vega 56 shows 800Mhz but is actually running at in the high 1500Mhz range. It's been a long time since I ran a Polaris card, so someone else may need to chime in on how to get reliable clock/temp/fan metering. (Does RadeonSensors FakeSMC plugin work?)

The OBS thing is probably some other issue. I suspect your card is actually running higher than 300Mhz but there are other things you need to sort out stability wise.
