Hello everyone,
I am currently running a 6700k and MSI R9 390 in El Capitan using the guide in
this thread.
I should note that using this guide only I was only able to get HDMI port from the graphics card to work at 30 hertz (at 4k), but I am completely fine with this.
There is another small issue I was hoping the members here might be able to help me with:
I am working out of the HDMI port on my card to the 4k monitor, thus the sleep / wake function does not work.
That being said, I was able to get sleep / wake to work using the HDMI port from my motherboard only using the intel 530 graphics in the mobo settings. However, when I did this I wasn't able to run at 4k resolution (only 1080p at 60 hertz worked, I much prefer 4k at 40 hertz). Furthermore, Final Cut Pro X refused to open when I was running out of the motherboard HDMI. Not sure what the issue was here—it kept trying to open and then crashed immediately.
Questions:
1. Does running off the IGFX on the 6700k completely disable / override any AMD graphics card? In other words, can I run only the display through the 6700k, and send the power from the graphics card to program such as FCPX, or will running the display off of the 6700k essentially shut down all graphic card functionality?
2. If it is possible to run the monitor off of the 6700k and send the power from the graphics card to the more intensive tasks, does anyone know what the best settings in the graphics section of clover would be? Inject ATI? Inject Intel?
3. Assuming that two above points are possible, does anyone know why the 4k option didn't show up in the display preferences tab?
Thank you all very much for your time!
