with beta2, all my istat menu sensors are gone, except for for ssd and HD drive.

but in cpu, there is another Intel Graphics UHD 630 entry.

and beta 2 can correctly remember my dual monitor setup. that's a progress.

If anyone gets the Radeon VII up with 4 monitors, let me know

That’s how I am running mine on the beta build. But running 3x 1080p and 1x 1440p monitors.

Fantastic! I'm going to switch over from a GTX1080, running 3x1080p and 1x4K

Every lag / freeze that I got in beta 1 are gone in beta 2.
The VII is now stable AF.

Im using 4 monitors on my radeon 7. I don't know what is happening being slower on Bruce5K on other systems. mine is still less than 10 sec. Im using Gigabyte Motherboard and Gigabyte Radeon 7. I have done so many edits already since 10.14.5 beta 1 was released. Will try the Public Beta 2 as soon as I get off my field work tomorrow.

As for my BIOS settings. I just followed standard Gigabyte Motherboard settings suggested on the "installation guide"

Could you share your EFI and maybe a screenshot of your BIOS settings regarding iGPU/PCIe? That would be a an absolut help.

I just recieved my VII today, and my EFI is causing some me some headhaches in 10.4.4 (had to roll back to 10.4.3).

Im also using Gigabyte mobo (Gaming 7) - so our config should be very similar.

Please xantrium, share your EFI folder. My Radeon VII arrived two days ago and it is a bit slower than my Vega 56 in BruceX 5K, Cinebench and Geekbench, probably a config problem. Only in Heaven it is faster as show in the pictures, way faster by the way.

[Edit] Found xamtrium EFI on post #205, but it didn't solve my problem. Will wait for next beta versions.

I have the following question: can anyone adapt the script below to display correct results with radeon 7? he used the big contest for the vega 56/64 ... now it seems something changed, the sensors definitely ... but modified Kext appeared to identify the sensors of radeon 7 ... the last FakeSMC.kext accompanied by the last GPUSensors.kext ... so can someone change the script? I have the kextures and the incomplete result of radeon 7 ... vega I do not have anymore

ioreg -l |grep \"PerformanceStatistics\" | cut -d '{' -f 2 | tr '|' ',' | tr -d '}' | tr ',' '\n'|grep 'Temp\|Fan\|Utilization\|Clock'



less "Device Utilization %"=5 , the other values are zero ... so go to the job ...
