If it helps, I too am on Virgin Media in London and have had no problems accessing this site. I've been on it daily for the past 5 weeks (I.E. since Lockdown) as I've used this time to finally upgrade my Hackintosh.

If you type traceroute www.tonymacx86.com in Terminal, do you see 86.13.116.170 somewhere along the route?

With WE on, DP works properly with a little drop in performance - about 6000 points (65000 vs 71000)

Not that I can see. Don't mind sharing my Terminal output with you via PM if you want?

EDIT: It's worth noting that I use Google's DNS servers, as Virgin Media DNS servers are terrible and have caused me a lot of pain in the last few years. Not sure if that makes a difference. Google DNS is setup on the Mac as I think the Virign Media routers no longer allow you to change the DNS.

The SoftPowerPlay table for Radeon VII is already present inside the SSDT located in the Radeon Performance Boost guide.

I’m seeing a huge gain in GB4 scores using this kext and ssdt.

Wow. GB5 score before RadeonBoost = 55128, after = 79567. Zoom. BTW, Using both RadeonBoost and Whatevergreen to keep dual monitor support.

My system can't recognize these two devices, can you help me see how to solve it?

No need to worry about devices 0x3EC2 and 0x1911. Your screenshots are okay -- no problem.

@Casey have you gone back to using the SSDT?

I'm itching to try the kext however just weary of breaking something. And don't mind waiting till things settle down a bit.

Hey all.

Taking a poll - how many of you are successfully using Catalina on the Designare with a >/= 4K monitor on any dedicated graphics card without any system freezing or crashing? As in, you’ve never had any issues at all.

I used it, benched higher. Made no difference in any video rendering app I tried though (Fcpx, resolve).
