So, kgp, I took a shot at looking at your SDDT-HDMI file with macIASL, and I think there might be an issue....I downloaded it, double-clicked and got this....here's a screenshot.....

BUT, on a separate note - I resolved my problem with my LG monitor not showing up in Sound listings (and therefore I couldn't use it). I used Toleda's script at: audio_hdmi_amd-nvidia-master, opened his SSDT-HDMI-NVIDIA-BR3A.aml, did a search and replace for BR3A to BR2C, and it worked. I could have sworn I did this in the past, but oh well....works now. If a copy of my compiled SSDT-HDMI-BR2C-5.aml file is useful, I'll be happy to provide it.

As always, you guys deserve so much praise and thanks (!!!) for all you do for this community! All the best!

Look at this! PCIe Lane Width x2 instead of x16!!! And you are surprised that you have graphics acceleration issues???

You obviously cannot use your graphics card in the second large PCIe slot, which only supports 2 PCIe lanes instead of the 16 required by your graphics card! :rolleyes:o_O

Obviously my ssdt-hdmi.aml script only works with the ASUS X99-A II and maybe also with the ASUS X99 Deluxe II, but the Nvidia Graphics card MUST be in PCIe Slot 0!!! Otherwise you have to modify the ssdt-hdmi.aml... I will now implement also all other PCI devises of my build in a stepwise approach...

HDMI audio is also part of NvidiaGraphicsFixup 1.20 so you may not need an SSDT.

Yup or you do not need NvidiaGraphicsFixup 1.20 ;) At least me I don't use it....
