Ok...
In any case, I was unable to activate the NVME on 10.12
I will try to install 10.13 on it to give you feedback and support your work!

In any case I can not work on 10.13 because there is still no support for the graphics card ...

And for me it's important that my work is video editing

But I'll update your manual and wait for an update of nvdia

thank you for the quick reply!

Perfect! Once you have 10.13 fully operational on your EVO 950 PRO, it will be a minor step to install the Web Drivers once they are released. I will provide updates along all betas until the final release.

Many thanks for your support!

Some more questions:

1.) Broadwell-E xcpm_boostrap changed to Find:8d43c483 f822 and Replace: 8d43c383 f822 ??
2.) Ivy-Bridge xcpm_boostrap changed to Find: 8d43c483 f822 and Replace: 8d43c283 f822 ??
3.) xcpm_cpuid_set_info remained them same for Broadwell-E, Haswell-E and Ivy-Bridge?

Broadwell-E: Find: 0fb6c483 c0e983f8 47 Replace: 0fb6c483 c0e183f8 47
Haswell-E: Find: 0fb6c483 c0e983f8 47 Replace: 0fb6c483 c0e683f8 47
Ivy-Bridge: Find: 0fb6c483 c0e983f8 47 Replace: 0fb6c483 c0e583f8 47
​

It would be great if you could answer asap!

Many thanks in advance!

KGP,

First off, again, thank you for your help!!

Ivy-bridge boostrap looks correct, not sure on Broadwell-e, didn't see anything on that. I didn't change anything nor did I see any updated cpuid_set_info.

Here's something interesting, I'm gonna guess that HWmonitor is never always correct?

Check my attached photo...Haha.

Mine works fine!

Are you sure you are running the right HWmonitor/HWSensor version? It can't be the one I attached in my guide. Also check if you use the proper FakeSMC.kext!!

Cheers,

KGP

The Ivy-Bridge xcpm-bootstrap entry under 10.12.6 was already wrong. It should properly read:

Find: 8d43c483 f822
Replace: 8d43c683 f822

What about Broadwell-E?? Does anybody has the correct xcpm-bootstrap entry for 10.12.6???

Update of my 10.12 macOS Sierra Desktop Guide
​

• New 10.12.6 xcpm-bootstrap KernelToPatch entries added for all supported processors:
  
  Broadwell-E: Find: 8d43c483 f822 Replace: 8d43c383 f822
  
  Haswell-E: Find: 8d43c483 f822 Replace: 8d43c183 f822
  
  Ivy-Brdige-E: Find: 8d43c483 f822 Replace: 8d43c283 f822
  
  Ivy-Bridge: Find: 8d43c483 f822 Replace: 8d43c683 f822

xcpm-bootstrap is now also working for Broadwell-E! For details see the originating post of this thread..



Cheers and enjoy!

Find: 8d43c483 f822
Replace: 8d43c183 f822

Sorry the correct Broadwell-E xcpm_bootstrap entry is:

Find: 8d43c483 f822
Replace: 8d43c383 f822

Sorry the correct Broadwell-E xcpm_bootstrap entry is:

Find: 8d43c483 f822
Replace: 8d43c383 f822

Well that's kinda odd Lol on my end it seems to work fine for me. I'll give this one a try though and see if i experience anything different.

 

[IDGAF]

Ok looks like i had mixed up my Broadwell-E [config.plist] for some reason with Haswell-E patches for XCPM Lol.
Everything still seems to be working flawless.

Hey KGP,
Just wanted to double check to see if there was a typo or if I missed something. Under the XCPM step 7, it says to copy the SSDT.aml file but my file that was generated was DSDT.aml. Did something change or did I miss something?
