High Sierra (on X299 + i9 7960x) is SLOW

[gprime]

Hi there,

I'm a new guy in the World of Video editing and I'm using Da Vinci Resolve and sometimes FCPX.

I have a fresh installed Hackintosh on High Sierra 10.13.6 with :

-GA-X299-Designare EX

-i9 7960x

-128GB Ram

-2x1TB NVME Samsung SSD

-2x1080Ti 11GB

When I do Benchmark like Geekbench, all the CPU cores reach 100%.

That's not the case in Da Vinci Resolve where the cores cant reach more than 65% when I render.

And it's even less poor than in FCPX where the cores are at max 35%.

Where I'm Wrong ? I've read some topics on Reddit where people are experiencing the same issue in Resolve...

I understand the thing that for FCPX it's normal, as I not running AMD material... But for Resolve, what's the trick ?

I even get better result with my previous machine based on Z370+i7 8700+64GB Ram !!! That's insane...

Thanks for the help !

Best regards,

GP

[ref]gprime[/ref], use this clover folder, just replace full clover folder and use last clover bootloader

CLOVER.zip

reboot and extract new SEND_ME

[gprime]

OK will do and let you know... Thanks again !

Do I need to check Nvda_drv=1 and NvidiaWeb ? Cause I have a 1080Ti and no integrated graphic on board (X299 Designare EX).

[MaLd0n]

i think weg kext solve it, but ifvideo dont work, use NvidiaWeb in system parameters

[gprime]

OK... I need at least NCPI=0X200 because it wont boot without that

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], k

[gprime]

OK, no boot with your EFI... Look :

 

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], strange

[gprime]

Same problem Buddy...

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], vodootscsync and npci=0x200 is done?

[gprime]

Yes I've checked the tick in Clover Configurator for NPCI=0X2000 and I've set the VoodoTSCSync for my 16 cores...

(32 threads - 1 = 31)

Still the same message as before.

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], try without my DSDT

[gprime]

K but how to proceed ?

Dont know how to remove the DSDT... Sorry :-/

[MaLd0n]

[gprime]

Just to let you know, I removed the 1080Ti and put a Vega 64 to simplify the setup.

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], Try

DSDT.aml.zip

new send_me after reboot

[gprime]

K will try ASAP, thanks !!!

[gprime]

Same issue as before, same message about "rendezvouing"...

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], i read in insanelymac apple broke it in 10.14.1+

u use mojave?

[gprime]

No no, I'm using High Sierra 10.13.6, the latest one.

Do you want me to install Mojave ?

Please let me know, unfortunatelly for now, the i9 7960x CPU is still slow.

My i7 8700 is better with the same configuration, so there must be an issue somewhere with this i9...

I will take the machine at home next week and we will see.

[ref]gprime[/ref], mojave is better

the best is used ever full native support like 8700k, 9900k

x299 is amazing, but need a tscsync and other, not a full native support if we need sync tsc
