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

[gprime]

OK I will go ahead with Mojave next week.

And for TSC Sync, the only thing I know is how to put the correct number of core in VoodooTSCsync and this is what I've already done without any change.

Hope you help me to solve this issue but let me put Mojave first, thanks again !

Hi there !

Thanks for your help...

I'm trying to compare i7 8700 vs i9 7960X, I have the 2 at home.

In Da vinci resolve with the same project same settings, exporting a video take 8s on the i7 and 6min on the i9.

Annyoning !!! But why ? Do u have an idea ?

Regards

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], lga1151 have a full native support, i9 no, need a sync tsc

lga1151 have a IGPU for intel quick sync, i9 x299 no

[gprime]

K but can we do something to solve this king of "issue" ?

Cause I dont have an iGPU and on my i7 I dont use it at all (disable on bios).

And I have VoodooTscSync the last one wich dont need to be set up, so I dont know, what can I do ?

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], vega have it, native

[gprime]

So you mean I can delete VoodooTscSync kext right ????

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], in lga1151 yes

[gprime]

Ah OK, it's fine, I dont have it on my Z370 + i7 setup... Only on the i9 + X299

Hi MaLdOn,

Just to let you know :

I updated the bios of the X299 Gigabyte Motherboard.

Now the computer refuse to start : After Clover, I have as usual the verbose text then I have a black screen.

What do you think ?

Regards

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], if u update bios need patched again

and some new bios have a several problems with hackintoshs

[gprime]

I have test without your DSDT but same issue so I will go back to previous bios from 2017

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], the best, my new bios don't boot too, i'm stay in f10, run very very fine

[gprime]

Yes I will stay in F1 for now it's OK.

Just to let you know : I have all the USB ports NOT working at all.

Only the 2 first USB ports upside are working and only in USB2 mode.

Why ?

Best regards

[MaLd0n]

OK thanks again for your help

I've done this :

uia_exclude=HS04;HS06;HS09;HS10;HS11;HS12;HS13;HS14;SS01;SS02;SS03;SS04

And all my Rear USB ports are working. Mouse + Keyboard at the top. The 4 others ports are working, I tested with an USB2 stick and an USB3 external HDD.

I have no front USB on my case so I cant test more. What I've discovered :

[MaLd0n]

[ref]gprime[/ref], u need work with 15 ports limit, if u have more, u need kill

remember, 1 port = 2 ports( HS0x for USB 2 connected devices and SS0x for USB 3 connected devices)

[gprime]

Yeah thanks I know this : 1 USB3 port = 2 ports...

For now it's working, I will see tomorrow with USB-C external HDD...

The fact is that I can't find the address of the internal port because they are not connected (my case have no front port).

See u tomorrow I will let you know if the USB-C drive works.

Another things : Do you know the best settings for Vega 64 fan / temperature / clocks / voltage ?

Using VGTAB : I'm attempting to reduce noise and increase performance of a Gigabyte Vega64.
