  • MacPro5,1 - Macht ein Hardware Upgrade noch Sinn in 2025?

    Hi Nio82 i did this your step a year ago

    I changed original CPU with dual cpu (two Xeon x5680), 96 Gb DDR and also a 6600 (with MAC EFI) and i used it a bit with OSX Monterey

    I had also an USB 3 PCIE, a Samsung NVME and a Broadcom PCIE Wifi

    Some time ago i changed 6600 gpu with a RX 580 8gb (no MAC Efi in it) and i installed Ventura OS


    Both OS work well but i cant advice to invest so much on it...

    i am selling it and i can say it wasnt for me a good deal (but very happy to study it and solve problems to have it working


    With rx 580 i have also installed Sequoia, i think best OS for it are Ventura (or Monterey)

    Atalantia on my X870e hero motherboard i have two ethernet card (realtek 5gbit and intel 2.5 Gbit)

    realtek does not work, intel works with AppleIGC.kext with zero problem


    in my "old" Asus Proart (x870e) i had two ethernet (Aquantia 10Gbit and intel 2.5 Gbit) both worked well (with patches and kexts)

    Generally in new motherboard wifi is not working, in my system i use Broadcom wifi changing internal wireless on board with some patience

    Till Ventura OS Broadcom work pretty well out of the box

    With sonoma and greater OS you have to use OCLP (opencore legagy patcher) and to accept some security limitations

  • Software Ryzen Kompatibilität

    I have had intel in dual xeon 2696 v4 version and ryzen threadripper

    I like to try

    For my interests i can use wirh zero problem both

    I do not know if my 9950x is cheaper than best intwl cpu

    But as i said above i like to try

    My words in this thread was said to correct an error about amd cpu but i have zero problem to use an intel in the future ( or an arm cpu)

    Zitat von Atalantia

    This program (VUE) renders only with CPU. The GPU is only involved in the previews in the canvas and uses OpenGL.

    this is correct and it is a pity because gpu render could be faster in my case ;)

    but OpenCl/OpenGl assertion wasnt correct (if i have understood well about AMD CPU)

    AMD had and has a problem in OSX with some 32 bit code (i am not expert in this and forgive me for poor explanation) but it works in Opengl/CL like intel i think (amd emulate some intel code with AMD kernel patches to boot in OSX properly)

    this is the only problem you could have with amd (a more complex config.plist to rule)

    Then some app coul have problems with IntelMKL library, but this aspect is solvable with a script (AMDFriend)


    I think in a not far away future Mx arm would be the only choice to use OSX. today some optons are still opens

    AMD CPU is one of these choices :)


    EDIT

    I have translated chris video

    i think he speaks about a patch (FIX pat) in the past this patch produced very bad framerate in OpenGL/Cl games

    this problem was solved with another kind of the same patches by Shaneee

    so now performances is adeguate also when cpu must use opengl/cl stuff (maybe a bit slower than a similar powerful Intel CPU (but not so much)

    fabiosun Would you please render the Sechellen example with E-on Vue on your computer with the rx6950xt? I'd be quite curious about the outcome compared to Apple Silicon.

    i tried but it asks to download some others files from sa link, i don t know what i have to download


    edit in other real test life i did with my dual gpu system i have a loss only with latest 5090 GTX board (davinci, blender, Premiere pro) so i think for a couple of year would be possible to stau on OSX (hack) and have big jpy to use it :)


    is it good?

    I have downloaded VUE Extra



    added a quicktime screengrab for the rendering

    Zitat von griven

    fabiosun he uses a quite special software (eon VUE https://www.bentley.com/software/e-on-software-downloads/) which is used for photorealistc modeling/rendering of Landscapes and Plants and obvioulsy relies on OpenCL/GL...

    thank you griven
    I am not familiar with it but it seems to work well, i don't kown if it uses both my gpus, but it renders well



    I have no experience with this software but if user needs some test i can follow his instructions :)

  • Hackintosh AMD Setup

    Zitat von final1321

    I need to change something or can i use it directly with a reboot from my system ?

    it is based on your previous config.plist with some correction i did

    you could try as it is ;)

    then if system does a step forward we can do further enhancement

    Remembre , your GPU is not uspported in the usual way..and when your system boots you have to use NootRX kext

  • Hackintosh AMD Setup

    Sequoia OSX?

    your system doesnt need of DevirtualizeMMIO booter quirk

    if you are trying to install system older than sequoia you have to modify also some Core count patches


    NootRx kext is good for your GPU but maybe you have to modify also your SMBios to imacPro 1.1

    i would also to try to disable NOOTRX kext during first installation steps and use SSDT-Plug for your cpu/system

    EDIT

    Disable parallel and serial port from your motherboard bios
