biborn Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Hello, I am having problems with my graphics card (AMD Radeon R9 270). It is mainly the problem with the card performance. I am getting a very undesirable performance. However, QE/CI works properly and all graphical animations work out of the box. The main problem is with the performance i got in Cinebench R15. i only get 29fps is OS X whereas in Windows i get more than 70fps without any hassle. I understand that OS X have problems with OpenGL but I've tested my friend's card (AMD Radeon 7870) and that card performs well (68fps OpenGL Cinebench R15 score). Here is my specs: Processor: AMD FX-8320 @ 3.5GHz Motherboard: Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 16GB DDR3 1600MHz GPU: Asus Radeon R9 270 DCUII OC 2GB GDDR5 256bit I made some researches and tried to patch DSDT but that doesn't work. I might did it wrongly but how can i know. Since I am using AMD platform there's no way that I can use Clover Injection method (AFAIK). Now, I'm using chameleon as a bootloader. I also tried some of patch like this: http://www.hackintoshosx.com/files/file/4040-amd-radeon-hd-7xxx-r9-series-graphics-drivers-for-mavericks-109x/ and this: http://www.hackintoshosx.com/files/file/3711-amd-radeon-r9-270-series/ and this: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/303186-how-to-modification-of-amd-fb-clover-injection/?do=findComment&comment=2093026 and this: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/294498-amd-r9-270-problem/ and many more that i can barely recall. I have also edited the S/L/E/AMD7000Controller.kext and S/L/E/AMDX4000.kext and put in my device ID (0x68111002) but that also don't work. Here are the pastebin links to the info.plist files for your reference if I might missed anything: AMD7000Controller.kext: http://pastebin.com/e2Uh3KHm AMDRadeonX4000.kext: http://pastebin.com/ivKP88mq Here are the terminal result of my commands: lspci -nnvd 0x1002: | grep -B2 Subsystem : http://pastebin.com/HaaLFCgi sudo kextstat | grep AMD: http://pastebin.com/jiKG7T6p ioreg | grep ATY: http://pastebin.com/vyep36Aw I also attached some screenshots for your reference. P/S: I am using Niresh 10.9.0 and upgraded to 10.9.5 using Combo Update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biborn Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/294315-radeon-r9-270x-framebuffer-issue/ My system AMD recognizes perfectly R9 270x use the system vlada which is fine in 10.9.5 Mavericks and see how it is recognized perfectly I believe if I have the exact same card, life would be so much easier. But mine is not 270X. It's 270 without the X. I've tried Vlada's work too but no luck. I've been tinkering with this for about a month before I decided to post it in here.

May be we try to start your system with Clover? AFAIK Clover works with AMD CPU. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read in so many sources that Clover is not suitable for AMD CPU. But having heard you said that, can you point me to any thread that will assist me to achieve that?
