Hi Mald0n,

 

Finally I got some settings in Clover that work without DSDT, only with SSDT. This is with a Z840 - Bios 2.31 Rev. A and Sierra 10.12.3. 2 x Xeon E5-2623 V4 (Broadwell), 32GB RAM with for the moment, 2x16GB RAM Sticks (I know it needs 4 DIMMS per processor to work optimal) Thunderbolt Card, Intel X520 NIC Card and Nvidia TITAN 6GB.

Hi, Jordith!

Have you tried to update to Mojave or Catalina?

I have bought a z840 with BIOS v2.50.

After some trial and error, I get it to work in Mojave, but it restarts randomly.

I'm using iMacPro 1,1 as SMBIOS because all my tests with MacPro 6,1 were a mess...

Can you help me?

Thanks in advance!

May I please revive this topic? Thank you. 
Got an asus z10pa-d8 (c612) and two E5-2670v4. 
Working excellent with a set of x99 patches for Monterey fed to latest OC debug bundle. 
 

Ventura latest version here, works like a charm. Everything - but sleep. Possibly due to the prob that even Intel says that their server chips don’t have C3 power state?

 

I googled some topic on modding Chinese bioses and replace (?) intel’s microcode so a xeon can sleep correctly (???) Unfortunately I’m not that good in Chinese to be sure. 
 

However, xeon-based iMacs do sleep correctly. I suppose that some software patches (ssdt/dsdt) could be applied at boot time that enable the S3? Or at least S4 which is at last a solution too. 
 

Please advise. If I’m digging in the right way, I will share the result.
