Edkroket Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Does anyone know if a E5-2680V3 will run with the same patch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinga11 Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 Does anyone know if a E5-2680V3 will run with the same patch? Yes, It should work with the patch but you may need change the pci and acpi drivers if you want run it with OS X yosemite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUIDE So if I understand well I need to use your kext and test if they work? I don't have the CPU yet but I want to buy it but I need to be sure it will run. It is not for me but for a customer of mine. I follow this tread because I have X99 with 5930K and running it steady and stable. Only issue is Audio still but I'll figure out that.

I don't think anyone has done a build with that CPU yet. stinga's solution will PROBABLY do the trick, but notbody can be sure until it has been attempted, and the kext will likely have to be replaced for every update. I'm not so sure it's wise to choose that configuration for your client unless you are willing to exchange the CPU and mobo if it doesn't work and replace the kexts every update (as well as the kernel obviously). It's also possible, however, that the 2680V3 doesn't need any kexts replaced, but this is required on the 5960x so it's pretty likely you will need to do the same on any CPU with 8 cores or more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I know there is no info yet anywhere. I tell my customers not to update OS with all my builds. I come by every once and while and do some maintenance for them. So that's no problem. The question is will it or not. I also like to be pioneer and try things out but this one is a bit expensive tough. Thanks for sharing anyway!

That's an option as well, even though it's slightly "outdated." Amazon DOES sell those CPUs, and they basically have a no questions asked return policy as long as you don't abuse it. I think Newegg has a similar policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know about the x79 as I have already build a few of them. But yeah a bit outdated..... And I have the X99 running well for now except for the time after I update Nvidia Webdrivers this night. It just won't boot instead it reboots. Doing a new install now. I'll talk to my customer and see if we can get it somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming you didn't set it up that way, but that's what it sounds like to me... x79 is not out dated. If you look at real world performance you will find that x79 is faster such as PCIe performance for example Shouldn't PCI-E performance be like exactly the same? What makes X79 faster? IMO the type of person that requires a 12-core Xeon is probably a good candidate for something tried-and-true like the X79. Something else to consider... Isn't turbo boost not working with X99? Usually that's the case when there's no power management. That could be a deal-breaker for a low clock speed 12-core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Dev Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 so is it enough to affect real world performance for something that doesn't take a ton of bw like gaming? About 5 to 10 % loss with Multi GPU performance. Single GPU is about 3% faster however. Intel is working on a way to address it but DDR4 has been able to make people not notice this until you sit down and do proper case studies.

NOTNlCE Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 This told the clover guys to RampageDev Hi there. Kernel needs to be loaded in first 4GB (under 0x100000000), but your memory is mapped in a way that there is no enough free memory under 4GB available. For example, memory is not mapped to large memory range 0x40000000-0xFED1C000, but all is mapped above 4GB (0x100000000-0x8BFFFFFFF). It does not look promsing to me. If you are able to compile Clover, try to release area BS_Code 0000000010000000-000000001000AFFF 000000000000000B 000000000000000F to get larger available space. Sometimes such small areas can be released without issues. You can do it by using OsxLowMemFix driver, but with few tricks: 1. edit OsxLowMemFix/OsxLowMemFixDrv.c and change line 48 from #define KERNEL_TOP_ADDRESS 0x10000000 // 256MB to #define KERNEL_TOP_ADDRESS 0x20000000 2. compile Clover and you'll get OsxLowMemFix.efi 3. rename it to something else, for example Test.efi - this is needed since Clover will not load both OsxLowMemFix and AptioFix 4. try to boot with Test.efi and AptioFix in drivers64UEFI But according to Rampagedev in the latest version of clover this error was fixed. Morning all, With some time off for the holidays, I've decided to have another go at this. From what I can tell, this fix is still necessary. I've created a fresh install of Yosemite from RampageDev's guide, using my Macbook and a spare Hack, along with the latest edition of Clover, yet I still get this error on my system. I'm able to boot my main drive via Chameleon, but it's on an MBR partition (as this was previously required for my board, no clue if it still is, if that shows you have out of the loop I am.) Is this what I should still be trying to implement to fix this error when I try to boot, or is there a better way? Current hardware is: GA-X99-UD4 with latest F11 BIOS i7-5820K 2 x GTX 660 16GB of Crucial DDR4 2133 MHz RAM As always, appreciate the help, and thanks in advance. -N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tested your board and it worked fine for me and many other users. Interesting. I'm still receiving the error, even with F11 BIOS and the latest version of Clover. Can't get it to do much at all. I'll try using the fix and see if that helps at all. Also interestingly, once I boot into Clover, I basically lose all control over the BIOS. Keyboard spams like Delete and F12 become unresponsive, and it just boots my Windows drive (#1 in boot priority). Have to reset the BIOS in order to do much of anything. Any ideas? Thanks.
