aankun.ganteng Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Upgrading my build from mavericks --> http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/300293-report-asus-z97i-plus-gtx-770-mavericks-1094/ With the following components : Asus Z97i-Plus Motherboard Intel Core i5-4690 Asus GTX 770 DirectCU II Corsair 8GB RAM Install configuration : Using Apple Store installer Clover bootloader (v2k r3050) check the EFI.zip file below VoodooHDA (VoodooHDA_V286_MAV.pkg found in on sourceforge) MacPro 5,1 smbios what works : The Wi-Fi card + Bluetooth + Ethernet GTX 770 ( disable the intelHD on the bios ) Sound ( using VoodooHDA, or patch AppleHDA with toleda's script fro ALC892 + intel series9 patch ) Native Power Management, generate using clover Sleep Bugs and notes : After wake from sleep, the sound stop working. Reloading the sound kext works most of the time ---> check this : http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/303424-report-asus-z97i-plus-gtx-770-yosemite-1010/?do=findComment&comment=2095842 The AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext and IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext is edited acoording to my need. The AGPM is for Direct CUII GTX770 and the IOPlatformPluginFamily is edited for the i5-4690 + MacPro smbios. So might not work on your system. See update details below. I use patched AppleHDA for the sound. Still have the same sleep bug. I think it's better than voodoo Update 27 Dec 2014 : replace OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi with OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi to avoid boot error when using nvidia web driver and/or cuda driver (cuda currently worked with the default driver but not with nvidia web driver) update with the latest FakeSMC.kext remove EmuVariableUefi-64.efi and use "install RC scripts on target volume" when installing/upgrade clover so the bootloader using the native NVRAM Update 9 February 2015 : Update to 10.10.2 Re-patch AppleHDA kext Change SMBIOS to MacPro6,1, nothing wrong with MacPro5,1 Generate new SSDT using Piker-Alpha's script from here --> https://github.com/Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh. I use 3 SSDT files (SSDT.aml, SSDT-1.aml and SSDT-2.aml) Revert back to the original AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext Revert back to the original IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext an then run Piker-Alpha's script from here --> https://github.com/Piker-Alpha/freqVectorsEdit.sh Update 14 March 2015 Turn out the MacPro6,1 make my sleep not working, so back to MacPro5,1 Update the nVidia web driver to 343,02.02f02, I don't remember updating my CUDA Drive but my cuda driver version is 6.5.46 EFI-CLOVERr3079-14-March-2015.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pavo Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 make sure to update the vbios on the GTX 770 to the latest one, it will run WAY better. http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/156501/asus-gtx770-2048-131218.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinth Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 I have very similar setup to yours - same mobo, same CPU, similar GFX, unfortunately i found couple of issues. FixHDA/Fix Sound DSDT in Clover causes ACPI-related kernel panic, not only on your config.plist, but on any configuration with Z97I-Plus mobo. Can someone advise about this? Computer goes to sleep automatically after few minutes, but there is no option to configure that behaviour in system settings, as computer is identified as iMac not laptop. Is that normal? Also I've needed to move kexts from 10.10 folder to Other folder to make Clover autoload them - that doesn't work when they are placed in 10.10 folder.

First for the "FixHDA/Fix Sound DSDT in Clover" problem. You might want to check/compare my config with your config. When I start installing OSX on this mobo, I found out that using unnecesarry DSDT fix will cause errors. "computer is identified as iMac not laptop" --> chek if on your config file you put an SMBIOS info, if not clover will generate it for you. I use MacPro as the smbios information. "Also I've needed to move kexts from 10.10 folder to Other folder to make Clover autoload them - that doesn't work when they are placed in 10.10 folder." --> some kext will not load unless you put "kext-dev-mode=1" on the boot flag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xouspring Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Hey thanks for the report. I have the same motherboard with i5 4690S except i have the stock HD4600 until the GTX960 comes out. I was wondering how many sates you have with your config speedstep wise? Turbo boost is working and so does idling speed but i think i'm missing steps in between. Checking DPCI manager i have : 02/01/2015 16:01:28, P States: 8, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39 Also you say : "The AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext and IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext is edited acoording to my need" How do you do that? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! I hope I can explain this well AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext When you open Info.plist on AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext you will see a list of mac type such as MacPro, Macbook etc. In this case I use MacPro5,1. So I need to put my GPU Vendor and device ID inside the MacPro5,1 list. So for example my GPU is Vendor10deDevice1184 (GTX 770 ASUS DirectCU II) at the screenshot you can see my vendor and device ID, below that is a set of instruction that i copy from Vendor10deDevice119e. 10de119e is GeForce GTX 780M Mac Edition. That is the closest GPU architecture that match my GPU. IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext Inside the PlugIns folder you will find X86PlatformPlugin.kext. Inside the resources folder you will see some plist files. That plist files represent Mac board id. Since I use MacPro SMBIOS and board id, which not available on that folder. I copy one of the plist that have the closest match on processor type. In my case is the iMac15,1 with Haswell processor. Copy the plist and rename it with your current board id on your SMBIOS information. When using DPCI Manager to check p-states, I also got missing states. Try use Piker's AppleCPUPowerManagementInfo.kext (http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/298027-guide-aio-guides-for-hackintosh/?p=2020580). I think DPCI Manager only list the p-state that used at the moment. Some p-state might be change to fast so DPCI Manager can’t capture all of them. I hope this can help good luck my-kext.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebus Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Anybody tried this mobo with i3-4350T Also does WoL (wake on lan) works (from sleep ofcourse, as I believe Mac can not do it from Power Off) DP outputs 4K resolution 3840x2160 or at least 2560 x 1440? The mobo spec states (but I am sure they did not test it under OS X): - Supports HDMI with max. resolution 4096 x 2160 @ 24 Hz / 2560 x 1600 @ 60 Hz- Supports DVI-D with max. resolution 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz- Supports RGB with max. resolution 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz- Supports DisplayPort with max. resolution 4096 x 2160 @ 24 Hz / 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz sebus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aankun.ganteng Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 thanks for the reply! still only have 1 state and turbo states. Did you disable speedstep and turbo mode in uefi bios? Nope, the speedstep and turbo mode are enable on bios. Have you try intel power to check you CPU speed??? If the power gadget show speed between your lowest state speed (mine is 0.8GHz), and max-non-turbo speed (mine is 3.5GHz) when idle. It should be fine. As you can see on my sceenshot. The first red box is when I do browsing while listening to itunes and also open a bunch of app. the second box is when I closing all the app, the third is idle and doing nothing. And the last one is when I open skitch and take screenshot. So basically my processor work just fine, eventhough the DPCIManager show only 3 states. I think DPCIManager's p-state checker is already obsolete for Yosemite, maybe. (the last update on the download page is 2013-08-17) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xouspring Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Yes i checked Intel Power Gadget and i guess my speedstep is working fine according to the graph. Just bugged me that i only get few steps but i'll leave it at that! Thanks again! And you're right, this mackintosh setup works very nicely! Nope, the speedstep and turbo mode are enable on bios.

xouspring Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Me again I'm struggling a bit with the no sound after sleep problem. I've followed the guide to build and installed Codec Commander but unfortunately it doesn't fix the problem. When you edited the plist did you have to modify anything under ASUS or you juste changed the DEFAULT parameters as per the guide? ( didn't need to modify anything in fact with the Z97i-PLUS ) Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
