Thanks Guys and stay safe Dear AudioGod, I just finished unblocking the MSR, I performed the method in the OpenCore Vanilla Guide, as kindly mentioned by others here on the topic. After unlocking, I ran geekbench4 again and noticed the following gains: Single Core 6202 -> 6284 Multi-Core 35408 -> 36092 OpenCL 151813 -> 157833 iMacPro1,1 i9-9900KF Aorus RX 5700 XT Attached is the profile that I saved from my firmware after unlocking it for use by other users of the Aorus Z390 Pro Wifi if they wish. As my processor does not have integrated video, if the user wants to use an iMac profile, he must enable igpu in the BIOS to avoid any error. Thank you, again, AudioGod for allowing the hackintosh dream to materialize for novice users like me. Sorry for my English, I'm using a translation tool.

Is it possible that it hasn’t been working for you since you went to 14.6 and you have only just noticed now? @AudioGod hey mate! Yes, it is absolutely possible as I'm rarely using it and I haven't used it for several months... I mostly keep it on just for the location services to work properly but I needed it yesterday; thus I realised that it is not working Well I have a spare PCI-E ABWB BCM943602CS laying around, I might plug it in and just not connect the Bluetooth that it has on it since I do not need it Or I might just leave it as it is until it will be supported again Thanks for the info mate! 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/339980-audiogods-aorus-z390-pro-patched-dsdt-mini-guide-and-discussion/page/92/#findComment-2715019 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkdesign Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 12 hours ago, GIOMGIO said: Thank you for the awesome guide AudioGod, Glasgood and all the other people who contributed! It helped me a lot! Unfortunately I cannot get CFG unlocked.. (Aorus Pro WiFi) Although this is something easy to do, I still cannot get it to work after hours of trying. I get this GUID error (image below) when I do the setup_var_3 with the modified grub shell. First I was thinking this was normal, but when I check the file it still says: CFG Lock, VarStoreInfo (VarOffset/VarName): 0x5C1, VarStore: 0x1 I dit this checkup this way: -Save BIOS -UEFITool --> IFR Extractor -Look for CFG lock in text file: VarStore still says 0x1 --> I don't know if this is the correct method? What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance! *Another question: When I try the N-D-K OpenCore EFI it won't boot. (circle with slash) Has this something to do with no CFG unlock? I can boot the Clover EFI perfectly fine. The error is common. Just ignore it. You can easily check to see if it is unlocked by opening Hackintool, choose Utilities tab, click and run AppleIntelInfo and you will see: MSR_PMG_CST_CONFIG_CONTROL........(0xE2) : 0x7E000008 ------------------------------------------ - I/O MWAIT Redirection Enable......... : 0 (not enabled) - CFG Lock............................. : 0 (MSR not locked) 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/339980-audiogods-aorus-z390-pro-patched-dsdt-mini-guide-and-discussion/page/92/#findComment-2715024 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the check with Hackintool and it is unlocked. Hackintosh is running great now. Was running High Sierra the last years because of my Nvidia 1080 Ti. Finally made the switch to the AMD RX 5700 XT and everything is running a lot smoother now. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/339980-audiogods-aorus-z390-pro-patched-dsdt-mini-guide-and-discussion/page/92/#findComment-2715049 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZ390WFUK Hi Preatorianus, sorry I wasn't sure if I had unlocked CFG, so I was making sure. Then i was thinking to replace my motherboard because maybe Gigabyte is is not perfectly compatible with hackintosh, but i don't know. So for CFG i think that is unlocked, but in grub shell i get this (attach file). There is an error (offset is out of range). Do you had the same error?

Yes after some research i understand that on each motherboard we need to patch something, understand which kext to use, ecc.. So i keep my GB mobo Pity that the WiFi/BT does not work due Intel CNVi connector. I hope Broadcom does a WIFI/BT module CNVi compatible, or that this limitation can be unlocked from the bios.

A question if anyone knows: i have the CPU locked on 4.7Ghz with all power savings-Speedstep etc off on bios. On windows the frequency stays locked at 4.7 as it should. On osx it fluctuates though it reaches 4.7 when needed. Any way to lock it on 4.7? Is it a Clover thing? Thanks Again guys!!!
