Cyberdevs Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Hi guys, here is my EFI folder for Gigabyte Z690 Aorus Master rig with Intel Core i9 12900K. Specs are: GA-Z690 Aorus Master Intel Core i9 12900K 32GB CorsAir 6200 MHz Dominator DDR5 (2x16GB) (Currently running at 4800MHz due to some Gigabyte BIOS issues.) CoolerMaster ML360 Illusion Liquid Cooler Samsung 980 Pro 1TB NVMe Asus ROG Radeon RX 580 8GB Fenvi T919 BT/WiFi CoolerMaster C700P Black Edition Case CorsAir RM750X Power Supply I'm currently running macOS Monterey 12.4, macOS Big Sur 11.6.6 and Windows 11 Pro My EFI folder is based on kreactnative's EFI which I made some changes to. The EFI folder hasn't been fully optimized yet but it's good for a start for people with the same components. You might need to remap USB ports based on your setup I had to sacrifice one of the USB Type-C ports on the rear IO to activate my USB Type-C port on the case header because of the 15 ports limit my total USB port count is 16 ports. I have two issues so far which are: 1. System looses USB connectivity every once in a while so I have to reset the system I haven't found out why yet 2. Haven't found the best layout-id for Audio so the audio devices not showing correctly although they work perfectly fine. Notes: Remember to regenerate the SMBIOS settings before using the current config.plist GA-Z690 Aorus Master OC 0.8.0.zip macOS Ventura Support AlderLake OC 0.8.2 GA-Z690 Aorus Master EFI.zip Note: Just remember to regenerate the SMBIOS section and use your own USB ports map if necessary. Also remember that I have disabled my Intel BT/WiFi by removing the USB port map and there are no kexts in this EFI folder for Intel BT/WiFI because I don't use them. I hope you find it useful.

Nice rig though Bro, wish I could go that route, my rig is beginning to show it's age now compared with all the new stuff available. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberdevs Posted May 21, 2022 Author Share Posted May 21, 2022 Yeah the new Intel generation is awesome, I used to have an AMD Ryzen 5900X which I sold it to get this rig and i'm pretty satisfied with the switch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyberdevs Posted May 21, 2022 Author Share Posted May 21, 2022 Thanks man 😁. I hope you get your hands on your new rig soon too 🙂 There are lots of affordable Z690 mainboards and the i5 and i7 processors are not that expensive to start with. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being single has so many good strong points and is looking pretty tempting at the moment from where I am standing but winter nights can be a bit harsh at my age and maybe too late for me now so the Z390 is my mark for the time being. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaLd0n Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Hi, @Cyberdevs Check this EFI folder. EFI GA-Z690 Aorus Master.zip Remap USB with correct way. Avoid Reset SSDT, is a very crazy thing. https://www.olarila.com/topic/14220-hackintosh-usb-port-mapping-guide-2021-2022-mojave-catalina-bigsur-monterey/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberdevs Posted May 22, 2022 Author Share Posted May 22, 2022 Thanks @MaLd0n I will check your EFI folder and I will get back to you. I don't use the SSDT-RHUB-Reset it's just there in the ACPI folder i don't use it at all. The method i used to remap the USB ports was using USBToolBox under windows and the reason i had to use that method was simply because i couldn't use hackintool to map the USBs it doesn't detect my ports at all.

Stefanalmare Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Hi all! I have an z690 Aorus Master + i9 9900k from some time now. Incredible machine with all mac features working and very good benchmarks. But after update to Monterey 12.4 I totally lost sleep. Culprit is the ethernet Aquatia AQC113C. If I unplug the network cable it sleep like a baby. I tried everything, also the SSDT @MaLd0n provided. No result. Maybe you can give me a hint. Thank you!

Have you tried my EFI efi folder? I have tried your EFI, but same, no sleep. Tell me why SSDT-XH_ADLS3.aml is broken? I have no issue with it. BTW, you have 2 tables not loading in ACPI. You have to use (if you want) this modification: 1. TPL error -> use the attached SSDT and block the original. 2. ADBG error -> see below: TPL.aml On 5/21/2022 at 8:13 PM, Cyberdevs said: 2.

Cyberdevs Posted May 24, 2022 Author Share Posted May 24, 2022 @Stefanalmare The comments under the ACPI tables are from the original EFI folder. I don't know why kreactnative made that remark. Maybe it was on earlier BIOS version or something. What does the TPL error do exactly? and when I use the either 1 or 7 for audio layout-id the output names are not correctly shown under the audio menu, for instance when the headphone jack is connected the system doesn't show the headphone it only show's "Internal Speaker" and that's not all it simply doesn't work i have to choose "Lineout" for speakers to work. What is the complete value for OemTableId for "Change ADGB to XDGB"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyberdevs Posted May 24, 2022 Author Share Posted May 24, 2022 @MaLd0n I tried your EFI folder and for some reason macOS can't recognize the Aquantia Ethernet. If I change the following section macOS recognizes the Ethernet but it can't assign the IP address, it either assigns APIPA address or it says the cable is not connected. Original code: Scope (_SB.PC00.RP01) { Scope (PXSX) { Name (_STA, Zero) // _STA: Status } to Scope (\_SB.PC00.RP01) { Scope (PXSX) { Name (_STA, Zero) // _STA: Status } and here is the original code for my current Aquantia Ethernet SSDT: Scope (\_SB.PC00.RP01) { Scope (PXSX) { Name (_STA, Zero) // _STA: Status } On another note I tried to map the USB ports as you instructed in your video guide HSxx ports first with a USB 2.0 flash drive and then exclude the unused ports and then map the SSxx ports and when it's done when I use the SSDT-UIAC some ports won't work.
