Has Apple really fixed DisplayPort 1.4 DSC support in Sonoma?
Add a new APFS volume and do a fresh install of Sonoma to test. -
Ryzen 7000 Testing
Yeah, the board probably applied a very unhealthy SoC voltage to get the IMC running at that speed with 4 DIMMs. They can probably improve with microcode updates to a certain degree, but we saw with Alder Lake that the first generation of the DDR5 memory controller will have such issues. Was... -

For 4 DIMMs AMD specifies max supported speed of 3600MT/s, usually you can get more than the max supported speed but Zen 4 is just bad with 4 DIMMs. Just because the memory has a certain profile does not guarantee it will be working at all, you might have to wait for Zen 5 or 6 to hit 6000MT/s... -
Ryzen 7000 Testing
I'd assume they will announce it with the new MacPro next Monday. -
Ryzen 7000 Testing
The AS MacPro is most likely coming in the same case as the old one, offering PCIe slots for storage and networking. Probably also Apple's own compute modules. -
Ryzen 7000 Testing
Apple usually announces new hardware support in the beta release notes. According to several leakers the new Mac Pro should be announced at WWDC next Monday. -
Ryzen 7000 Testing
Which one do you think Asus will give more priority: The board that has been sold in the hundred of thousands and is a support nightmare or the super expensive board that has been only sold a few hundred to a few thousands and is fairly manageable in case of issues? -
Ryzen 7000 Testing
Board vendors are currently rushing out new BIOS updates. I'd check the SoC voltage first, if it is not critical I'd wait updating the BIOS until bugs are worked out and things settle down. -

Ryzen 7000 Testing
Big Sur Beta had the Navi 21 driver months before the Radeon 6000 Pro cards were announced. I don't think this changes the odds as Pro cards were inevitable whether Apple uses them or not. -
Ryzen 7000 Testing
RAM requirements for ZFS are grossly overstated, ZFS just uses as much RAM as it can, but that does not mean it will run faster with more in a particular use case. For a simple Backup NAS even 8GB works just fine since you have mostly a single client writing to it, no need for large ARC. I have... -
Ryzen 7000 Testing
@Kubokun Enabling Eco Mode with 105W will only cost around 5% of peak MT performance but cut down power consumptions and temperatures considerably. Ryzen 7000 is basically overclocked by default and eco mode brings them down to where previous gens were on default settings. -

Apple released macOS 11.4 Beta 1 with Navi 21 drivers on April 22 while the new MPX modules were announced over 3 months later on August 3. With the current time line, the new MacPro will likely arrive before. I don't see that Apple will release new MPX modules after it discontinues the old...
