Good luck buddy.
ok. followed dortania this time with big sur installation. havent installed bluetooth and wifi yet, but sleep (biggest issue last time) looks like it is fixed. it recovers from sleep and no fans at fullspeed :) is there anything i should test now? bluetooth and wifi is necessary for continous feature, right?

If it works and feels good and benchmarks look right then just enjoy it my friend. :)
What wireless card do you intend on using?

@AudioGod Hi again! what about m2 nvme 4.0? I haven't set this option, as you do, on bios and everything is working properly. I recently have bough a samsung 980 PRO 2 tb, it should work as 4.0, shouldn't it?

I leave my m2 slots on auto and have ran a 980 pro on my board without realising and it was fine.
you can even leave pcie slots all on auto too and it’s fine with a Navi/big Navi as long as you use ignore instead of pikera.
Some cards don’t like it so in the guide I mark the slots to be set at gen3 but it’s purely me just playing it safe for other users.

So, If I understand correctly, there is no need to set m2 to 3.0. Have you run a speed test?

I am planning to buy one big navi gc.

Lol 🤣

It will just default to gen3 if left on auto. Don’t quote me but to this day I don’t beleave there’s any gen 4 support on macOS. Speeds will feel and perform the same.

Im waiting to get my hands on a 6800xt myself but the prices the Manufactures are asking are just to stupid. Even after a trade discount it’s still nearly double what it should cost. I’ve started hassling AMD like a did with Asus in the hope that to shut me up they give me 6800xt at normal price or for free…lol.
Its been nearly 2 weeks of me asking every other day and no luck yet. 😂😂

Anyone successfully dual booted with NVIDIA RTX + 2nd GPU working for OSX? My understanding is to disable the appropriate PCIE using the info here:


Just checking - going to try it later on.

Yep you got it create a ssdt to block out the rtx in macOS. (The device properties method most likely won’t work)

That does impress me yes. You saying benchmarks in big sur are showing 4.0 speeds for the 980 pro then?
Thats awesome if that is indeed the case. 👏

@Cosmin You need to make a couple of simple changes to use the EFI with your board.
in the config.plist under Booter->Quirks change DevirtualizeMmio to Yes and SetupVirtualMap to No
Also you might want to disable the USBMap.kext for now as I’m sure it won’t be the same but il double check that for you now and confirm.

Update - Yep disable the USBMap.Kext from the config.plist aswell.

Thanks, but my install stucks at 12 min remaining time on the graphicall install stage: it restarts itself, and I have no new item in OC boot items other than install mac os big sur....

Is that with the above settings changed?
Also did you format the disk to APFS?
Once the install process starts and it restarts did you leave it and see what happens and if you did did it just boot back to the first welcome page at install?

Hi people.
I am using this EFI and it is sensational, I even managed to migrate to the bigsur 11.5 version.

I temporarily solved the problem of the internal microphone with an external sound card, simple.

But, I still couldn't get the Asus Strix E-Gamming's native Bluetooth and Wifi to work.

I downloaded the drivers as described, but I still find it difficult to make the correct configuration for them to work.

Can you help me by informing if I need to change any flag in the bootargs or even remove some configuration of the current EFI for native BT and WIfi to work?

Thank you very much in advance.

@carrilhos Add your SMBIOS details to the new config.plist I have attached to this post and then Replace your Config.plist with the new one. I have added the kexts needed for the intel wireless to the kernel and all you need to do is download the kexts and add them to your Kext folder inside the EFI.

WiFI Kext - AirportItlwm_v1.3.0_stable_BigSur.kext.zip
BlueTooth Kexts - IntelBluetooth.zip

Let me know if that works for you buddy?
Good Luck. :)
