I'm surprised you can even go that far without SSDT-CPUR (or SSDT-PLUG-ALT). The various memory quirks are not fully in accordance with Dortania's guide (DevirtualiseMmio: true, SetupVirtualMap: false for TXR40), but the guide may not be up to date or the most accurate, and it may be that you...

One actually needs the full set of ACPI tables, DSDT and all the SSDTs. Since you're using a DEBUG version of OpenCore, just set Misc>Debug>SysReport: true This will drop the whole set of tables, together with a list all PCI devices and other goodies to peek through.

On closer look, it's worse than I first thought. The USB objects under _SB.PCI0.GPP7.UPP0 which your SDDTs want still potentially exist under GPP7: In the new DSDT, their creation is now conditional upon various parameters (G002, G000, G003, G004). AMD may be preparing to introduce various tiers...

Yup. The DSDT has been restructured. Old version: New version: USB is now under GP17 and GP18; GPP7 has taken WiFi over. Need to re-do SSDTs for macOS. Have you posted your current EFI somewhere?

Ryzen 8000 with Zen 5 cores, in 2024 for desktops. And—you'll love that part…—hybrid architecture with a mix of Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores, at least for some mobile/console CPUs. Probably "Lenovo exclusive" for 6 months or so before being available at retail, like the 5000WX.

It requires a CH341A flasher, much preferably a model which works at 3.3V, and a SOIC8 clip. If you do need working Thunderbolt, take it as a $10 investment.

If that can help European readers, some reliable shops have them in Germany and in the Netherlands (over 200 available!).

Downgrading BIOS, if possible at all, does NOT downgrade Thunderbolt firmware (NVM). As pointed to by @CaseySJ , you need to ask (or beg…) Asus support to provide a custom BIOS which does downgrade Thunderbolt NVM to the last version with support for TB2. And, of course, if Asus obliges and...

…why Apple does not even advertise the feature. At the very least, it allows to run Intel 500, 700 and Mellanox ConnectX-4 to 6 series in a Thunderbolt enclosure from any Mac or Thunderbolt-enabled iPad. But there's not much official communication about it.

You're welcome… as long as no moderator complain that we're drifting far away from hackintoshing AM5. None of that should generate sync writes. SMB is generally asynchronous; only TimeMachine does generate sync requests over SMB. So based on that you do not need a SLOG at all. Which is the...

SLOG is only useful for sync writes; it is not used for async writes. Async is always a lot faster than sync, even with a SLOG. If you use this NAS for hosting TimeMachine, you actually have sync workload over SMB… but disabling sync writes (sync=never) may be an acceptable solution. SLOG does...

TrueNAS only supports ZFS as file system. As for ECC memory, pages have been written about it… Fact is ZFS is designed with the assumption of ECC memory; ZFS checksums everything on disk to prevent bit rot but trusts what's in memory, relying on ECC to catch bit flips (there's a debug flag to...

Compression is essentially free and there's no reason to turn it off, even for holding "already compressed" files such as JPEG or MP4: Lz4 and zstd are designed to handle the case gracefully. Compression comes in addition to dedup if you want to experiment with it, and I'm curious about the...

If this a for pure storage, go for TrueNAS CORE rather than SCALE. The memory allocator in Linux cannot allocate more than half the RAM to ARC; FreeBSD (Core) has no such limitation. The memory discussion above was for Core; due to this issue, the numbers may double for SCALE. rsync is heavy in...

As you probably know, ZFS is not too good at accommodating that. Drives in the same vdev are best identical, or of very similar size (it's possible to have different vdevs with drives of different sizes tough, there will be a performance penalty as the vdev with more free space will get more...

The headers may not be compatible across manufacturers, but it is not necessary to use the header. One can mix and match, or use a Thunderbolt AIC is a card without header. Titan Ridge is supported by macOS: Hot plug works; a flashed GC-Titan Ridge can enable the Thunderbolt bus and work exactly...

Good teaser (for now, it looks like yet another regular PC) but… a delivery on Easter Monday? :unsure:

@Kubokun Is that a NH-L12S? A quick check of Noctua's Compatibility Center would have prevented the mismatch: @Aluveitie 's excellent suggestion could drop you at the level of a 7900 non-X (= green check, but no margin).
