Help needed with Ryzen 9 7950x and MSI x670 MAG ACE

[ninjaskija]

Hey guys,

This is my first time posting here. It's been a long time since I've used a Hackintosh (the last was Sierra), and I was thinking of giving it another try.
I have some issues posting (see the attached screenshot).
I've also attached the EFI folder that I have been using along with the OpenCore logs.

Configuration:
CPU: Ryzen 9 7950x
MB: MSI x670 MAG ACE
RAM: 96GB Crucial 5600 DDR5
NVME: Samsung 990 Pro 2TB

Bios settings:
Secure Boot: disabled
CSM: disabled
RBAR: enabled

Any input help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Sure, I don't see any ACPI errors now.

 

[ninjaskija]

Looking a little bit closer I see some ACPI errors but it passed that. This is why I didn't notice them initially.

Test these 2 config.plist
before doing it copy two ssdt file in your EFI/OC/ACPI folder

 

[ninjaskija]

Hey man! I've managed to finish the installation and boot to OS using the first config file although I still saw a lot of errors

 

[fabiosun]

very happy for you
i think in my previous SSDT (i use it) i have intyernal IGPU disabled so maybe it was there the problem

 

[ninjaskija]

Much appreciated man! I wouldn't have made it without your help!
Any advice going further?

yes search for aquantia if it needs additional caseySJ patches or if it only to enable the quirk for it (10 G ethernet)
then you have to map properly your USB and when you would have 6950xt a simple spoof must be added in device properties

Also wifi/BT (if you need) have to be configured with some kext (i have a broadcom changed from original intel ax210) so i use OCLP (opencore legacy patcher)

@CorpNewt did your acpi patches, without it many of us couldnt use new motherboard bioses with new 9xxx cpu support

Here is a link for the Aquantia 10GB patches.

@ninjaskija
here first config.plis you used to boot with applied the second set of CaseySJ patches and the quirk enabled
let we know if it works for you if you like to try

It worked like a charm!

Can you help me with Bluetooth and WiFi as well ?

I'm not sure he can, your mobo has Mediatek wifi/bt, as I could google it. Don't think Mediatek is supported on macOS.

Do you have any idea how I can make this display correctly? i.e., Ryzen 9 7950x and 6000 DDR5, I know it is just a cosmetic thing but it bugs me
Why is USBMap needed,? It seems that all my ports are working fine

have you enabled restricevents kext? mmh i see you have in my config so i dont know why it is not exposed correcly as i see in my rig
Ram it is not cosmetic
it displays as it is seen in your bios

 

[fabiosun]

If you have 4 module if you are very like you can push @5200 (better 4800 to be stable)
with 2 modules you can push simply more

 

[Edhawk]

The only way you will make your Display better/work correctly is by adding a compatible AMD graphics card to your system.

The integrated GPU in your AMD CPU is not supported by macOS. So you will have no graphics acceleration and probably limit choice in the resolution displayed.

It should be the same as what you gave me . I've attached it if you want to take a closer look.

I have 2 x 48 Crucial DDR5 5600 pushed to 6000

I know that . I'm waiting for the 6950 XT to arrive, probably next week.

Also, when I opened the config.plist file some errors popped up. Should I ignore them?

 

[Law_ri]

Those 2 are connected to gpu as I was told. I checked my config and validator didn't report them.
In attach you can see how those 2 look at my config.plist.

Thise errors are about ethernet patches
You can live with them
