Tried this beta bios but it is unstable in my rig with same previous parameters I use in bios

Back to 1303

 

[fabiosun]

intersting beta with new agesa

 

[fabiosun]

 

thanks to some bios optimisations advices from an user (@nx), less temps and max wattage, benchmark improvement 🙂

ciao , rispetto a prima le temp. sono migliorate? se si di quanto + o - ?

 

Hi, compared to before the temps have they improved? If yes of how much + or - ?

[fabiosun]

yes I have had a great improvment in idle and also in full load condition

———-/
 

Si sono migliorate di parecchio

dai 5 ai 7 gradi in idle

in full non posso dirlo in quanto i precedenti dissipatori raggiungevano la temperatura massima di 95 gradi

con questo ho visto massimo 90/91 gradi

Added in OP Clover R5149 EFI for my configuration

Boots and works as Opencore*

 

*audio problem is there for AM5 users because clover is not well updated for AM5 platforms

 

[fabiosun]

 

on AM5 it is a pain

No wifi/no ethernet and many others things are wrong on Sonoma for Asus hero

 

to install (quite easily) I have had to disable ASMedia sata, AMD Sata, WIFI,Ethernet (also disconnecting the cable), thunderbolt....

 

AMD Kernel Patches work fine (it is mandatory to change Darwin maxKernel value on some patches

 

no good experience for now 😞

 

[fabiosun]

Added macOS Sonoma compatible Opencore EFI in OP!

An old app is doing pretty well its job with some adjustments you can find here:

Hi @fabiosun

 

This Nvme raid configuration is very interesting. Are there any particular instructions to follow if i want to make it with my hardware configuration? For example, do you need to configure the bios first? I have the last two free PCIE lines and i could try to put it on one of these: even if I don't know if it will work.

[fabiosun]

With your SAGE you should be safe to use it (check lanes on your manual)

Instead my Hero is a more consumer motherboard and has some problem with bifurcation with PCIE slot

In my particular case I have filled all four NVME PCIE card slots..but only two are working.

I have sent back all to amazon because I would like to have four NVME on that PCIE card (plus other 4 I have on m2 motherboard slots)

@fabiosun

 

Thanks for the clarifications. In fact, i've read amazon reviews of the PCIE card and noticed some users complaining that only two out of four NVME cards work. If you find another one that runs all four NVMEs, please report it here. Thank you!

[fabiosun]

@Extreme™Sorry I have explained in a bad way I think

problem is not PCIE card, but the lanes of my motherboard (a combination of CPU kind and overall motherboard features)

 

Your  Sage motherboard should have enough lanes to have all 4 Nvme working because it is a more "pro" motherboard and it has a lot of independent PCIe 16x

 

this is from my motherboard manual:

 

you should check in yours if it has this section

@fabiosun

 

No, I think i misunderstood. Sorry.
I checked in the bios but didn't find the same menu as yours. Also in the manual it seems to me that there is no mention of bifurcation.

[fabiosun]

I think it works in WS X299 Sage but I can't try by myself

Bifurcation is for motherboard which does heavy shares of PCIE and CPU lanes

(I am not so expert in this field), but x299 Sage has independent PCIex and it could work

 

here are a bit off topic, but if you can buy from amazon and you think is useful for your system it is possible to try 🙂

[fabiosun]

It is safe to update for AMD users (macOS Sonoma beta 4)
