I wouldn't have been able to do it without this subreddit! Thanks to everyone here! Motherboard: Gigabyte Z490I Aorus Ultra (Mini-ITX) CPU: Intel i9-10900k GPU: MSI Radeon RX 570 8GB Cooler: NZXT Kraken X53 Case: NXZT H510i OpenCore: 0.6.2 What's working: USB, Audio, M.2 SSDs (both front and back), SATA SSDs, iServices, Ethernet (only tested up to 1Gbps) What's not working: WiFi, Bluetooth, iGPU. I just followed the OpenCore guide for Comet Lake, and it was pretty much working from there. The only hiccup I had was with Ethernet -- I ended up having to making the following adjustments:
With those changes, Ethernet has been 98% stable for me. Especially using the debug kexts while I was still doing the initial setups, I would get connection drops and had some pretty bad performance problems, but swapping everything with the release builds fixed the reliability problems. I still get a disconnect or two after boot, but after it's been up for awhile it works perfectly. I didn't do any USB remapping -- I saw some posts of other people with the same motherboard saying they needed to do it, but it's working for now. The main reason I built this in the first place was because my 16" MBP was overheating too much for my liking -- work that would have been thermally throttling the laptop (90C+) sits at a nice 28C now (ambient 24C). It was my first foray in to liquid cooling, and I'm really impressed. The AIO was a little more complex to install than an air cooler, but not by that much. Again, thanks everyone! I'll probably be back when it's time to update it... [link] [comments] |
