  • Successful install! (Catalina 10.15.7)

    I would at least look around to see if your card needs any specific support, or ask someone who has more knowledge on Kepler (600 Series) hackintoshes other than me, but according to Dortainia, you'll need Lilu.kext & WhateverGreen.kext as well as a shikigva=40 boot flag.

    Check out this page for your Lilu.kext and this page for your WhateverGreen.kext. When using WG, try using the boot arguments shikigva=40 which will set your boardID as an iMac14,2 which helps with some nVidia Support. If that doesn't help, maybe use agdpmod=vit9696 which skips the boardID check altogether which has been known to fix black screens. Installing WhateverGreen, in general, will most likely solve your issue though.

  • how to install radeonsensor kext? (opencore, coffee lake Vega56)
    1 project | /r/hackintosh | 29 May 2023
    I'd like gpu monitoring for my my Vega56. on the page https://github.com/aluveitie/RadeonSensor, i can see RadeonSensor folder, but no kext inside, only some cpp files etc. also, the README says this kext isn't needed for Vega 10 and older. is Vega56 newer or older?
