    GUIDE How to Flash Custom Firmware on Thunderbolt Card for macOS

    Yes correct, with the flashed firmware you get more cosmetic info and the ability to do thunderbolt bridge which I will never use. The stock firmware lets the machine post instantly. Much better for me especially when tweaking with EFI settings from time to time and not have to wait extra time...

    GUIDE How to Flash Custom Firmware on Thunderbolt Card for macOS

    Sorry just getting back now. I flashed back the original Firmware and I get INSTANT boot. Thunderbolt is working perfect other than missing the info under system information. It is an issue with the custom firmware that is causing the delay in boot. Does anyone have any idea how to edit the...

    GUIDE How to Flash Custom Firmware on Thunderbolt Card for macOS

    Ok, All changes made. I cannot get the DTGP removed from GPU without getting errors? Maybe you could help me with this? The Gpu is natively supported so I don't actually have to use that SSDT. I am also on the latest bios version too. The fact is when I remove everything and even clear the...

    GUIDE How to Flash Custom Firmware on Thunderbolt Card for macOS

    Sorry, not sure how I missed uploading my EFI. I updated IO reg to 2.1 and attached below too. This could be specific to this particular motherboard I guess as I seen a few people comment on a thread with Casey J's build with this z490 Vision D. Just frustrating when tweaking some stuff and...

    GUIDE How to Flash Custom Firmware on Thunderbolt Card for macOS

    What else do you need? Here is an IO reg file too. Yes I have dual boot. I really think this has something to do with the flashed firmware. I seen on Casey J thread on Tony Mac that a lot of people were having this issue too but once you turn off thunderbolt in the bios it boots super fast...

    GUIDE How to Flash Custom Firmware on Thunderbolt Card for macOS

    hi guys, I notice if I disable thunderbolt in bios my machine boots in 9 secs in total. If I have thunderbolt enabled with the custom flashed firmware it takes about 20 secs before I see the onscreen bios splash screen. If I flash it back to the original firmware will it speed up this...

    Anyway to get native Airdrop support an Antelope interface?

    Awesome! Great to hear! I do notice when my hack goes to sleep it takes a considerable longer time for bluetooth to come back to life. Not sure if its a monetary bug as there is a few threads talking about this so will hold off until the next update which is coming soon

    No Hyper-threading or Turbo Boost Z490 Vision D

    Sorry, thunderbolt interface limitation is what I meant. Love if I could use both my ram sticks and also use my native WiFi card to have airdrop and continuity without having to worry about it disabling network features due to the ‘Disable IO Mapper’ quirk. If I could help in anyway let me...

    Yes correct, when I use the config with custom smbios no serial is displayed in about this mac and iservices fail to work. I do however get the full speed of 5.2GHZ with my processor. Have you ever heard of this issue before?

    No Hyper-threading or Turbo Boost Z490 Vision D

    I am using GenSMBIOS-master. I have tries a few and can get the Smbios name to change in "about this Mac" but still states at 3.7GHZ. I have attached the config that gets the full 5.2ghz but with this I cannot get a serial to work. Just says "default string" Is there any workaround for this?
