I'm on an early 2009 Mac Pro 5.1 running OSX 12.5.1 with 2x3.46 Ghz 6-Core Intel Xeon processor and a Radeon RX 580 gfx card.
Best I can tell is that I am running Bless OpenCore 1.3.
An expert configured this system for me at great expense back in 2022 and for the last 4 years the system has run flawlessly.
However, in the last week I am having non-stop kernel panics.
I am attaching the crash report and a ChatGPT analysis.
ChatGPT took a look at my crash report and in the final analysis said this:
"The root cause is almost certainly GPU patching on a MacPro5,1"
And suggesting this:
Step 1: Reduce GPU patching complexity (biggest win)
If you are using OpenCore:
* **Disable or simplify Shiki flags**
Can anyone help with suggestions?
Thank you,
ED
