sea_man Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 After some testing with Mario Bross we were indeed able to get a AMD 7970 working with QE under Mac OS X 10.8.3 using DSDT injection method. http://rampagedev.wo...g-with-full-qe/ Important Note : You need a working SLEEP system because a bug ...and also you will need your 7970 injected in the DSDT to have 100% support in any app....( your 7970 will also work partially without DSDT injection.. but without any FB loaded ), if you have a White o black screen after boot.. just put your system to sleep and later wake up.. it will make work your 7970. Note: If you have problems whit the boot loader screen ( like a funny characters ) Just update your boot loader ! ( i test whit the last champlist and it work fine whit my 7970 ) Also this only work whit the 10.8.3 , the new 7***.kext can't work alone in 10.8.2. Important: this also can apply to any AMD 7*** series GPU , just test and report 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegmanosx Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 would this work with a 6970 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Dev Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 would this work with a 6970 ? No, this has nothing to do with the AMD 6970. The AMD 6970 will Never Be Supported. Its time for you to sell that card and move on to a new card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k3nny Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 (edited) I will join with my XFX 7870 DD, too. Have to go into Sleep on every boot. I guess this is called cold boot issue? Attached are a decompiled DSDT and an IOReg file. EDIT: Replaced the Chutoro framebuffer with a custom one. I chose it because of the matching port amount. Still no luck. 7870.zip Edited January 12, 2013 by k3nny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tofagerl Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I tried today, but after installing 10.8.3 Chameleon stopped working. Note that I'm on UEFI, so no DSDT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAHAHA UEFI does not mean you should not be using a modded DSDT. Not using a modded DSDT is the worst way to go when using OS X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Dev Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Why are you laughing at me, I just did what this guy told me: #################### Consider the source: http://www.insanelym...ort-tonymacx86/ They only care about advertising and revenue on there site. Have you not noticed that they seem to only really support one manufacturer... What they do not tell you is all the drivers that will not load and features that will not work without a DSDT. Having UEFI does not equal a Mac. I was not laughing at you but the idea of thinking that UEFI BIOS means no need for a modded DSDT. I assume you are new to Hackintosh and once you are around for a bit you will understand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
