Put it in EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other,and it works。。For example,I upload a kext, Core: 1442MHz/1075mV ,Memory: 1045MHz/1075mV,Temp target: 57,Idle fan: 700rpm. RadeonVegaLowFansSpeed.kext.zip Awesome kext. When I login to macOS the fan is idle and all working well. When I run something like The Valley the fans kick up to 4000RPM and just stay there until I quit it. Any way to limit the fan speeds? If I take out the kext, the fans don't kick up that high but the idle issue is still there. Any ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfinchina Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 It's not working with the 10.13.6 beta I tried to modify the AMD10000 kext and lost acceleration. Then I tried to copy the kext from my cloned 10.13.5, still no good. Then I tried to use the kext above with the 10.13.6 info plist but it won't load. It sounds like there's some biggish changes. I can't even mount EFI with CC lol. Maybe Apple have made security or permission changes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surfinchina Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) The fixes have stopped working on 10.14... GPU itself seems fine though. I'm just back to one DP and one HDMI. edit: after a few tests, cinebench openGL is down 50 points to 130, Geekbench GPU is down by 45,000 points from 195000 to 150000! So Mojave isn't good for the Vega at the moment... edit next day: I just used the -lilubetaall arg and it's good again Edited June 6, 2018 by surfinchina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrtnGrdnrPhoto Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Hi everyone, I have a Vega 64 Gigabyte and have applied the https://www.insanelymac.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=298343 Vega 56 kext to it, the fans are no longer spinning so quickly but it seems the performance is down a little... I'm liking it that I don't have a leaf blower in my office but would people expect that this would limit my performance? Thanks for any insights.

The fan for the cooler is a little more noisy but that's not a big problem. How do I add that powertable? I used the RadeonVegaLowFansSpeed kext on my RX Vega 64 Liquid without a problem but would like to increase it's performance a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kekekek Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I have a 10.13.5 i7 8700k Asus Z370g Gaming wifi system that I was using with 980ti but got tired of the video stuttering issues, so I ordered two AMD cards: Red Devil Vega 64 and Sapphire Pulse Vega 56. Tried the Vega 64 first, but it was very loud and once it spinned up its fans then it wouldn't never spin them down but also had some annoying mouse lag - I could steadily move mouse cursor in one direction and once every few seconds it would stop it for like 1/3 of a second and then just continue the movement. I've switched the card for the Sapphire Pulse Vega 56 that seems to have fan speeds in check, however the annoying mouse lag/stutter is there as well. Does anyone knows what causes it and how to fix it? I've tried updating to latest 5422 Clover, latest Lilu, Shiki, and so on, but nothing seems to be fixing it. The OS recognises the card as 'Radeon RX Vega 56 8176 MB', the system profile I'm using in Clover is iMac 18,3. Any help is appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just used the original files that were from overclocker.net. Thanks for the help! Thanks for letting me know. I found my registry is in ASCII but the registry files in overclocker.net are in UTF-16LE Text editors are smart enough to handle that but stream/text command line tools ain't so smart (or perhaps it was me who wasn't so smart). I wrote a C program to decode the original registry files. After that, the same convert.sh should work well. cd /path/to/extracted/location/decode-and-convert ./decode <original.reg> <output.reg> ./convert.sh <output.reg> If you are using macOS 10.13, the binary *should* work OOB, if not, just hit make decode The convert.sh, decode binary for 10.13, as well as its source code are in attachment. Edit 1: I can't upload attachments for unknown reason......here is the archive in AWS S3: https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/iodine131-macos/decode-and-convert.zip Edit 2: I think the RadeonSoftPowerTableEditor outputs registry files in ASCII instead of UTF-16LE. That's why I can't reproduce the issue previously. Edited June 21, 2018 by iodine131 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Setura Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 in 13.5 I'm finding that after having used my Radeon Pro WX9100 for a while now that each update, the reset to 1500mhz gives a boost to FCPX and makes general gaming in OSX more responsive. With the 57 deg target 1442mhz patch to the kext I'm getting a notable drop in FPS in games after a few hours play (even simple games like League of Legends where my old as hell HD7970 would keep fps at or around 60, matching my apple cinema display) but if I drop the patch and keep the stock setting with the higher clock my Radeon Pro, it performs much better in games and is a tad more responsive in FCPX. Sad thing is, because there is no fan curve, after a few hours gaming the system simply shuts off because the card overheats because its wrongly standard high spin speed never increases with use. is there a way to tweak that long line of code to keep the Radeon pro at 1500mhz stock and just up the fan curve? Maybe a 50 deg target to go with that stock clock speed? If lowering the voltages while keeping the speeds at stock would help I'm happy to test a few different settings out. This card seems to throttle a bit on my average working day when it waits for 57 deg. FCPX doesnt seem to run it as hard as it possibly could and so Even doing big renders on the 57deg patch the card hardly ever has its fans spin up all that much but it sure does get warm... so I would be keen for a more aggressive fan curve if its at all possible? I don't mind quite a bit more fan noise, my two HD7970 used to make enough noise during long renders that you could hear them down the hallway at night. The comparative silence of this card, when patched, unnerves me. I don't have windows installed to compare as I'm only really a mac/hackintosh user..

Winslayer Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Hello, I'm hoping someone can help me with an issue creating the kext for my card. I have the ROG Strix Vega 64, I am able to use the RadeonVega56AirCoolingFansFix file made by wyhct without any issues. When I log in, the fans don't spin up and whenever I'm in an app using the video card, the fans will spin up like they are supposed to. However, when I make the kext myself using the instructions in this thread with the MorePowerVega64strix.reg, it is not working correctly. When I boot up the machine, the fans do not spin just like they are supposed to not do, but when I try to do anything graphically intensive, the fans continue to not spin at all until the entire machine freezes up and I have to do a cold boot. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. For some reason I cannot attach files in the forums, so I'm sending a link of my files that I have on Dropbox. This is the reg that I'm using to modify the kext and the modified kext which doesn't work correctly on my system. Any advice or help would be appreciated!

Tony Arnold Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Has anyone created a table that stops spinning the card's fans when it reaches 55º or lower? I'd like my Sapphire NITRO+ Vega 64 (not LE) to have the same behaviour as when running under Windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojave is great with the Vega. Better than windows now. The 10.13.6 latest seems to have got the same treatment. For me anyway. They're finally getting the Vega working as it should. Can you comment on the difference in temps? My Vega crashed a couple of times on Mojave when I was running the speedup kext and was running quite hot...
