asus x870e hero ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E Hero - Ryzen 9950x

[fabiosun]

As soon as possible i will fill with a working EFI 🙂

These below are ACPI patches useful to avoid ACPI errors with bios 1203

As always thanks @Corpnewt aka CorpGhost on AMD-OSX discord to do them for us 🙂

Configuration in detail:

Case ThermalTake Core X9

PSU Enermax 1700w platimax

Asus ROG CrossHair x870E Hero
192 Gb Corsair Vengenage 6400 Mhz 4x48Gb

2 6950xt 16 Gb GPU ( 🙂 )

2 KC3000 Nvme Kingston 2 Tb

2 Sabrent Rocket 4.0 1 Tb

2 SSD 4Tb each

2 HD 20 Tb each

 

I did an initial working EFI.

to support 6950xt OSX needs a spoof to 6900xt

One slot needs additional SSDT bridge

 

I did also a fast USB mapping , i have to refine it better

Attached my working EFI

 

Pay attention:

Intentionally i didnt build a MMIO whitelist Area but i have used DisableVAriableWrite quirk to boot without MMIO declaration

I do not advice to do the same , and you should build your proper MMIO area to whitelist

 

System works wonderfully and the only things i can see it is not working are ASMedia USB4 and WIFI because i do not want to disassamble ASUS motherboard plate , in a future maybe i will do

as last information i am using 1203 Asus Hero bios

Hi Fabiosun,

Is the sleep function working fine with this motherboard? I am considering between ProArt and ROG CROSSHAIR mainboards.

I intend to use it with Ryzen 9900x, should that work fine? I've seen some discussions around tha cpu not being recommended.

Thanks in advance for your advise.

I think it is the best solution! 🙂

in my case all things work (only realtek ethernet doesnt work and also USB4 ports dont work)

Audio is USB audio (you have to map properly your USB)

9900x works (i have a 9950x but you have only to change core count patch i think)

Sleep works

Thanks, actually you inspired me to upgrade to one of those two configurations.

Between the two mainboards ProArt or ROG CROSSHAIR which one you consider more stable?

I saw that ProArt doesn't require ACPI patching while ROG CROSSHAIR does.

If you can afford an Asus Hero (if in your country is available) i would buy it

i had both but Hero is far away better

The only pro for Proart is about 10 Gbit Aquantia ethernet

I prefer Hero because i use 2 6950xt and slot space is better

EDIT:

also internal wifi is not working for both..but i have mounted in internal wifi a broadcom (on proart is more simple to do because hero has a huge backplate)
