I've attached the modified rom if someone want to to give it a try. On heavy load (Valley and LuxMark) the fans slowly increase the speed but it is still acceptable. Seems OK besides OpenCL_OceanWave_Bandwidth_V161: is this bad? On the original apple board both the 2 displays did come on. I'm not really sure if everything it is working OK: for sure the upper DVI port it is not working at all in any test I've made, while the first MDP (whit a 27" LED Cinema Display connected) and the lower DVI port (with a 24" Cinema HD display connected) are working OK.Īt boot I do have only the MDP port working while the DVI comes up after user login: I really do not know if this is bad or if it is OK. I was unable to test both MDP working together or both DVI working at the same time, neither the HDMI since I do not have cables or displays to connect to.

The board has 2 DVI ports, 2 MDP and one HDMI.

I've flashed a Sapphire Toxic R9 280X ( ) on a Mac Pro 4.1 early 2009 running 10.9.3. The card displays correctly again, but still no boot screens ! Thinking maybe ATIWinFlash screwed up, I created a new ROM with the Netkas script (r9mac.rom), and went the FreeDOS route and a Nvidia GT 610 for video.įirst I extracted the bad ROM for reference (r9bad.rom) and flashed the new r9mac.rom to the card: Mac Pro was accessible through file and screen sharing. I hard reset the Mac Pro and the card was outputting only light grey screen, no Apple logo or anything.

I hit Start menu, restart, then Windows was blocked on the "Shutting Down" screen (waited over 15 minutes). It needed to run in admin mode, I did that, it went through it's thing then displayed: I then tried flashing this file to the R9 card using ATIWinFlash in Bootcamp. I can see that the EFI part starts at offset 65536 in Hex Fiend, but I don't get how the "padding" (correct word?) works at the end of the ROM file, so I thought it best to stick to Netkas' script.īefore getting the R9 card I had tested the script with ROM files from the web and had errors, so I started from a fresh bundle and the r9280x.rom from my actual card. I correctly extracted and backed up the card's original rom (r9280x.rom) via ATIWinFlash 2.6.7 from Bootcamp. Ran a few benchmarks and it responded as expected (pretty friggin' fast, great OpenCL performance).

I first installed the card with power and it ran fine in Mac OS 10.9.2 and Windows 7 without boot screens.

I'd be grateful for any help you can give me. I've been reading many threads here, but this is my first time flashing a graphics card so if I ask some really dumb question or made a stupid mistake don't hesitate to blast me, but I have done other hacks on my macs over the years so I'm not totally lost. I've been having trouble creating a rom for my new Gigabyte R9 280X (GV-R928XOC-3GD (rev.
