Is there a reference that shows a comparison of these 2 options to get Monterey installed on a 5,1. What are the pros and cons of each : OCLP vs the Martin Lo OC packages? I will be using RX580. I am currently on Mojave with 144 BOOTROM. thank you
My understanding is, that OC 0.9.8 have to be removed to replace it with OCLP. Is that even possible without creating an installer via OCLP and do a clean install of Sonoma?
Hi Alex,No, you need to do a clean install of Sonoma with the OCLP created installer. Btw, do it on an empty disk.
Ventura/Sonoma runs extremely poorly with a MacPro5,1 because of the missing AVX2.0 support and no hacking can fully workaround this issue. Since several apps now require AX2.0, like Adobe AfterEffects/Premiere Pro/Media Encoder and others, Ventura and Sonoma are a no go for several workflows with a MacPro5,1. Some will say that works fine, but a lot of people downgrade to Monterey after verifying that several apps now doesn't work anymore.
Is there a list I can check for AVX2-required Apps on Sonoma?
Alex, just a question: assuming that one is not using one of the problem apps that requires AVX2, do Ventura and Sonoma work reliably?
If your apps do not need anything newer, there is no reason to go past Monterey. Save yourself the headaches.The more I read, the more certain I am that I'll stop at Monterey for the time being. I don't really need to cut my throat on the bleeding edge of technology! Seems like I'm most comfortable moving to a new MacOS release just about the time they EOL support for it. Funny, that.
Can you let me know which plugins you have seen are using AVX2. I am trying to save myself some pain trying.[...] Logic is one of the problematic ones, several plugins now require AVX 2.0. [...]
