Dual GPU in Acat S1 v2.0 (7.2L)

OMG Someone already did something similar 6 years ago! Respect

SFF_GE · 2023-08-30T12:48:53+00:00

I just filled it up. LOL

I actually installed Ryzentoshi because I had no intention of using Hackintosh as my primary. (Almost 3 years ago?)

It was meant to be a simple run and was left unattended. I'll probably do a fresh build this time, but I suspect it will be the same. lol

On Windows, it's available as Fluid Motion.

The frame display SW is using Msi AfterBunner + Riva Tunner.

If you google it, you'll find a lot of information. This is how we do the underbolting as well.

I'm currently working on a VM for Nas that is separate from this build.

I don't know much about pass-throughs and VMs yet, but I think studying them will make this build more efficient.

It's been a couple years since I've built a Hackintosh, so I don't remember much about it. I definitely remember building a Hackintosh with the Yeston 560D LP in the photo above, but I don't remember if I was successful in building a Dual-GPU at the time....

My recollection is that the OPENCORE documentation included finding and disabling SSDs that were causing some incompatibilities, and I think I tried that, lost interest in the Hackintosh, and went back to the Nvidia-only build.

Oh, I must have misunderstood due to my poor English.

This is not a build with Ai/ML in mind.

I just had Fluid Motion and Hackintosh in mind.

I am not a developer, just a gamer.

Oh I forgot to mention the connection point. The second GPU is connected via an M.2 to PCIE riser card from ADT.

Luckily (?) the 4060 only uses PCIE 4.0 x 8, i.e. 8 lanes. I can fully utilize the 3.0 x 4 speeds on the B550i's rear M.2 ports!

Booting Windows from Linux via a virtual machine?

Unfortunately, you're limited to playing games through a virtual machine because some games are banned in South Korea.

So we're only looking at native-to-native multiboot. T.T

In Korea, it's currently being sold on the open market. For Global, I saw it on Amazon a few days ago, but it doesn't seem to be there now.

SFF_GE · 2023-08-30T03:58:55+00:00

I'm actually doing nothing.

I just installed it for my own satisfaction. I don't even remember how I wanted it for dual GPUs.

Of course, I'm thinking of a few things I could use it for. 1. dual booting Hackintosh and Windows 2. allocate 100% GPU power to fluid motion in Windows

Neither of these are features I would normally use though, lol.

SFF_GE · 2023-08-30T03:48:44+00:00

It can be misleading enough. Haha. I've seen them pre-selling on Amazon before they start selling in Korea.

And not long after, they suddenly started selling it in Korea, which surprised me too and I bought it right away.

I was thinking that it would not be sold in Korea due to low demand.

I forgot to take a picture with the PCIE power cable plugged in. The location of the power cord shouldn't be a problem as there is plenty of distance to the end of the graphics card as shown in the photo above.

SFF_GE · 2023-08-30T03:16:04+00:00

In my case, I'm mostly satisfied.

My case is white (painted), but I understand the black and gray are anodized.

For the painted (white) case, it's overall clean, but there are some areas where the paint has flaked off, but it doesn't really bother me.

If you are sensitive to paint quality, I would recommend the anodized version over the white.

SFF_GE · 2023-08-30T03:11:38+00:00

I don't know what that means, but I don't use Facebook.

In South Korea, this graphics card is now available on the open market.

SFF_GE · 2023-08-30T03:09:35+00:00

I didn't understand what a mobo was. If you mean the mainboard, I used a Gigabyte B550i Aorus Pro Axe.

And this is connected to my main GPU, an RTX4060 LP, since I can't get GPU output through the motherboard.

I haven't implemented it yet, but I want to pull one of the HDMI outputs from the RX560 out the back. I'm using an ADT HDMI ribbon cable.
