The previous owner had Sonoma up and running and I downgraded manually to macOS Monterey, most things went fine at first. What I first noticed was that my old 23" Cinema HD Display and the Radeon Pro 580X don't play well together, I had some graphical glitches and a white beam in the middle of...

Hello everyone, I've always been a silent observer on this forum, but unfortunately, my first post is a cry for help. I'm unsure about what's gone wrong with my cMP, and I desperately need assistance. To pursue my dream of a home studio, I bought a Mac Pro 5.1, upgraded the processors, expanded the RAM to 96GB, and added an RX580. It was a joy to use until I encountered issues trying to run Big Sur with my Firewire audio interface. I attempted OCLP, but it wouldn't boot with the card... Read more Source: MacRumors

Hi MacRumors, I am hoping that someone can give me a bit of direction here. I recently purchased a 2nd hand KyroM.2 evo to use in my MacPro 5,1 2010.

I have power going to the Kyro as evidenced by the orange LED's but there is no visibility on the System report. I have tried it without the NVME on the card but its still the same. Obviously as a...
