Hi all
First let present me.
My name is Antonio and I have MB Pro 5,1 (Mid 2010). The first time I saw one I felt in love. Two years ago I found a cheaper one and I decided to bought it. The configuration was as follows:
- MacOS High Sierra
- 4x8GB (totally 32GB)
- 2 SATA disks
- Original AMD GPU ( no Metal)
In this two years I have update the components up to now.
The last device I’ve bought the last one. This is Sapphire Nitro 4GB ( Fiji XT core) and then started the problems.
The problem I’m suffering is that MBp freeze after a while. I don’t know what event fires the freeze. During the freeze, mouse pointer stills moving but I cannot select any window nor application.
I need to reboot it using tower button.
I’ve read a lot of posts regarding the GPU, Mac Pro and so on without success.
I’m desperated because I cannot found a reason.
I’using dortania’s open core as boot loader.
Any help to solve the problem is welcome.
I have tested Big Sur and Monterey from scratch without success.
Thanks in advance
Antonio
