With the GC-TITAN RIDGE, you can enable the PCIe functions by booting into Windows 10 first, then warm boot into macOS. The PCIe functions allow communication to the LG 5K's USB controller, which controls the audio, USB ports, camera, and brightness control.

Would this require booting into Win on every boot in order to use the display? Just double checking if this would be a viable solution. I'm currently running with an unflashed GTX 1080.

I picked up the card on Amazon, very curious to give this a hoot with my 2012.

I think every cold boot. A warm boot should be fine. I'm not sure about sleep/wake. I turned off sleep on my computer (except the display) because my work is on an external USB 3.1 gen 2 raid drive.

@joevt, card arrived today. After some finagling, I have it working in my 2012 5,1!

First impressions:

The thunderbolt ports on this card lack a bit of quality, so you really have to make sure the devices are plugged in solid. I first got it working with my GTX 1080 in Windows 10, but knew it would be a fail with High Sierra due to Titan Ridge support.

Next, I powered down and replaced the 1080 with my spare RX 580 to upgrade to Mojave. The RX 580 cooler as many people know is a bit taller than the 2 slots, so I had to loose my USB3 card and unfortunately put the TB3 card in the x4 slot 3. Waited forever for the firmware updates and finally got it installed. Booted Windows then over to MacOS and I successfully have a LG Ultrafine 5k and a OWC Thunderbolt 2 ThunderBay4 running! Hopefully new web drivers drop someday and I can toss my 1080 back in so I don't loose this precious PCIe slot.

I've only had about 5 minutes with this setup to test, promised a 'date' with my daughter. Will do some more experimenting on this setup tonight.

Update:

Home now...starting to tinker again. For the 5k UltraFine: **edit**full 5k 5120x2880 resolution** I have full display controls (brightness, FaceTime camera, mic in, and speakers) from the thunderbolt controller. Also, additional USB ports on the back of the display are working as intended.

Next up, would love to tackle figuring out how Windows magically blesses this and force MacOS to do the same.

The UltraFine 5K should have a 5120x2880 resolution. You need to connect two DisplayPort cables.

Use SwitchResX to verify resolution timing. Double click the resolution to see the active, blanking, pixel clock, scan rates, etc. It will tell you what is being output to the display for sure.

How many DisplayPort outputs does your 580 have? You might have an issue with two LG UltraFine 5K. Only one will work at 5K or both will be 4K resolution. I don't know. You need two Thunderbolt 3 controllers to support two LG UltraFine 5K at 5K. To get them both to work at 4K, you may need to connect one DisplayPort cable, then a display, then the other DisplayPort cable, then the second display. If that doesn't work, make the first display a different non-LG 5K display, follow the steps, then finally replace that display with the LG 5K. It might work.

Nvidia doesn't support LG UltraFine 5K at 5K in macOS without a patch. I'm not sure if the patch has been updated for Mojave. 4K might work.

Did you try any hot-plug or sleep/wake tests?

All the slots of the MacPro5,1 are PCIe 2.0, so there shouldn't be much performance difference between any of the slots for the GC-TITAN RIDGE. Did you confirm using pciutils that the GC-TITAN RIDGE is running at PCIe 2.0 x4? I've attached my latest pcitree.sh script. The output is more compact, and it handles the case where a PCI bridge is uninitialized (the secondary and subordinate bus are the same as primary bus) which happens when you plug something into the GC-TITAN RIDGE and there's no OS support for rescanning it. Did you try the jumper wire on the Thunderbolt header cable to force the GC-TITAN RIDGE to appear on cold boot? I haven't tried that yet.

I had verified in SwitchResX, but you're absolutly right. I just realized, during my original test I also had a 1440p Apple Cinema Display plugged in so I could see things when first starting up. It was reduced resolution because I had plugged into the DisplayPort pass through on the titan ridge card, so they were sharing the available DisplayPort bandwidth. If the UltraFine is by itself, full 5k resolution. I'm going to edit my post above so others aren't confused. Also, in theory, a second 5k UltraFine could be had with 2 titan ridge cards, but that's over kill. My 580 has enough outputs to make that happen if I really needed it.

Sleep/wake isn't working for me. I just tested.

I need to dig into some of the info you posted in #27 before I play around with jumping. I'll post some results soon to verify 2.0 speeds.

very cool stuff! :)

what happens if you just boot from cold into macOS? (in theory the 5K LCD itself should work even if nothing else does) also im curious if thunderbolt reports anything in system profiler?

also finally I wonder what would happen if you bug reported all of this to Apple :D

Here's a picture of the simplest way to do the jumping as suggested by

jumper wire in header.JPG
I would test the difference using pcitree.sh with and without the jumper after a cold boot.



Here's a test with nothing connected before/after cold boot:

You can see that the GC-TITAN RIDGE is totally hidden.

After connecting a USB 3.0 device to the GC-TITAN RIDGE:
Code: 
┬[0000:00]
├─00:00.0             # g1x4           [8086:4003] [0600] (rev 20) Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5400 Chipset Memory Controller Hub

You can see that the GC-TITAN RIDGE is visible but only the upstream port. At this point we need a driver to change the secondary and subordinate bus number from 01 of the root port to a range of unused bus numbers so that there is room to initialize all the child devices of the GC-TITAN RIDGE and any device that may be connected to the Thunderbolt 3 ports in the future.

When the USB 3.0 device is disconnected, the GC-TITAN RIDGE hides itself again:
Code: 
┬[0000:00]
├─00:00.0             # g1x4           [8086:4003] [0600] (rev 20) Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5400 Chipset Memory Controller Hub

The code that alters the pci tree when Thunderbolt devices are connected and disconnected is mostly in IOPCIConfigurator #187. I haven't looked into it much.

Maybe macOS requires the bus numbers to be already allocated for the root port that the GC-TITAN RIDGE is connected to. It might also require some Thunderbolt device strings to be setup, etc. If macOS won't enumerate then a driver could be made to do it for us. It may need some Thunderbolt code from Linux and maybe some EFI setup code. Ideally it should work for either Alpine Ridge or Titan Ridge based cards.

Unfortunately, right now, the Thunderbolt Display won't activate unless the card is alive. I think if the display was DisplayPort only the pass through would work like you say. System info doesn't report any thunderbolt drivers loaded, but they definitely are. :)

UPDATE @LightBulbFun

So, it's funky, but yes it does display a 5k image from a cold boot. Unfortunately, the LG UltraFine 5k must be power-cycled before an image will display. Brightness, FaceTime and Speakers don't work without going to Windows from cold. Continuing to investigate...

Thanks, once again @joevt, it's a rainy afternoon ahead so perfect time for me to sneak away from the wife's prying eye and try some of this!

@joevt...quick update: cold boot with the jumper on the header cable. The UltraFine didn't come up on it's own, but after remote login I was able to see the card recognized in system info MacOS. By fluke, I power cycled the display and it came to life. No such luck with the thunderbolt hard drive. 'Warm' reboot to MacOS the display works fine, still no drive detected. I'll play with the PCI script next and post results.

Perhaps this Asrock card would also be of interest:
https://thunderbolttechnology.net/product/asrock-thunderbolt-3-aic

It could potentially prove easier for macOS cold boot - according to this reddit post, their TBT header only expects specific voltages to each pin and not actual motherboard logic:
https://www.reddit.com/r/AskElectro...the_pinout_for_those_5pin_thunderbolt/cwptceg

The Redditors above do talk about the older Asrock TB-2 add-in card and not TB-3, though.

That’s Alpine Ridge and not Titan Ridge.

Right now, it doesn't look like the jumper is a quick solution, but I'll keep tinkering. Any more ideas?

Those results all look as expected, except there might be a bug in the pcitree.sh script in the part that tries to interpret the max and current link width and speed, because I don't see stuff like x16 for the graphics card, etc. Maybe you can track down the problem, or send me the temporary files created by the script in a private message. In the private message can you include the output of these commands:
Code: 
sudo setpci -v -s *:* VENDOR_ID.l
sudo setpci -v -s *:*:* VENDOR_ID.l
sudo setpci -s 00:03.0 CAP_EXP+12.w
sudo setpci -s 0000:00:03.0 CAP_EXP+c.l

I did a test with the jumper on my MacPro3,1 from cold boot with nothing connected and got this:

Here you see that the USB controller is visible. I can then hot plug USB 3.0 devices. So the jumper is useful for that purpose at least.

On my MacPro3,1, the fast.sh script is required to change the speed of the slot from g1 to g2 (gen 1 or PCIe 1.0 or 2.5 GT/s to gen 2 or PCIe 2.0 or 5 GT/s). The output from your MacPro did not correctly list the speeds because of the possible bug in the pcitree.sh script.

The Thunderbolt port buses have no extra buses assigned to them by EFI or macOS. Windows does that for us (and probably does the enumerating/enabling of the devices connected to the Thunderbolt ports as well). But while Windows may assign extra buses (need to check Windows bus numbers to be sure), your results show that EFI or macOS trims the set of busses to the minimum so that additional devices cannot be connected without assigning new bus numbers to everything.

What a Thunderbolt add-in card driver would do is, figure out the ranges of free bus numbers, and divide them up between the number of add-in cards you have installed. They would get further divided between the ports of each add-in card. Bonus points for doing that for add-in cards that are connected in Thunderbolt PCI expansion boxes. There are other resources to be divided as well (such stuff as is controlled by BIOS settings for Thunderbolt devices in PCs).

I think we should try setting device property "PCI-Thunderbolt" to the number "1" for the upstream bridge of the GC-TITAN RIDGE probably with the apple.com.Boot.plist method. It might do something but not everything as we won't have anything in the ACPI DSDT for Thunderbolt (I haven't looked at the new MacPro5,1 rom though). I haven't done any Thunderbolt related stuff in ACPI before but you can find a lot of people trying stuff on hackintoshes.

You're right. I think the only way this is going to work is if someone super smart with lots of time comes along and writes a Mac driver for this. Certainly isn't going to be gigabyte...:( I'd chip in money for it though!

I'm willing to try this if you PM me what to insert into the file. I also compared what kexts are loaded with kextstat from a cold vs warm boot, no differences. I kinda expected some Eureka moment, nope. :rolleyes:

Just a thought: has anyome actually tried efi chainloading macOS? (Instead of “entirely” cold boot.) I would first try an EFI shell script or refind or maybe even clover (perhaps using the MacBook Pro 2018 system definition as it natively features the titan ridge or else at least an thrunderbolt equipped desktop like an iMac (Pro)). If those things don’t work you might want to try chainloading macOS from either windows efimgr boot manager (might not work) or EFI grub (will work) as the firmware might initialize hardware differently for “foreign”, non-generic bootloaders.

Happy tinkering!

Edit:
Do the vendors Titan Ridge device IDs differ (compared to apples natives)? A pci dummy Kext might also help.

WARNING ⚠️
only use clover on a Mac if you know, what you are doing. It can potentially brick your machine.

I was also thinking about chainloading, because that is how I chainload Clover from Win 10 through nst_mac.mbr. on my PC, but it is not recommended using Clover on a real mac, because you can easily brick your bootrom. That is proven to happen.

Nice thread here:

Not for everybody. Developers only:)

https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...clover-on-a-real-mac-can-be-dangerous.229629/
The moral of the story? Do an EFI dump before messing with clover...
Click to expand...

I have bricked more than my share of computers over the years, never with software that didn't write to the EEPROM. Clover doesn't write anything to the EEPROM, it has no code to do it, software doesn't work like magic.

Can't be helped if some people don't know what they are doing, likely interrupted a Firmware update, or had a software problem they didn't understand.

I use Clover on real Macs all the time, no issue.

Let's let this thread return to topic, stop believing everything you read on the internet, and repeating it as if it were true and happened to you.

Okay so here are my current findings.

Config:

Mac Pro 4.1->5.1
2x x5680s
48gb DDR3
PCIe slot 4: SM951 ahci boot drive
PCIe slot 3: Titan Ridge AIC
PCIe slot 2: empty
PCIe slot 1: Asus rog rx580 (it’s obnoxiously big)


Unused PCIe devices:

EVGA GTX 1080

Inatek USB 3.0 x4

Inatek SATA/esata

Lycom dt120 carrier board & sm951 NVMe drive


Thunderbolt devices:

Thunderbolt Display 27”

Thunderbolt to GB Ethernet

Thunderbolt 3 akitio node pro PCIe expansion box.

Everything seems to work as expected except the Thunderbolt Display. It doesn’t show up at all in windows nor macOS. No attached devices show up either. Just a blank screen and no FaceTime camera or speakers found.

Googling has lead me to speculate that the intel drivers for titan ridge have removed thunderbolt 2 hub support, but I would have expected it to work in macOS if that was the only issue. I’ve tried power cycling it and waking it with a thunderbolt enabled laptop but no dice.

Going to start playing with getting the EGPU working in windows, then see what macOS has to say about it. May borrow an rx480 to test with since we don’t have Mojave web drivers yet.
