rEFInd is much, MUCH faster at getting to the drive selection than holding down ALT/OPTION.
Got a tip for us?

If you have problems boating with Boot Camp , Windows on your Macintosh maybe you need to fix your master boot record :
EasyBCD might help you

I never install windows with Bootcamp windows does not need bootcamp as long as windows I a 64bit version, it will install on the drive directly. the problem I am having is with the drive itself, that does not want to format properly since it was previously APFS formatted. I very mambo jambo problem ... something that should take 15 min turns into hours ... disgusting ...

Open terminal and find the drive you want to format:
Code:
diskutil list
Code:
diskutil unmountdisk diskXX
Code:
sudo gpt destroy diskXXDone, now you have an un-formatted drive.

Thank you but Gparted will do the job too...
Though should I PM the rom or just post it here?

Post it here or upload to TechPowerUp. We are really interested in the drivers -b and the system profiler (since that have some personal info, you can PM me or @LightBulbFun).

I edited my post when you was replying. The full system profiler you can PM me or @LightBulbFun, since that has some personal info and hardware ids for your Mac.

Got that. Thanks as soon as I'm done with WinCrap I'll post and PM you.

Finally, I got that done, how to turn a 15 mins max job into a hours job with that F******* Windobe...

Sent you a PM.
[doublepost=1540252586][/doublepost]It's 99.99999999% identical as the TechPowerUp RTX2080, just some bytes differ.

What app are you using to compare the binary files? Love how it even takes into consideration offsets/inserts.

Hexfiend 2.9, I love it.

He is doing the drivers -b and the full System Profiler. He did the first page of the drivers -b, but it's not there.

I understand correctly, in the report there is a UGA Console Driver, does this mean that we have BootScreen?

UGA Console Driver is from the Mac BootROM. The Nvidia EFI driver is shown in the second image. The card have boot selector/picker, now we need to see if has support for single mode/verbose.
Just a heads up guys. I posted a link to this in /r/MacPro on reddit and theitsage, someone with a stellar reputation over at eGPU.io has confirmed RTX boot screens. Also. H O L Y S H I T he has thunderbolt 3 working in both windows and macOS with some caveats.

Wow, honestly I feel this year will be the best year for the cMP, Native NVMe, The latest and greatest Nvidia GPUs has UGA support, Probably will have by the end of the year working TB3... 😀😀😀
Yep I’m about to buy the card right now so I can start tinkering as well. Would be super dope if I could run the eGPU as a second compute card in davinci.

thanks @tsialex and @Bion1nc for the screen shots 🙂
its very interesting
especially as the Loaded driver is "nvgop-tu1xx" TU being Turing, 1xx being the GPU series, but GOP is Graphics Output protocol, being a MP5,1 I would of expected to have seen UGA not GOP, so I wonder whats going on there
its all very interesting and intriguing 🙂 (I wonder if we will be able to extract bits from the RTXs ROM image and apply/load it against other cards?)
