From my reading you can safely ignore that warning I believe? I got the same warning I think it's just a slight cosmetic glitch.

I'd try booting into recovery console and running recovery on your main installation? Looks like a permissions error?

Almost complete....couple configuration questions.
  1. Do I need to check the box for Drop OEM in Clover Configurator?
  2. Additionally, I have 4 SSDTs in my patched folder. Do all of those need to be sorted in SortedOrder? Or, is only having SSDT.aml sufficient?
  3. Results in Terminal correct?

DropOem=true is not really related to this topic. It is required only if you have patched ACPI files in ACPI/patched. It seems like you don't have any (all SSDTs you have are "add-on", not "patched").

Thanks! Restarted. How do I test? Got it, test by putting AppleIntelInfo.kext on desktop and run commands.

Attached Intel Power Gadget reading and kext tests.

Power gadget only ever spikes to 3.2...from what I can tell.

How do I know it's successful? I do see more p-states...not sure what I'm supposed to be looking for exactly.

It appears to be working (pstates observed are consistent with expectations for i5-6500 specifications).
 
Hello can someone help me confirm I created a proper SSDT for my system, based on the p-states. This is for a i7 6700K 4.0 GHZ
