Hackintosh does not use the OC from BIOS

@Solidww,

Clover can inject the IGPU PlatformID but can not patch the framebuffer on its own, for that you need to use Lilu + WhatEverGreen and define IGPU Device Properties in your config.plist.

See this Guide for info and how to do it :-

Hey, jaymonkey. You've been very helpful. I know it's me missing the mark somehow. Again, I can inject the headless ID "0x01620007" at the boot screen. When I use the Hackintool app now. The app tells me I have a Sandy Bridge computer instead of an Ivy Bridge. So, obviously I am missing something. Let me know any thoughts or I can try doing the dGPU + iGPU set up after upgrading to 10.14.6. I have some editing work to do at this time. :)

@Solidww,

You can easily over-ride Hackintools default CPU Generation selection using the drop down menus in the patch sub screen.

Okay, jaymonkey. I was able to fix part of the issue now. I can get great results from FCPX without the crashes of the software or Mac OS X. I had to move my Lilu and whateversgreen.kexts to the other folder on the EFI partition. Okay. Cool???
And, now I will post what I get with Hackintool in a later post. As I not getting the results that are suggested in that write up that I have been referred to. Thank you for now, though jaymonkey!

@Solidww,

There should be no reason why the kexts wont work if installed correctly to /L/E

Glad you've been able to make some progress on the issue, although it sounds like you still need to work on your configuration further. If you require further help please post Proper Problem Reporting Files (PPRF's) using this tool :-

Hello, jaymonkey. I am a bit perplexed by this statement, "although it sounds like you still need to work on your configuration further". Is this the reason for all the errors with USB3 card reader and the dGPU/iGPU issues I am having? This is getting interesting as I concerned as to why the computer isn't seen correctly as a iMac from either 13,2 or 14,2 era. :banghead::mad::beachball::crazy: That's enough smileys to show my confusion. :)

@Solidww,

I was referring back to what you wrote in post #23 :-

Your words not mine ;)

From that statement I concluded that you had further work to do on your configuration ....

Would this be the same in Mojave with a I7-3700K?

Currently the only way to achieve the OC is to turn off EIST in the BIOS and I wish to not do so?
Oh, snap. You are here as well. Very cool. EIST, I don't believe I have that turned off myself. And, my overclock to 4.5 GHz is working fine. Very stable and man does this computer scream still at Video Encoding. :)

This method stops speed stepping.

Overclocking in Mojave with EIST enabled in BIOS

Backup OS drive and EFI folder to back up drive.

EIST in BIOS set to auto

Load Clover Configurator and mount EFI, load config.plist
In Acpi enable "pluginType"
In Kernel and Kext patches enable "KernalXCPM"
Save config.plist

Reboot

This will allow overclocking and speed stepping with Overclocked values without need for SSDT. Can only confirm this for my MB and (say) parhaps other Ivy Bridge chipsets.

Hey, Westsurf. I just checked my BIOS settings on the Z77 machine and EIST is set to AUTO. The over clock is working fine though. Was this all you needed answered?
