Well, I went through and generated a whole new SMBIOS and changed all those settings in the config.plist. I did log out of iCloud so no problems there. In ProperTree I do still have ig-platform-id set to 3E980003Just to double-check: Was the Platform ID entered in reverse byte order, like this: 0300983E?
It is possible to experiment with a new System Product Name, but we should proceed with some caution, like this:
- Log out of Apple ID from System Preferences --> Apple ID --> Overview. This will ensure that a new product does not get registered to your Apple ID.
- Then simply change System Product Name from iMac19,1 to iMacPro1,1 and save config.plist.
- Reboot.
- Perform as many tests/benchmarks as you like in order to determine whether iMacPro1,1 makes any difference.
However I DID go into my bios and disable the iGPU.
The GeekBench scores are higher in metal, but handbrake doesn't use the dGPU RX 580 currently to do any type of transcode so I think I still have something wrong somewhere. The tool vdaDecoderChecker says I'm good...
One thing i did notice is that the I still have the igpu listed in the config.plist
PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0)
