If something like that happens again, we'll move heaven and earth to fix it.

IIRC that was before the site upgrade to Xenforo forum software. We all had to re-sign up/in again.

Both (our and iMacPro1,1 native) gave ±same results but our vectors have HVP enabled and 800MHz lowest frequency.

@vit9696, Indeed, welcome to the tonymacx86 Forum.
A massive concur! Thanks you for the work you and the Acidanthera group did on OpenCore. I'm about ready to upgrade my 2010 Mac Pro from Mojave to Big Sur with OC. What you guys have done is...well, wonderful!

Dear @vit9696 , massive thanks indeed for all the work you and the Acidanthera team have done with OpenCore and, most critically, its invaluable documentation. 
You likely have been doing some overtime with Alder Lake, and are possibly still working hard on it. But I hope you'll find some time to share some knowledge about the way XNU initiate processors, and how SSDT-PLUG-ALT works. Obviously (and from the comment in the code), XNU does most of the job on its own from MADT and relies very little on declarations in DSDT/SSDT. (Apple Silicon reportedly does not use ACPI at all.) But I'm flabbergasted that SSDT-PLUG-ALT makes no reference at all to the processor Device() in DSDT. Presumably that means XNU cannot make use of any of the processor methods defined in ACPI, including the many methods for the control of processor states. How does that eventually work?

Well this happened sooner than expected...The side panel glass peel will be removed only once macOS is running P+HT+E
I Love this community, Thank you for everyone involved!
This is by far my most exciting build, and will last for years to come hopefuly.
