Hello, Many thanks for your work on the T460. I am looking into buying a refurbished one. But when looking into the specs of the offers, i see that they contain a i5-6300U Processor instead of a i5-6200U. Intel ARK shows me these differences (Sorry for the formatting)...

I already switched to Macmini8,1 because the MacbookPro Model always looked for a nonexistent TouchId sensor causing delays when authenticating. The -cdfon and hdmi2.0 patches are only for HMDI AFAIK. I am using DP. HDMI does not work at all. Also, my monitor only supports HMDI 1.4 -Heinrich

Looks good! How did you achieve this? Note that I have UHD 620, not 630. Strangely, your Device ID 1916 suggests you have a HD 520?

Sadly, this doesn't make any difference too. it seems I will have to settle with non retina modes. Right now, I am writing this on a machine with 4k/retina scaled to 1920x1080. Text is clear and crisp. On my new machine, 1920x1080 looks really blurred (on the same monitor). -Heinrich

Hi Zappy39, unfortunately still no avail. How much does the model id matter? Can I easily play with it? (See question in my 1st post) -Heinrich

Screenshot was incorrect, taken via Screensharing: MacOS seems to think it is connected to a TV set (hence 1080p). Image also suggests that. I don't know if this important. Note also, that screen mirroring is not available although there are two devices present. -Heinrich

Hi zappy39, thanks for your help. Unfortunately, it does not seem to make any difference. Resolution is still the same. As you can see, your patch *is* reflected in System information. Anything else that I can try? -Heinrich

Hi all, i managed to install Big Sur on my HYSTOU P05B-i7-8565U mini pc. The system is running ok, though a couple of issues remain: - Max Graphics resolution is 2560x1440, although i get 3840x2160 under Linux. - Also no Retina support - HDMI does not work at all, black screen upon GUI start -...

Hello, I got a NUC8i5BEK today and I am trying to boot from the installation usb stick. I followed the guide to the letter, but unfortunately the system hangs with: The Regents of the University..... MAC framework successfully initialized AMFLoadTrustedKeysFromNVRam: no nvram variable using...

Hi list, I am considering buying this machine: https://www.banggood.com/--p-1498946.html?akmClientCountry=DE&rmmds=category&cur_warehouse=CN i7-8550U HD 620 Any possible pitfalls? -Heinrich

Is it possible to get 4k@60 via DP? 64 MB will probably not bee enough for 4k?

I am now looking at a HP EliteDesk 800 G1 USFF - Core i5 4590T 2,0 GHz (128GB SSD / 8GB RAM) Does anyone know about its noise level? Possible to disable fans?

Yes, sure. By simply opening the iMac :| which I tried to avoid so far.. Teardowns can be found at ifixit.com.

I had this app already installed on my Late 2009 iMac, but for some reason the min values are 1000/1100/940 so I cannot really get the machine quiet.

Thank you for this hint. Maybe I can use it to calm down my 27" iMac. But, as you mention, it does not work on the Optiplex. And most certainly not in a VM :) I will return the 7010, revisit the whole project and maybe give the J4005 or J3355 a shot. Thank you very much for your help anyway...
