macOS Native CPU/IGPU Power Management

I followed the guide to the letter, but i ran to some probs => i've got some questions.
#1 I got an Intel i7 4790k
When i loaded AppleIntelInfo.kext a KP happened, is there any chance this to be fixed someHow so i can use the kext for extra info.

#2 My Cpu never goes to idle Frequency? Why?, Should i generate (and install) a 2nd SSDT with Piker's Alpha Script?

Notes: I use Clover, on an Asus Hero VII - i7 4790k - 20Gb 1600mhz Ram.

update: even i generated an ssdt with piker's script (using -x flag) cpu still doesnt go idle in any circumstances!

Sorry for the silly question but, should we set pluginType=0 or =1?

PluginType in config.plist doesn't matter as you will have Generate=false (or Generate/CStates=false, Generate/PStates=false)
PluginType is injected as 1 via SSDT.

Drop Tables/0 means that we should empty the defaults and leave it black?

Guide reads "Drop Tables/NO". It means you should not be dropping any CPU related OEM SSDTs.
 
I've followed the procedure to letter and it was a total success. A Big Thx to the mods!!

Thus ONE problem occured allong the way.
I tested the method in my Test disk -> Success in every possible way. (Ive been using TestDisk for all most 36h now.)
I decided to reformat my main Disk and clone the success recipe once more.
Everything looks fine except but the cpu this time never goes above 1ghz as in my testDisk.
Why?
I used the same BootableUsb, confing, kexts, ssdts everything.
 
Hi and thanks for the easy guide!
I think I did it right but the sleep doesn't work.
Before following this guide I already had a tiny ssdt suggested from another user that recognise my PM doesn't working (in another thread and while I was trying to solve another problem) but the sleep had never worked.

Usually the pc goes to sleep (all led off) and when I try to wake it up led goes on but no image on monitor and after 10 seconds it starts to goes to sleep and wake in loop (led of and on) and I need to keep pressed the power button to shutdown it.
Now after the guide it goes to sleep and when I try to wake it up as before led on but no monitor and after a while it doesn't starts the loop but simply restart.
Anyway the questions are:
Is now PM working?
Have any suggestion for sleep problem?

Thanks in advance.

All the files are attached in 2 separated zips (the one before the guide contain also the previous tiny ssdt)
