When you want to know in which SSDTS you should rename GFX0 to IGPU you can use this command in terminal: "grep -l GFX0 *.dsl"
Same goes for B0D3 to HDAU: "grep -l B0D3 *.dsl" and remove _DSM methods: "grep -l Method.*_DSM *.dsl".

( The terminal commands are copied from RehabMans Disable GPU guide )

You can also use Clover hotpatches to make renames: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Clover-Laptop-Config/blob/master/hotpatch/
i have already renamed GFX0 to IGPU.....

Not possible to know what you're doing wrong. No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting"
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.164990/

Make sure your EFI/Clover has ACPI/origin.
attached thanks
problems remaining:
hdmi audio (unable to patch each other ssdts 0 changes in maciasl)
ssdt cpu (panic)
some cosmetic acpi error at boot about _L68 method _L67 method not implemented
readed all guides but i'm stuck

GFX0->IGPU:
Your ACPI/patched content as far as GFX0->IGPU is correct. The only two files with GFX0 references were DSDT.aml and SSDT-1.aml. You renamed in both (as per guide).

HDMI audio:
- ioreg shows no HDMI device plugged in
- no expectation of HDMI audio without HDMI audio device
- may require FakePCIID_Intel_HDMI_Audio.kext

CPU PM:
- MacBookPro13,2 will enable HWP
- you probably have locked MSR 0xe2
- you are missing required KernelToPatch for xcpm_idle
- panic not surprising...
- use MacBookPro11,1 or add xcpm_idle patch

Other:
- SSDT-12x.aml should not exist in ACPI/patched (as per guide, all dynamic SSDTs are excluded from ACPI/patched)
- USB WiFi not recommended
- USB not implemented correctly (UsbConnector values seem wrong)
- both _L68 and _L67 are in your DSDT (not enough information provided regarding the problem)
 
- SSDT-12x.aml should not exist in ACPI/patched (as per guide, all dynamic SSDTs are excluded from ACPI/patched)
removed
- USB WiFi not recommended
compatible card is coming :D
- USB not implemented correctly (UsbConnector values seem wrong)
I know but for now I don't care

- you probably have locked MSR 0xe2
i don't know but AsusAICPUPM is already enabled
- MacBookPro13,2 will enable HWP
HWPenable already flagged in clover configurator
- you are missing required KernelToPatch for xcpm_idle
added in kerneltopatch
after i've copied SSDT-pr.aml to inject plugin type 1 in clover config,
setted PLimitdict=0, dropped ssdt PmMgt table
powernap now is showed in battery saver prefpane...
What else should I check to be sure that powermanagement is ok?

You should.

i don't know but AsusAICPUPM is already enabled

Not applicable to your hardware.

HWPenable already flagged in clover configurator

Not needed with HWP enabled SMBIOS choice.

added in kerneltopatch

Now HWP with plugin-type can work correctly...

setted PLimitdict=0, dropped ssdt PmMgt table

Not necessary.

What else should I check to be sure that powermanagement is ok?

Test with AppleIntelInfo.kext.
 

The results are as would be expected with your i5-6200U.
Note that your profile is inaccurate as it states i3-6200U.

You could get lower idle states by editing the frequency vectors in X86PlatformPlugin.
 
is normal that AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement and
AppleIntelCPUPowerManagementClient aren't loaded?

Yes. They are not used on Haswell and later.
 
i want to check verbose bootlog.... i read that in sierra some things are changed ther is a way to get e simple verbose log....?
In older versions, I simply checked the kernel.log file that seems deprecated in sierra i've readed all logs but nothing related to boot

This thread is linked from the FAQ.

Definitely both are required reading.
