Might be a good idea to add that when resetting the ec, it will reset your dvmt pre alloc to stock.

Usually BIOS settings will reset only if you remove or disconnect the CMOS battery.

I am trying to make the i2c driver of the laptop work. I have patched the dsdt with I2C Controllers (SKL), GPIO Controller Enable (SKL +) and Windows 10 Patch of the voodooi2c repository. This is what I think I need to run the trackpad and the touch screen (which I think use the same driver). Thanks.

Your question should be asked in the I2C thread, not here.

@RehabMan just asking this for my knowledge, If a Nvidia GPU is hardwired to the HDMI port, we can get it working under macOS after installing the web drivers and removing the fake properties or ACPI patches, right?

Coz lately all the new laptops (gaming) with 10 series graphic cards seem to have HDMI tied solely to dGPU stead of iGPU.
