@quangtrung
I need your help. I need to redo the DSDT.aml. I upgraded to a i7 3770 but the machine still thinks its i5 processor.


Please point me in the direction of how you compile the DSDT.aml.

the 14,4 smbios is extremely fast, tried switch to macmini6,2 very slow compared to 14,4.


Dont forget I'm still using Catalina!
Can i have your EFI for i7-3770?
Can boot OC on my 9010
 
the guide is on post 1
Thanks for your reply.
But when i use the EFI in The guide you mentioned OC is not booting, when I replace it with my patched SSDT's i get black screen with " not optimum resolution "

Thanks.
 
Same here... any more advice? Thanks!
