Hey there!

I am setting up a new hackintosh on the following hardware using OpenCore and Catalina 10.15.4:

* i5 6500T (HD 530)
* Gigabyte GA-B250-HD3P - https://www.gigabyte.com/at/Motherboard/GA-B250-HD3P-rev-10#kf
* M.2 SSD, 16 Gigs of RAM (4x4) and no dGPU

Installing it worked pretty quickly after tweaking some OC settings according to the Skylake desktop guide. Now, I went on to patching the framebuffer. I used Hackintool to create the patch, then inserted it into the OC config. About This Mac shows 2048MB VRAM, all animations seem pretty fluid.

Only got two issues:
* External 4K monitor is not working - max. res is 2K, also scaling (f.e. 4K resolution but scaled to look like 1080p) is not an option.

* The DVI connector is not working. I patched according to the framebuffer guide, which (IIRC) stated that DVI should be marked as type HDMI. If I connect it up to the second monitor, it doesn't work. I can't plug it in directly, tho. I need to use a DVI-HDMI adapter, since none of my displays have DVI.

Any ideas? I've attached my OC folder below. Thank you so much!

I finally fixed the scaling issue, it seems like. Need to test this long-term. No glitches so far, 4K is working, scales like 1080p, so scaling is fine too.

These are my settings for now. You can copy and paste them straight into ProperTree, this is CMD + C from the PciRoot... line.

DVI and (probably) VGA are still not working, I will work on that tomorrow.
