Smbios 15,1 ivy bridge Hardware Acceleration

hi,
I'm using opencore 0.6.4 and i followed the guide for ivy bridge and everything is working with the imac15,1 smbios !
Although there is one problem with the hardware acceleration doesn't work with the intel hd4000 + RX580!
Can you please tell me if i have to use another smbios or i just have to toogle something !
Thanks
 
Hi, my configuration is the same of yours. I will test to change my smbios to imac15,1.
There is one issue : the hardware acceleration won't work with this configuration ! I don't know why but some people changed to smbios macpro6.1 or imacpro 1.1 ! Thats why i'm asking is there is a solution to make the hardware acceleration and keeping my current smbios !

hello I have hardware similar to yours I think I'm going crazy with opencore while I boot fine with clover 5127 could you share the efi without serial? thanks

If you want but I have a z77 chipset ! So I don't fake imei ! I resolved my issue though it was just me being a fool and didn't activate the internal graphics and leave it to auto so it wasn't recognized ! Now all is good !

I have to pretend imei ... for the graphics where and what do you mean? thanks for your patience


I did as you said but I can't start ... if you pass me the efi in case I just put the imei problem and add the serial ... it should be iMac15,1 right?

Are you using clover or opencore ? If it's opencore you jsut have to follow the dortania guide ! Di you you do the same as on this website : Desktop Ivy Bridge | OpenCore Install Guide (dortania.github.io)
