macOS 10.12.6 Update

My build updated successfully, but post-update needed a little work:

1. As an nVidia card is in my system, I had to change the required build. However, the method here did not work for me. Instead, I, ultimately, copied the kext out to the desktop, opened the Info.plist with XCode, made the required change (set IOKitPersonalities -> NVDAStartup -> NVDARequiredOS to 16G29), saved, installed kext via KextBeast (got the "improperly installed" error - ignore), and restart. This was done post-update, however, pre-update should work fine.
2. The update installed fine with no issues - I did not change any Clover configuration settings yet.
3. Post-update, I removed the FakeCPUID (Kernel and Kext Patches), disabled the Y-Tile fix (Devices ->Add Properties), changed the ig-platform-id to 0x59120000 as per here, and set the IntelGFXID to 0x59128086 (EDIT: Is this the correct ID?) as per here. InjectIntel remains TRUE.

EDIT: My benchmarks seem to have decreased - from 6567/23563 to 6493/23531 in GeekBench 4

Hi. 10.12.5 user here. Noticed that audio may give some trouble. I am using VoodooHDA. Any tips for me?
 
Tell me, what is your model iMac?

I have the same processor Core 2 Duo, and model 10.1 late 2009 (I thought this is the maximum that supports my configuration)

Now I want to put a more recent model.

Thanks

iMac 14,2, you need to have a core2duo that have SSE4.1 instructions

Reporting with RX580

The good: Support out of the box without any kext modifications! Still need helper card though.
Neutral (only for 5K displays): I have to inject framebuffer Guariba, 5K not working OOB
The bad: Performance is a lot worse however. Luxmark is reporting about 3000 points, before that it was around 12000. Luxmark also reports low clock speed with only 300 MHz, it was 1150 MHz in 10.12.5
Other benchmarks also have suffered, so it's not a cosmetical issue.

did you use hckrnvmefamily-10.12.6 .kext or 10.12.5? because the new one is not updated yet so can you confirm if it works without the new patch?
