macOS Native CPU/IGPU Power Management

Just FYI, If I choose imac18,1 instead of 18,3 and use the method in the OP, I don't get proper management at all, to compare with earlier posts, also, if you set to imac 18,1, you get screen glitch on boot and on sleep (I tried both as igpu and gfx0). Both do not occur with 18,3. 18,1 also had did not go down to 0.8ghz. In the meantime, my normal configuration still does iGPU P-States [ 2 5 21 (27) ] if I run everything at the same time (2x opengl benchmarks with HEVC decoding simultaneously)

Ok, If I run 18,1 again for some reason I will drop an ioreg. I just wanted to let you know in case somebody has a 7700k processor and are running 18,1 and their P states are off, suggest trying 18,3.

in 18,3 though:
IGPU pstates still extend beyond 21 in, do you think it's a Appleintelinfo rounding bug? Intel Power Gadget log never exceeds 1149mhz Here is the raw data from Inter Power Management Graphed (sheet 2)
