Hi, sorry for opening another thread. :(

As the title says, the CPU idles at maximum frequency. I have tried to generate SSDT with ssdtPRGen.sh, same problem.

Code:
kextstat|grep -y acpiplat

You can clearly see a problem in your kextcache output with AppleHDA...

Also, remove unnecessary software:
com.bitgapp.eqMac2Driver
etc
(do a fresh install if necessary)

Check Activity Monitor for processes that may be using CPU resources when you don't expect.
 
Restored original AppleHDA and then patched it with aDummyHDA.kext. Looks okay now, but never goes below 2Ghz for long time, and the package's power consumption is around 6.5 - 7W, sometimes rarely 6W according to HWMonitor, it was 5 - 5.5W before using aDummyHDA.kext. Tried to remove the kext, not worked. Is this normal behaviour? That software is an equalizer app, tried without it, same problem. Also checked in activity monitor, nothing uses CPU so much.

Your kextcache output proves kexts are not installed correctly.
All kexts you need must be installed to the system volume.
Read post #2 of the Clover guide for details:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

I didn't check anything else.
 
I always install kexts with Kext Wizard, then repair permissions and rebuild cache.
 
I always install kexts with Kext Wizard, then repair permissions and rebuild cache.

KextWizard cannot install to /L/E.
See FAQ for correct procedures.
 
Thanks a lot again, deleted kexts from /S/L/E/, and installed to /L/E/, i don't know what is the difference, but it's now perfect.
