Hi guys,
I recently build a hackintosh with the following specs:
Intel Core i7-6700T (so HD530)
ASRock Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming-ITX/ac
Noctua NH-L9i
Crucial CT2K8G4DFD8213
Mini-box picoPSU 120
Intel 600p 512GB
Azurewave AW-CE123H
I use a 4K monitor: Dell P2415Q
I installed Sierra on it and applied patches, so now I have everything working, except for one thing: I cannot get HiDPI to work for resolutions above FullHD (1920x1080). I can use native 3840x2160, but that is too small for me, and 1080p HiDPI, but that is too large. So I would like to add like 2304x1296 with HiDPI, but I can't get that to work.
I have been able to manually add resolutions using SwitchResX, as well as using a custom config file from this generator: https://comsysto.github.io/Display-...or-with-HiDPI-Support-For-Scaled-Resolutions/
So I have successfully added 1792x1008 HiDPI and 2304x1296 (low resolution), but not 2304x1296 (HiDPI).
I also connected my monitor to a late 2015 iMac 21.5 inch using displayport (monitor) to mini-displayport (iMac), and HiDPI above FullHD worked just fine without any modifications at all. Maybe it would work on my hackintosh as well if I connected it using mini-displayport, however its motherboard does not have that connection. Perhaps I could try a displayport to usb C adapter to make it work?
I tried everything I could find but I can't get it working, so help is greatly appreciated. Attached is my display config file that should in theory work (I think).
