@CaseySJ When trying to copy, then rename, there was already another config.plist already present and thus did not allow me to rename. Did this occur being that I needed to copy and rename with a plist editor ? Can't you just rename or delete the old version and then copy the new one and...

Thanks Casey! I had a few questions regarding the above linked Radeon guide (apologies in advance for all the questions, I like to try and think ahead):
1. As this is a new SSDT is this likely to break sleep? The reason I ask is because the only way for me to get 100% fully working sleep (with the machine not awakening randomly and going to sleep after 3 mins) was to apply your power management fix straight after a fresh install. The fix was in the first page of this thread:
Code:
cd /Library/Preferences
ls -l com.apple.PowerManagement.*
Code:
sudo rm com.apple.PowerManagement.*
2. I’m guessing as a worst case, if I apply the aforementioned Radeon SSDT in the Radeon mini guide, as well as the new kext, I can just run the above power management command again?
3. As we’re already on version 1.4 of this fix, assuming some time down the line there’s V1.x, if we find that has broken sleep, or something else, is there a simple procedure to roll back to the previous SSDT/kext, or do we have to restore from our Casey mandated backups?
4. How will a noob like me know when to upgrade from V1.4 of the kext to say V1.5 etc? Should I follow the thread you’ve mentioned on MacRumors and TonyMac?
5. Lastly, I haven’t got Netflix working on Safari yet and am going to run the fixes. Should I do that after or before I apply the new Radeon mini guide changes?
P.S. I’ll also run some Geekbench 4, cinebench and brute tests before and after so we can get some metrics going! I’ve also seen reference to OpenCL, Metal an GFXbenchmark tests that can be carried out. Is there any other tests yourself or anyone else would like me to try? I’m dual booting windows so don’t mind doing them there too to compare
