That’s only needed if you want to use AptioMemoryFix.efi, and were previously using EmuVariableUefi.efi (or whatever it’s called). The above commands remove the files that store the values read by that driver. I do recommend using AptioMemoryFix as z170x-ud5 TH supports native NVRAM.

For more info see:

Hmmm interesting. It seems aptiomemoryfix might be deprecated. I’ll investigate.

EDIT: R27 is last release of AptioMemoryFix for Clover.

EDIT 2: Clarity.

I have flickering issue on my Dell Monitor P4317Q 4K connected directly HDMI to HDMI

Intel HD Graphics 630:
Metal: Supported, feature set macOS GPUFamily2 v1
DELL P4317Q:
Resolution: 3840 x 2160 (2160p/4K UHD 1 - Ultra High Definition)
UI Looks like: 3840 x 2160 @ 30 Hz
Framebuffer Depth: 30-Bit Color (ARGB2101010)

I use latest Clover, I tried different SMBIOS: 17.1, 18.2... 19.1 but without any lack, flickering is just extremely annoying
Could someone advise me what I can to do?

This could also be applicable: There was an HDMI 2.0 Firmware update for this board if you haven't already updated it. It fixes support for 4K@60hz over HDMI. THEN I also recommend Lilu+Whatevergreen.
