NootedRed VS SMCAMDProcessor

Mainly this https://github.com/PIut02/ROG-Zephyrus-G14-GA401-Hackintosh. It has all the necessary reference repos. I needed some extra features, followed below repos. To make somethings works - https://github.com/ChefKissInc/NootedRed https://github.com/jwise/HoRNDIS https://github.com/b00t0x/ROG-Zephyrus-G14-GA402-Hackintosh

Is my machine hackintoshable? Tried it a few times with https://github.com/NootInc/NootedRed but ran into many problems like my previous posts: https://www.reddit.com/r/hackintosh/comments/13wgswi/stuck_at_registered_coreanalyticshub_functions/

What works: - CPU power management using this kext. Battery life is not great, but I haven't checked what can be done to improve it yet. - USB tethering from an Android phone as a workaround for having Wi-Fi since iOS only allows to do USB tethering with mobile data. If you need it as well, check this kext out. - Hardware acceleration thanks to NootedRed. - iServices. - Built-in speakers. - All USB ports. - HDMI video. - Ethernet. - Keyboard. - Trackpad.

That's an AMD system right? I'm pretty sure you can with NootedRed

Follow dortania guide and place nootedred files to its related folder and make your own EFI

Not natively, you should use nootedRed (https://github.com/NootInc/NootedRed), with macOS Big Sur or Monterey. If you don’t mind having graphic acceleration disabled (and then a very sluggish OS) you can try a normal installation, since your problem is not your processor, but your gpu.

Builds are always in the Actions tab. This is the one I used

Actually I have made 3 hackintoshes before using the vanilla guide. So I do have the knowledge and know what I’m doing most of the time. The RTX isn’t supported yes but the ryzen mobile CPU recently got supported. See: NootedRed

Do you have supported graphics? do you need https://github.com/NootInc/NootedRed

Sleep works, there's an AMD power management kext https://github.com/trulyspinach/SMCAMDProcessor

If you install https://github.com/trulyspinach/SMCAMDProcessor you have the same telemetry as you would with Intel.

AMD ryzen power manager, SMC AMD processor

This isn't true, trulyspinach has a power management kext for AMD that brings performance to pretty much being identical to Windows with the Core Performance Boost feature. Or you can just force the CPU into the P0 state. https://github.com/trulyspinach/SMCAMDProcessor/releases

I've tried playing around with the SMCAMDProcessor, but not had any luck. This is same with Cinebench
