Project mention: [HELP] Dell latitude 7390 2-in-1 DSDT's and other problem. | reddit.com/r/hackintosh | 2022-01-10
Dell-specific DSDTs - Does anyone have a list or repo of up-to-date Dell-related SSDT/DSDT/ACPI files to share? I used https://github.com/daliansky/OC-little and its translated version too but these are very old n irrelevant to my machine. I couldn't get the sleep working using these obsolete/irrelevant DSDTs. Please feel free to share better or new ACPI files if you see some obsolete files in my ACPI folder.

Project mention: Dual-boot Mac/Win Hackintosh - Slower performance on MacOs | reddit.com/r/hackintosh | 2022-02-07
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

Hello there! I wanted to install macOS High Sierra on my Ryzen-powered PC. I used this OC config: https://github.com/mikigal/ryzen-hackintosh And when I selected “Install macOS High Sierra” it got stuck at there: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/415562092138070018/972779352913772574/5C3B333C-0CF7-4E4B-9E08-9F1F7623CFCB.jpg

Project mention: Finally got it! Monterey (12.3.1), WiFi, Bluetooth, Audio on Surface Pro 7 - my other post was removed for "Distributing EFIs" [description in comments] | reddit.com/r/hackintosh | 2022-04-21
It's very complicated to set up and there's a guide here: https://github.com/profzei/Matebook-X-Pro-2018/wiki/Enable-BIOS-Secure-Boot-with-OpenCore. I forgot to save my EFI keys so now I can't revert back even if I wanted to.

For another version, the Laptop just freezes. The keyboard and mouse aren't working, the progress bar stuck. I tried some other EFI's too, like this one from gnodipac886 with CLOVER bootloader..

one-key-cpufriend
Generate customized CPUFriendDataProvider.kext for dynamic macOS CPU power management
Posted links to what I used in the description. I kind of 'cheated' by using CPUFriend and CPUfriend dataprovoder, which I've never used before. I'll add a screenshot to the post of my EFI. Almost feel like the whole config is sloppy/dirty at this point, and I should start over again now that i know what to do.
