No, I don't need a dedicated gfx-card. The HD4000 integrated into Ivy Bridge 3770 will do for me, as well as for many others. I thought I'd share the little I know about how to get it to run actually. Depending on your hardware this may or may not work - it works perfectly fine for me. Okay, let's get started by dumping some lines of DSDT:

			Device (MEI)
			{
				Name (_ADR, 0x00160000)
				Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
				{
					Store (Package (0x02)
						{
							"device-id",
							Buffer (0x04)
							{
								0x3a, 0x1e, 0x00, 0x00
							}
						}, Local0)
					DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
					Return (Local0)
				}
			}

I've got a H67 Chipset here, so I'm using device MEI to change my device-id from 3A1C to 3A1E.
Otherwise AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB.kext will block AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext.

			Device (IGPU)
			{
				Name (_ADR, 0x00020000)
				Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
				{
					Store (Package (0x0C)
						{
							"AAPL,ig-platform-id",
							Buffer (0x04)
							{
								0x09, 0x00, 0x66, 0x01
							},
							"device-id",
							Buffer (0x04)
							{
								0x66, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00
							},
							"vendor-id",
							Buffer (0x04)
							{
								0x86, 0x80, 0x00, 0x00
							},
							"subsystem-vendor-id",
							Buffer (0x04)
							{
								0x6b, 0x10, 0x00, 0x00
							},
							"subsystem-id",
							Buffer (0x04)
							{
								0xea, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00
							},
							"revision-id",
							Buffer (0x04)
							{
								0x09, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00
							}
						}, Local0)
					DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
					Return (Local0)
				}
			}

AAPL,ig-platform-id was the key to get the HD4000 kext's to load. No go without it. Lastly you may want to modify AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext. I'm using the macmini5,1 definition, so this is my edit:

<key>Mac-8ED6AF5B48C039E1</key>

   <key>IGPU</key>

Good luck!

Cinebench R11.5 is around 23fps with 12A256 btw.

This sound promising. I am planning to buy the gigabyte GA-Z77-DS3H with i5-3570K do you think it will work at what are the strings I would have to add?
Not a total noob (god a acer AOA150 running and fully working with 10.6.6) but now i would like to upgrade my desktop PC.......and run Lion and soon Mountain Lion.

Hi,iv got core i73610QM 2.3 Ghz ... i didn't need to change nothing on DSDT.aml to load AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext ... Also it loads the AppleIntelHD4000Graphics.kext AGPM not loading.... no qe/ci at the moment.....

Hey!

I've got i5-3570K, GA-Z77X-UD5H, injected HD 4000 successfully as described above, but still no qe/ci .. I guess it's cause the AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext makes trouble at startup (or rather doesn't get loaded):

.. any idea? It loads AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext btw

[McDan]

I have a Z77X-UD5H too, but with a 3770k - can you point me in the right direction to apply the instructions above? I couldnt really see where in my DSDT i was supposed to make the edits to add the IGPU device (its not there at present)

I understand that it doesn't result in qe/ci being enabled but is a step forward at least. its the only thing left for me to get working on this otherwise great setup.

Cheers

[wollvieh]

if the IGPU device doesn't appear in your DSDT, it's just named differently (like eg GFX0), I think you should rename it (and any appearance of course) to IGPU, since it seems to be the name, Apple uses for internal graphics

[iHackintosh_PT]

I take back my words... iv reached full QE/CI on IntelHD4000 Core i7 3610QM..... REALLY THANKS FOR YOUR WORDS....

[McDan]

Really?? - This is big news!! any more details could help me out?

[iHackintosh_PT]

Really... it was all about one device-properties string on org,chameleon.Boot.plist iv used ( ig-platform-id: 01660003, Stolen RAM for FB: 64MB, Pipes: 2, Ports: 2, FBMem: 2 ) from the topic of Wollvieh .... i can post mi entire string and then you just need to try all those combinations only changing the last number .... first i tried 01660009,but gave me a black screen... second try, buummmmm... QE/CI .... iv just changed the 9 to a 3 .....

[Taruga]

Can you post your dsdt.aml ?

[iHackintosh_PT]

Yes, i can post my DSDT, but i didn't changed nothing on the dsdt.... it was all about this simple string generated with gfxutil.app ( thank´s to Oldnapalm ) and to artur_pt for his help also .... proteinshake for his tip.... respect to all of you......

Hi, I have the same board as you, can you post your dsdt ?

[wollvieh]

@Taruga: you actually don't need one, it works fine with bios version F8, I only edited it to rename Device GFX0 to IGPU .. anyway, here you go: http://www.sendspace.com/file/e7it6d

[iHackintosh_PT]

This is all about just a simple efi-string...i dont no where are the supposed GURUS ..... but like always, peopple came here to pick up information on how to get it to work,and then they will post on those crap forums saying that its they work.....

[dta]

I can confirm that this works. Tried it on my MSI Z77A-G43 with i7 3770K and ig-platform-id: 01660009. I did this using EFI string injection. Will do some more test on what is actually needed and what not.

Update:
OK, there's actually nothing more needed than this simple EFI string ... no DSDT or whatsoever. Thank you so much for figuring this out!

[wollvieh]

@dta: would you share your EFI string? I'm still stuck (KPs, funny stripes, ...)

edit: got it! works for me now with this one:

ig-platform-id: 01620005, Stolen RAM for FB: 32MB, Pipes: 2, Ports: 3, FBMem: 2

Your platform ID does also work on my board. I think using your ig-platform-id: 01620005 is a better idea because 0162 is actually the desktop chipset which has a variable clock rate from 650-1150 while the mobile chipsets (0166) have a clock rate from 350-1300.
As proteinshake pointed out it might be neccessary to edit AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext.

[wollvieh]

yes, also mobile ig-platform-ids didn't work for me at all .. (and I edited the AGPM kext, don't know if it'd work without that)

[Taruga]

I have a GA-Z77X UD5H and a GTX 560 TI, with the EFI string I got to the desktop UI, I could check that the AirPlay to Apple TV showed up but didn't had time for much more because it panics. Is it possible to have both HD4000 and GTX 560ti enabled ?
