Hi again, Mr.Spakk! I tested kernel "27 August 2015 - Bronya - kernel_10.10.3_rc1" from your post. My CPU work fine, score in geekbench higher than on Mavericks 10.9.5. But sometimes I see some freezes in system animations. In cinebeenck my graphicscard (GTX 650) get 41-43 fps. I tried to start AGPM, but I can't find note about AGPM in console. Sorry for my english (I'm from Russia), and I hope that you understand me. My graphicscard use "WebDriver-346.02.02f03" form http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/301416-nvidia-web-driver-updates-for-yosemite/.

Thanks for the review, I'll check that.

glis83 Hi! :) I've tried to use voodoopstate.kext and no success, maybe you could make some video, where you can show what did you do, to make it work? It would be nice if you do that, and if you upload voodopstate.kext, because I think I could use wrong one and of course if you have a free time to do all this. I'm sure that I doing something wrong. I've read, that for make it work there should be removed some other power management kexts but which one? That's the question. And I read something about AppleHPET.kext, should it be removed or something? And then again, if it will not work, then it's ok, I actually don't need power management, everything is working fine without it, like I said earlier, I don't have much time for experiments. That't the problem:

 

 

the frequency is false but works very good ;)

:shock:

 

woh !! 

 

the win10 is very fast on Parallels 10 /Yosemite 

 

look the video :http://www.sendbox.fr/a64e23a4f9078d33/dossier_sans_titre.zip

Thank you very much! I'll try this kext, and report here! And I will watch your video soon!

 

upd. Yes it's working, but like you said with false frequency. But the result is much better, cpu frequency is closer to real one. And still i feel that performance reducing with that driver little bit. Again thanks for that driver! :)

upd2. Nice video! What did you do, to make parallels work on amd? On my mac I have only two crashing apps: parallels/vbox, like in everyone else I think... Which version of parallels did you used?

how important are these info? if it's wrong, the CPU could be either under or overclocked? thank you

If you have those values false, then your hackintosh may work not correct, some apps can crash, especially when you try to boot into system, it can't boot at all or boot with some problems etc. That's why it's so important!

Guys, i'm on Yosemite 10.10.3 using this kernel :http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/461-amd-kernel-yosemite-10103-sseplus/

 

What i have to do to make VoodooPState working? I saw you were talking about it

After Updating to 10.10.4, using Package 10.10.4, VoodooPState cause KP, i have to delete it

 

Using other Kernels (I've tried kernels in the topic kernel release (http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/285580-database-of-current-working-amd-kernels/page-4?do=findComment&comment=2165205) , bronya doesn't boot, kernels from y2k4u boot but voodoopstate show only 800 and 1000 mhz, the other kernel still not tried)

works good for me with voodooPstate and kernel Bronya 14.3 :)

I prepare you a video capture 60 fps 12 Mbit / s 1080p SF 4.5 to show you the image quality, the sound is perfectly synchronized, the kernel Bronya really works very well.

Spakk linked to this JUST ONE PAGE BACK...

 

Here you find the current kernel. Test each one of the three kernels and reports.

27 August 2015 - Bronya - kernel_10.10.3_rc1

P.S, in to bootloader has Bronya added pseudo code "disable c1e" if in bios enabled c1e! - this now works sound without squeaks !

TEST sound with this boot_c1e_amd ! This version 2715 ! this is only beta, created by Bronya ! )

more details on kernel and boot files see here:

Hi ! about your VoodooPState problem, I've been struggling with it with former kernels, until I noticed it was v1.0.4 that was not working with my AMD (only 800Mz options). Using v1.0.3 solved the issue. I'll test bronya's latest kernel ASAP.

 

Now Bronya kernel works (i had to put boot in efi) But still problem with voodooPState!

Hey guys !

 

Sorry for the dumb question but I will soon switch from Chameleon to Clover on a new mobo and would like to know how to specify and where to put the AMD kernel ?

 

I tried (on a test mobo which I don't have anymore :P) :

 

kernel=AMD and placed the amd kernel at the root of the drive but no way.

 

And what about the EFI partition/folder ? Is there a place where Clover look for alternative kernels ? This is for the installation step and I can't figure how to boot on the AMD kernel. Therefore, I can't install anything and for now, I'm forced to use Chameleon to reach install screen…

 

Thanks :D !

Place kernel into root of OSX partition, name it "mach_kernel.amd" and write into boot-args

"Kernel=mach_kernel.amd"

 

One time I saw that the name does matter. The first symbols must be "mach_kernel..."

I was sure you name the kernel kernel and put it in /System/Library/Kernels for Yosemite

EDIT: Nevermind I saw that you said to add a bootflag to load it.

in relation to the VoodooPState.kext .... I think that the problems be solved by booting with the SSDT.aml. According to instructions on the rampagedev website, rampagedev describes how you can generate a SSDT.aml. there are the P-state and C-state values determined and generated in the SSDT, ( how-to create a SSDT ) or I understand something wrong? ^_^

 

Spakk, that applies to Intel CPUs only, not to AMD.

 

Tried, nothing change!

 

:)

 

look ;)

 

my speed native CPU is true (8320E) but o/c is false but works good :)

 

 

Hi! Can you post your VoodooPState.kext? Another user told to use a different version, but version 1.0.3 doesn't work  :(

Yes, .. Hervé.... I have seen until now. i am sorry. :blush:

but rampagedev has created a suitable SSDT.aml for me that I use, he has a lot of SSDT's created for various AMD boards in to the AMD.DMG.
