Yosemite installation working almost flawless except one problem [HELP]

Genty · April 18, 2015

My build: AMD FX 8150 + Asus m5a99x evo + Radeon HD 7850+ 16 GB RAM

After failing to make Mavericks work, I tried Yosemite and succeeded. Its working really well with full Graphics Support.

My only problem is CPU clockspeed.My CPU is always running at a high clockspeed due to which it gets hot very quickly. in just 15-20 minutes of normal usage it can get upto 60 C or even above that. I also run windows and Linux mint on same machine but it hardly ever gets hotter than 48 C on them with normal usage. I understand that CPU throttling might not work on Hackintosh but is there a way to downclock my CPU just on Mac without affecting its Performance on Windows and Linux?

I tried "busratio=7" bootflag. Instead of solving my problem it created one more. Everything speeds up in Mac using it (for example shutdown countdown runs twice the normal speed of time).

I have also tried SSDT from Rampage Dev's AMD DMG. It seemed to help, decreased my temps from 60-61 to 56- 58. But its still bad. I did not try anything else from AMD DMG, only the SSDT, as I do not want to break otherwise flawless installation of Yosemite.

Yes C6 state is also Enabled in BIOS. I am posting the screen shot of my SMbios.list file. I have tried enable "Generate the P-States and C-states in Chameleon Wizard. But it had no effect. :-(
