sakoula Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Hi! I have the following configuration * HP EliteDesk 800 G2 TWR * MOBO HP 8053 (U3E1) * Intel Core i7 6700 @ 3.40GHz Skylake * GPU: Integrated: Intel® HD Graphics 530 with (2) DisplayPorts I am trying to make the HD530 to work and I 1. Increased the memory of the video card in the BIOS to the maximim available 512MB (gave me a KP with the default option which was 32MB) 2. installed the HD530 'patches' on the config.plist of clover the following: * `Graphics > Inject Intel` * `Graphics > ig-platform-id 0x19120000` * `Kernel and Kext Patches > 10.11-SKL-1912000-4_displays` 3. the last thing I did was to apply the glitch fix as it is described [here](http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/317551-glitch-fix-for-skylake-hd-graphicsupdate/) 4. `SMBIOS` is configured as `iMac17.1` (was testing it with `iMac14.1` but saw no difference) Now when I rebooted during the boot process I get the following message (using -v) just before I get to the UI: ~~~ IG: HE PCI ACPI device not found - PAVP services will be disabled - add IMEI to EFI / ACPI device list IG: Called when FB is in a non-wake State in getAttribute - attribute: 1734298985 IG: Called when FB is in a non-wake State in getAttribute - attribute: 1734298985 IG: Called when FB is in a non-wake State in getAttribute - attribute: 1734298985 IG: DRMStatus - iTunes/Apple Store Content Access Problem.

The same computer under windows 10 performs much better giving approx 60fps. Same applies for [LuxRender](http://www.luxmark.info/) Given the message I see when booting, and the performance difference, is the HD530 working with full acceleration or not under OSX? I have been using one monitor connected through the display port Thanks a lot for your help!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sakoula Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 Hi, I have not received any answer on this. But just in case someone refers to this post in the future However I was reviewing my benchmarks and it gives: * Geekbench Windows GPU = 21500 * Geekbench OSX GPU = 19300 * CineBench Windows GPU = 55 * CineBench OSX GPU = 28 * LuxMark Windows GPU = 2550 * LuxMark OSX GPU = 1900 So: * GeekBench in OSX show 90% of the performance in Windows * Cinebench in OSX show 50% of the performance in Windows * Luxmark in OSX show 75% of the performance in Windows So I assume that it is ok since the support of the HD530 is not as good as in Windows Thanks!

Hello sakoula, Dionusis here Indeed it seems that there's difference in Benchmarks between a number of GPUs (including AMD & NVIDIA), and it all comes down to driver implementation.

Ramalama Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Cinebench: i5-6600 / HD530 = 28.17 fps 2 things: OSX openGL support is very bad. HD530 is not well supported... Cheers :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
