mrjayviper Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 (edited) Having issues with the CPU performance of my Hackintosh (2x E5-2650L 1.8Hhz | turbo: 2.3Ghz - 64GB ECC DDR3). On Cinebench, Windows CPU score averages around 1350 while on OSX, it's 760. There's a noticeable difference in rendering speed of the test image between Windows vs OSX. On Geekbench, OSX suprisingly beats Windows by about 1k points on multi. But on single, OSX scores is a a bit more than half of that of Windows. I've tried these kexts for CPU power management: - patched AICPM from Herve: https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/10066-vanilla-and-patched-high-sierra-kernels-patched-aicpupm-kexts/?_fromLogin=1 - patched AICPM from rampagedev (it is available on his dual CPU.dmg) - NullPowerManagement The Cinebench/Geekbench scores are similar for all 3 kexts. I've added a zip of the files (config.plist/DSDT/SSDT/kexts/AppleIntelInfo) I'm using. Thanks for the help! some links: link to my setup files: mega.nz geekbench results OSX run 1: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/8686465 (Single: 1172 | Multi: 13241) OSX run 2: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/8686589 (Single: 1210 | Multi: 13569) Windows run1: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/8686863 (Single: 2079 | Multi: 12563) Windows run2: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/8686913 (Single: 2082 | Multi: 12800) cinebench results OSX Windows Edited June 16, 2018 by mrjayviper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavo Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Are you using the E5-2650L v1 or v2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavo Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 13 minutes ago, Hervé said: Clearly v1 Sandy Bridge EP. Stated specs say "E5-2650L 0, 8 cores, 1.8GHz with Turbo boost to 2.3GHz"... Just wanted to clarify, I was having performance issues also with Sandy Bridge and upgraded to Ivy Bridge now no more performance issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You appear to have the correct kexts and ACPI tables (SSDT), so all looks Ok on that front. I would only suggest you try dropping the following additional tables in the ACPI section of your Clover config: I'll try your suggestion in dropping those 2. --------------- If using unpatched AICPM, I get kernel panics and instant boot loop 3 solutions/workarounds: - use a patched version - use nullpower - delete aicpm from SLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks anyways! Appreciate the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
