If you are seeing 25.50 at Core Req you are using the right one :D it wouldn't reach that level otherwise.

 

To see your actual Max Freq there which from the pic seem to be 3.8GHz you need to change the replace string to C1E308B8 00260000 31D29090 ( 26 instead of FF => 26 in HEX is 38 )

 

But I recommend you to try my other method that I just posted instead of performance patch. 

Thank you latze, I am learning how PM works on X99. It is very interesting. I will try your method with CPUFriend and see what results I get. Are both kexts generic or specific to your CPU?

 

My CPU is a Xeon E5 1680 V3 Haswell

 

Could I use them directly in combination with Lilu Kext?

 

Thank you.

Kexts will work on any CPU, but I don't know how well depending on the model, hence the testing :)

 

Yes, you can use them in combination with any other kexts, just place them in clover kexts/Other

Hi

I am wondering how you can add the kernel patches to opencore config.plist. Can you help me, please? Thanks

Hi, @laudou

Sorry. I don't use Open Core. But some kernel patches that i used in Clover was firstly realised in Open Core and then transmited in to Clover(kernel patch for locked 0x1AA). Also Open Core has built-in solution for locked 0xE2 MSR, so both this patches have built-in realisation in Open Core and just need be enabled in OC config.plist/kernel/Quirks

XCPM Patches 10.15.5 Beta  Modify By N.Mano  X99/X299

This is New Method.

X99/X299 System If Add bootstrap patch You have to Add original CPUID like this.

                        Original CPUID

FakeCPUID         0x0306F2        Haswell-E

FakeCPUID         0x0406F1        Broadwell-E

FakeCPUID         0x050654        Skylake-X

FakeCPUID         0x050657        Cascade Lake-X

 

I don't see any difference 10.15.4 and 10.15.5 beta please test this patches for 10.15.5 too.

Thanks for your support.

Hi, I've just migrated to OC from Clover and have everything up and running (x99 UD4, 5820k @ 4300, Vega64), but am having the same issue as some of the other people on this thread. In order to get full performance I need to have the PMDrvr.kext installed. I've tried pretty much everything from all over the forums. I even have CPUfriend installed, patched and made all the necessary ssdt's but the scores stay the same, about 30% lower with the kext. What am I missing in order to get the same performance without this kext? - any suggestions?

 

All related pm plugins are loading correctly through quirk AppleXcpmExtraMsrs and the corresponding kexts and ssdt's. Anyone is welcome to use this OC setup for their GA-UD4-X99 board. Don't forget to generate a proper System Serial Number in PlatformInfo. Everything appears to work properly in Mojave as well as Catalina. EFI.zip

 

Another question I have is that through all the different configurations that I tried multiple cpu entries for the same cpu, 4 to be exact, have appeared in my ioreg. Is there any way that I can delete these, or is this something that I shouldn't worry about? Thanks!

Tried your files out. The ssdt-EC is not recognized and I had to disable AppleCPUPMCfglock as it disabled my c3 states and fully functioning PM. But either way, it still kept my benchmarks as they were. It's as if the OS is not recognizing the overclock. It gives scores as if the cpu is running at stock speeds. PMDrvr pushes all the cores to max turbospeeds when the cpu is rendering, but I can't get this result without it. But at least the temps are where they are supposed to be instead of constantly fluctuating between 40 and 60 when the computer is idle. thanks for the input pitrysha. 

 

On a side note, did you have any difficulties getting your xeon to run on opencore? I'm thing of picking up a 2697 v3. My last effort with a xeon 2690v3 on Clover didn't get me anywhere and had to send it back.

I have no problem with Xeon .

Here I look at many with your processors that something is wrong .

yeah, hackintoshes with xeon are usually not overclocked so everything works as it should. It's the ones that overclock that have problems getting their speeds to be recognized by the os. I wonder what we can do? You think implementing the performance patch in OC would make a difference?

If you read the Open Core thread starting from page 90-100, they discussed these problems there and sort of solved them, that is, everything should work for you without XСPM patches, as I understand it.

True, xcpm works in OC without the patches. What I am looking for though, is for a way to have the OS read an overclocked CPU (-maybe it's just an issue with Haswell-E?). I just did a benchmark at stock specs (3,4Ghz) and effectively, the scores are identical to my systems benchmarks running at 4,3Ghz. I remember there being an XCPM Performance fix that was implemented earlier on (High Sierra?) and was wondering whether a patch in that direction could help us on our way to getting our systems running at its full potential. So far I have tried pretty much everything I found around the net, including diabling eist, installing and configuring cpufriend, ssdt's but nothing has helped up to this point. Except for PMDvr.kext that is. But I don't like how that affects my wildly fluctuating temps.

And through the BIOS, what does not suit overclocking?

Thanks Pitrysha, are you suggesting that I need to look at the settings in my bios? It's a gigabyte mobo, -any suggestions as to what settings I could try? I ticked the automatic overclock to 4,3...

Thanks pitrysha. went through the guides, tried your files, same results. Maybe I should simply admit defeat and use the pmdrvr.kext when I need my system to run at full performance... Strange though.

PMDrvr.kext is not recommended. 

CPUFriend.kext + CPUFriendDataProvider.kext try this option.

Set the maximum factor in the BIOS.

If it does not work out, then I have no more options.

Seriously appreciate your effort! Remains one final question, do I need to paste the included plists into X86PlatformPlugin.kext?

Ready-made kexts with frequency characteristics. But you can make your own.

Thanks, tried and didn't get anywhere. I'm throwing in the towel. Thanks for all your efforts! I think I'm going to pick up a used 2697 v3 which will keep me from overclocking. My latest attempt at installing a xeon brought me no further than a hang at pci configuration begin. This was on clover with the pci patch from Brumbaer implemented. Do you have any of those patches running on your setup or will ticking IncreasePciBarSize do the trick on OC?
