Notebook Very Slow Lenovo ideapad s145

[Guiviera09]

I have a lenovo ideapad s145 AMD Ryzen 5 3500U Vega 8 notebook with 2GB of VRAM, I created the EFI from scratch, using the tips in the OpenCore Installation Guide, I managed to boot on it, first I used Whatevegreen but it was impossible to install because it is very slow, now using Nootedred kext is also very very slow so I can't install because it is very very slow. Could you tell me how I solve this, if you want I can provide you with the EFI so you can tell me what I did wrong. sorry for the huge texts but unfortunately I have already looked everywhere but no one helps.

Make sure you're using the correct kexts for the AMD Ryzen 5 3500U and Vega 8, such as WhateverGreen and AMDRadeonX4100. Additionally, ensure your OpenCore configuration is properly set up, including the correct boot args (e.g., -disablegfxfirmware) and CPU/GPU optimizations.

WhateverGreen is the bad idea: The iGPU really requires NootedRed.

NootedRed then excludes the use of DeviceProperties.

 

"Computer is very slow" is excessively vague, and without your EFI we do not know what you have done.

You may get more help on a forum that is fully dedicated to AMD hacks.
