Hello MaLd0n but this always 100 % CPU Speed Is Going to Kill my CPU on the Long Run...!?!? Please Let me Know...!!!!!! under Mojave this problem do not exist....!!!!!????

1- there is some set on Bios to avoid this constant 100 % CPU usage...!?

2- Found CPUsetter.app maybe could help to solve the problem of 100 % CPU..!?

Dear MaLd0n Good morning......This EFI of  yours it's Very Near to let me install Big Sur on my Hp Z440 workstation but after all the verbose menu when should  be seen the white Apple it's ALL Black and nothing Happens....Maybe is my unsupported Gt710 on Big sur that cause this problem...!?!? There is some Code to Add in config.plist to let me complete installation...!?!? Please if there is a way to do so I would very much appreciate your help....!!!!!!!!

Have a Good Day ...!!!!

1 - Im going to add : NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext on the kext of your EFI and try what it happens..waiting your reply if u like to do....!!!!!

2 -tryed to use the working kexts on OLD EFI Install Catalina working but is always no white Apple No block on Verbose dialog but when should show the white Apple is all black...!!!

In case was the vga what Video card should I use...!?!?

1 - I dont chew much about hackintosh ,Google and Olarila MaLd0n are all my knowledge...Actually tring this :

sudo launchctl limit maxfiles 65536 200000

read on Macforum there are others Catalina users having problems of Freezing....!!!!

2 - installed Barrier.app on Osx Kvm under Linux helps to solve problems of audio....!!!! U never know it could help......!!!!   

3 -  I've tryed to Update All the kexts on the actual running good booting EFI like Lilu, Whatevergreen,VirtualSMC,XHCI-unsupported but seems to boot well but when there should appeard the white Apple it's ALL BLACK !?!? i thought Updating Kext would help to solve freezing but gives me this problem...!!! what a Mad World of Hackintosh...!!!!

4 - Remember the last EFI U gave me to Try !?!? I have tryed again but dont know WHY unable to Boot my Hackintosh setup of Bios is always the same !?!?  but sometime before it worked and have tryed to update to Big sur completed all the process and at the moment toenter in  Bigsur i was back in Catalina again saying dont remember what problem happened....!!!! Have U another EFI to try...!?!?

On MOjaveno one of these problems but i keep searching if i do find a Fix

WITH EFI MaLd0n Black screen all verbose working but No WhiteApple showing.

I took My Working Booting Freezing EFI Olarila and make many modifications:

<key>Boot</key>
    <dict>
        <key>Arguments</key>
        <string>npci=0x2000 dart=0 -no_compat_check alcid=1 -v -xcpm -cpufbeta watchdog=0 -hbfxoff UseKernelCache=Yes serverperfmode=1</string>

Then I opened my config.plist with cloverconfigurator and SETTED with the same values from the latest No Booting EFI of Maldon but leaving as iMac14.2 NOT MacPro1.1 otherwise wouldn't boot neither IF I SETTED as iMac14.4 NO BOOT...dont ask me Why I Do Not Know !!!!

Then added the  CPUfriend.kext and CPUFriendDATAProvider.kext from one-key-cpufriend.command and still Freezing.... Then DELETED VirtualSMC.kext and replaced with FakeSMC.kext and this Last but Not Least TRY Make THE MAGIC.....From this Latest TRYing My Catalina IT IS NO FREEZING ANYMORE....!!!!!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
DEAR MALD0N I REMEMBER TO HAVE USED YOUR EFI(now no booting)and even tryed to update to Big Sur but no success but only after have done all the process of Installation....IF U ASK ME WHY I DONT KNOW I haven't changed Bios Settings IT'S A REAL MISTERY...Can U Find an Answer to this !?!?!?
HAVE EVERYONE A GOOD DAY AHEAD !!!!!

Have a Good Day Everyone !!!

In order to obtain more No Freezing protection possible I installed on /Library/Launchdaemons the file : com.private.maxfiles.plist  which gives me automatically at every boot this : sudo launchctl limit maxfiles 65536 200000

Have updated all possible Kext one by one but I can't update Lilu kext to the latest version because this give me Black Screen at Boot....!!!!

Im also using Volta 1.2.5 .app that in mode performance make my intel xeon go from 2.3 mhz to 2.6 mhz not always but when Max Speed of intel xeon reach 2.6 mhz on windows10 reached 3.1 mhz.....!!!!

Most Of The Freezings That Still Happens Is When I Use FIREFOX with Safari do not Freeze....!!!!

Please MaLd0n have some suggestion.... I tried to update to the latest version of Clover but IM sorry unable to boot always Black Screen....Ok always searching with Google but every mackintosh hardware is another story.....much much trouble and every update is even more trouble....Apple Poisoned don't want u do mackintosh work Good....

Please MaLd0n give me an answer to This :

I cloned my Mojave Olarila to another SSD then copied your modified EFI on EFI SSD and this time Booted as happened not far away....the CPU is showing always at 2300 mhz and now Im upgrading to Catalina with this EFI.....Im asking the CPU showing always at maximum speed 2300 mhz of my Intel xeon E5-2670 V3 it's dangerous for Life Health of the CPU...Can I Use the PC in this way without problems.....Please Let me know---!!!!!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Dont Know why using the same EFI on the SSD of Catalina do not boot and stay all Black Screen...!!!!!!----> I cleaned on this SSD all Kexts and copied the ones on the fresh installation of Catalina and updated the EFI partition with the latest EFI MaLd0n and Catalina Boots Good.....these Hackintosh are really a mistery.....Very Thks 4 All but waiting if this always On max speed 2300 mhz could give problems is Intel Power gadget that give me this data.. !!!!

Hello MaLd0n !!! Even with your latest EFI Catalina keep Freezing....!!!!.....If U have a solution...there is another issue but I dont know if it is Normal ..... my Nvidia GT710 do not give acceleration  with VideoProc...is it normal could help U to find a FIX....!?!?

Updating to the latest beta U never know it could get worser less likely to solve problems but dont have nothing to lose....

Im going to look for rx560 0r +..!!!

because on the verbose Boot there were messages  about CPU Not Supported i Added on on EFI/Clover/Kext /Other :

CPUFriend.kext
CPUFriendDataProvider.kext

created with CPUfriendfriend and then Rebooted Payed Attention and seems not have seen CPU unsupported message al Boot seemed a little faster.... Tryng and so far NO Freezing.....Intel Power Gadget reporting always constant 2300 mhz but I believe it's some bug of this app  as U can see from the photo down....Hope to have much much better stability with this Fix....Ill let U know after some trying.... Im on the latest beta version of Catalina.

Configuring as iMacPro1.1 and iMacPro7.1 No Success..... INSTEAD as Xserver2.1 seems to be going Good...Ill let U know after a more prolongated Try.....it's the configuration more similar to my hardware.

Hello MaLd0n and Everyone !!!

With smbios Xserver 2.1 it's all good SO FAR......Im connected with a IDApple could they by remote do some code to give me problems of Freezing.... is it possible...!?!?!?

[MaLd0n]

ok but u stay with no hevc/h264. not good

With firmware Xserver2.1 is quite Stable but Not Total Free Freezing.....Tryng now using the original Quadro Nvidia K2200 4 gb GDDR5 because my Nvidia GT710 is DDR5 but not Kepler DDR3 and so U see better the colors but acceleration = 0....It's just a TRY and See So Far with the light theme it's a little worse  with the dark mode there is no difference but for the moment No Freezing Keep Trying.... For the RX560 I must see if my HP Z440 workstation support it. with Power because " Alimentatore of HP" is not Good...... Happy Day at Everyone...!!!!!

[startrek]

Hello MaLd0n one little question !!!

Im on Hp Z440 workstation with Catalina and Mojave on another SSD but Nvidia GT710 2gb is recognized but when i open VideoProc there is = 0 acceleration from the Nvidia....Is it Normal !? Should I enable some quirk to obtain a little hardware acceleration...... on Mojave and Catalina is the same...Please if U have a Fix let me know...have googled but found no working answer for my hardware....Have a Good Day Ahead.

Latest "Try and See" : from Mojave runned : Olarila Repair and rebooted , then with Hackintool created a Patch and added in the right way to config.plist in the right way that Clover configurator accepted without telling Error....Then Updated to Catalina to the latest version and Now Im trying how it works with Freezing...so Far all Good...!!!!
