How important is algrey - Force cpuid_cores_per_package patches?

First thanks for great work with this do-it-all AMD framework for OpenCore! I have been struggling with sleep issues. Now I wanted to update from OC 0.5.5 to OC 0.7.4 (big update!) and using your files worked great with only modifying config.plist with my values and the correct wifi/bt kexts for my m.2 card. On my Aorus B450 wifi ITX I already have done a usbports.kext but now sleep is finally working! My question is since I am using Ryzen 5 3600 how important is the algrey - Force cpuid_cores_per_package patches ? I changed the values to

B8 00 0000 0000 -> B8 06 0000 0000
BA 00 0000 0000 -> BA 06 0000 0000
BA 00 0000 0090 -> BA 06 0000 0090

My GPU is Radeon 560 4GB.
I noticed testing Novabench (MacOS 10.15.7) and god very low score, 1554 with CPU Score 374. 6 Last year I had 2400 (macOS 10.15.3) with CPU Score 1306 . So I wondered if that is because the cpu patches above are wrong?

I tested with Geekbench 5 and got these results: S-C-1254 and M-C-7620. That seems more normal. Is NovaBench having trouble maybe?

Hi,
algrey - Force cpuid_cores_per_package patches tells macOS how much cores your CPU has. Also your patches looks good for this CPU. Probably NovaBench has some issue, I never use it so I can't tell much about it. Test with Cinebench - Imo it's best benchmarking tool and works good on Hackintoshes. Then compare with result of your CPU from Windows or find some test on network. Remember to compare result between same versions of Cinebench (use latest one).
