Guide:

1. Read, learn, and understand the Dortania's OpenCore Install Guide and this Reddit post.

   • Setup follow Comet Lake Configs
   • SMBios used MacPro7,1

2. My ACPI Table:

   SSDT	Method	Description
   SSDT-AWAC.aml	Manual	Required
   SSDT-EC-USBX.aml	Manual	Required
   SSDT-GPRW.aml	Prebuilt	Required for Sleep/Wake
   SSDT-HPET.aml	SSDTTime	Optional
   SSDT-PLUG-ALT.aml	Prebuilt	Required
   SSDT-SBUS.aml	Manual	Optional

   Note: I recommend to manually dumping your DSDT and compile your own SSDT. You can use SSDTTIme (Windows) or MaciASL (macOS).

Fixing & Tweaking:

• Fix Sleep/Wake:

  • SSDT-GPRW.aml

  • ACPI > Patch change Method (GPRW,2,N) to XPRW, pair with SSDT-GPRW.aml

  • ACPI > Patch Change ADBG to XDBG:

    TableSignature	OemTableId	TableLength	Find	Replace	Count	Enabled	Comment
    53534454	475357417070	0	4303141941444247	4303141958444247	1	true	Change ADBG to XDBG

• Fix High CPU Usage after Wake:

  • Kernel > Quirks > AppleXcpmCfgLock [Disabled]

• Disable Radeon Zero RPM (Optional):

  • Just follow this Github guide
