Regardless of the amount of monitors the Turing series of Nvidia GPUs aren't supported on macOS.

As for CPU name grab RestrictEvents to rename it to your AMD CPU.

Ah, this is my first dive into all this, I normally do android development. So learning all this. Ill google the RestrictEvents. I have it, Im assuming I need to edit it?

Side note, this is the first time Ive done anything with Apple software.
 
Is it loaded in your config? @AudioGod What was the ProcessorType for higher core CPUs again?

I actually started this project for a friend who has pretty much of the same hardware, although looking at the plist, it looks to be a mess and not anywhere what I need.

Apple CPU identifier must be 0x0F01(3841) for 8 core CPUs or higher and 0x0601(1537) for 1, 2, 4, or 6 cores.

It shows correct processor now but it says there's only one processor with a total number of eight cores. I really appreciate everybody taking the time to help me out but it's really kind of you it's not like the Android side of things where people generally are just always in a bad mood

Yes that's correct. macOS will show the physical cores only.
 
You have your kernel patches setup incorrectly. Change the cores_per_package patches from 08 to 10 for a 16 core.

Yeah so that's base64. If you look at the first patch it's uAgAAAAA which in hex is b8 08 00 00 00 00. 08 is wrong. This should be correct.

Glad it's working now. Hope you've not setup iServices yet as you've shown the Serial Number there...

I have to be honest with you. Im a Recognized Developer and (retired) Moderator on XDA. I can do Android all day long, I have 0 clue what any of that is. Im assuming, you mean the pictures. I deleted them.
 
Yeah the system serial number was in the pictures. If you've got working iMessage etc and someone else uses them it'll mess it up and you'll need to redo it. Complete pain lol

Ive been an Android dev for almost 12 years. Never had anything iOS. No accounts or anything. I use all google stuff. But its good to know.

Again, I thank you all for the amazing hospitality here. Im very grateful
 
I was a yes to macOS no to iOS guy for years till I switched to an iPhone last year. XDA saved me from bricking my phone a good few times lol

No worries. The forum is always here if you've got any more questions (y)
