VoodooTSCSync/CPUTSCSync kext needed?

[rajovo]

I'm seeing this VoodooTSCSync kext or its AMD equivalent, for improved syncing of CPU/video/audio clocks. I definitely do have issues with like the Zoom app, with audio/video freezing or stuttering, whereas FCPX and other video apps work flawlessly.

Is the kext relevant for Ryzen 9 3900x Catalina OpenCore Hackintosh? Thanks!

EDIT: I guess not, the system doesn't boot with it

There is an AMD version of it and I've never had any issues with it. You can download the generator here: https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/744-voodootscsync-configurator/

Thank you! Does it actually help? Do you see tangible difference? I ask because I haven't seen the kext mentioned in any of the main howtos. I got rid of the Trulyspinach AMD power management kext as it doesn't do much (tested with a wattmeter), I'm trying to fix some of the audio/video/camera issues and I feel this is related to that. Thanks!

I'd say try it out and see what happens
