by chance will this work on the blade 2020 advanc with the same cpu as your model but 1080p 300hz display and 2070s?

@carlosxfigueroa I can't see why not! It should work!

Hi, did you try it, did it work?

How is battery life?

carlosxfigueroa commented 3 years ago

Also I upgraded to the same laptop you have but the 1080p and booting the installer is impossible for me, it crashes half way trying to boot and i can’t figure out why

@steelbrain Have you got the laptop work in Big Sur?

steelbrain commented 3 years ago

@astro-lee-k I had to RMA my laptop due to some faulty dGPU stuff so I didn’t test it.

Opencore did not have a 4k laptop screen patch for BigSur back when I was hackintoshing, but I think it does now! So nothing should stop you from upgrading, you’ll have to make some modifications tho

Hello @steelbrain ,

do you have a full 120hz refresh rate? mine does not have.

steelbrain commented 3 years ago

@sanoj-m 4k 120hz never works on iGPU, even on Windows. The internal GPU connector does not have the necessary bandwidth IIRC.

Furthermore, there are no NVIDIA drivers for macOS. So you're stuck with iGPU, therefore stuck on 60hz :)

@sanoj-m Is the brightness control natively work on your laptop's screen?

sanoj-m commented 3 years ago

@shiecldk yes, mine works without any issue.

@steelbrain Actually i have seen the intel documentation max out 4k 60hz, but just want to confirm.

shiecldk commented 3 years ago

@sanoj-m Could you attach your original and/or patched DSDT? I have similar laptop but cannot get the brightness adjustment work. Thank you!
