Support for AMD FX #117

Open marvelloard opened 3 years ago

I know it's an older platform, but it would be very helpful if you could include support for 15h and 16h processors. They run macOS using OpenCore, but but right now there's no PM available. FX8300 user here ;)

Technically there should be no problem for one to develop a kext supporting them. However, I do not have any pc with those processors thus I can not test and have no motivation. If you can develop or know someone who would interested in doing that it would be great. There’s many documentation out there available for those models.

Thank you for your response. I'm not a developer and don't know anyone with the capabilities. But I would be able to do testing on my FX machine. I'd even pay a bit for development. Maybe others too?

I guess we need to create a AMDFXCPUPowerManagement.kext for the FX family...

If there's ever be a support for FX family we probably need a 'big rewrite'(refactor) of the main cpp class, should not be too much work. As long as someone with FX processor are willing to develop and test.

I gave up on my AMD hack.

Just want to note my interest in FX support, currently running an FX-6200 here. Would be available to test whatever, if you would consider making a version for AMD FX CPUs.

No worries if this isn't possible though 👍
