Genty Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 My Yosemite installation is almost fully functional except my (Non overclocked) CPU is constantly running on a high clockspeed which results in it overheating (Getting upto 60-61C in 10-15 minutes usage). This does not happen in Windows 8.1, 7 and Linux Mint 17.1 all on same machine. Is there a way by which I can set a constant lower clockspeed of my CPU only in Yosemite without affecting it in Windows and Linux? Or is there a way to enable cpu throttling in Yosemite for my CPU, like AMD cool n quite feature? My System: AMD FX 8150 Asus m5a99x evo AMD Radeon 7850 16 GB RAM Additional Info: 1: I have tried Rampage Devs SSDT from his AMD DMG pack, it brought my temps from 60-61 C to 56-58 C but Its not enough. 2: No hardware monitoring apps show my CPU ID or its temp/ clock information. About this Mac shows My CPU as Unknown at 3.61 ghz and thats it.

Genty Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 hello give a read here http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/296460-amdcpumonitor-and-hwsensors-331/ good hack I have read that but there are two problems, 1st I cant download those files shared by the OP of that thread and second they are hardware monitoring apps, they are useful and I want them but my main concern is lowering CPU clock speed. But can u repost those files shared in that thread so I can download them, if u have them?

zerking Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 speed step for AMD on hackintosh is simply impossible :-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/305752-how-to-manage-amd-fx-cpu-clockspeed-in-hackintosh/#findComment-2129355 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Topic moved for the right place. This section is for development only, no problems with Hackintosh.

Genty Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 speed step for AMD on hackintosh is simply impossible :-) But having a lower clockspeed like 2.0 ghz instead of 3.6 ghz, exclusively for Yosemite , is that possible?
