here attaching correct config

replace it

config.plist.zip

 

Yes that slowed down all those symptoms but now acceleration seems to be a little sluggish. When I hit launchpad it takes about 5 seconds to pop up 5 more to go back to finder.

Also don't using a DSDT wit a radeon HD 5450 Patch because the config.plist  as a FadeID for the Radeon HD 5450

I removed the DSDT and acceleration is worse for some reason.

OK reput the first DSDT and use this config.plist

I remove FakeID in config :D

config.plist.zip

 

UPDATE: I put my original DSDT that I got from step4 of this guide and used your attached config.plist and still have the lag (5 seconds to launch launchpad, etc.). I have full resolution, it is just super slow.

 

Here are my current IOreg (RunMe) files since we were changing all kinds of stuff. I really appreciate all the help trying to get this old 780 shining again!

Send me Macs-iMac.at.net.zip

 

Here are my S/L/E files in case maybe they are old or modified (just thinking of everything):

MY SPECS:

Dell Optiplex 780 Mini Tower

Q9400 Core2Quad CPU

Sapphire 5450 1GB

maybe that's work ?

I just used KextUtility to install old kexts with no luck. I'm going to do a fresh install because it has to be something on my end as you really know your stuff! I'll update shortly. Thanks again for all the help, it is greatly appreciated! :D

UPDATE: I just did a fresh 10.13.6 install "just in case" something was wrong. I added the original S/L/E with KextWizard and used our latest EFI folder we've been working on and have same slowness. Resolution is fine and it shows proper ATI Radeon HD 5000 1024 MB in about this Mac. 

 

Any ideas, this thing is kicking my butt?

 

Here are my IOreg files:

Send me Macs-iMac.at.net.zip

 

And my current EFI:

I used Kext Utility to install S/L/E and this dang thing is still messing with me with slow acceleration. I'm going to try a 6450 next to see if i have better luck
