How to Fix OC Slow Boot speed with iGPU + dGPU

Graphics issues usually stem from an unsupported GPU, missing acceleration patches, or incorrect boot arguments.

Quick Fix Steps

  1. Verify GPU support: Check if your GPU model is natively supported in your target macOS version via WhateverGreen documentation.
  2. Update kexts: Ensure Lilu and WhateverGreen are current and loaded before other GPU-related kexts.
  3. Check boot arguments: Add -v keepsyms=1 debug=0x100 for debugging, or agdpmod=pikera for modern AMD cards.
  4. Test Metal support: Open About This Mac > System Report > Graphics and confirm Metal is listed.

Verification

  • Graphics acceleration is smooth (not CPU-bound).
  • Metal is reported in System Information.
  • No GPU-related kernel panics on boot.

My Build:

  • Asrock Z490
  • Intel i7 10700
  • AMD RX 5600 XT
  • OC 0.6.0 with 10.15.5 macOS

I have recently enabled WEG 1.4.1 platform-id 0x3E9B0007 with device-id 0x3E9B and allocated bios iGPU memory to 64MB.Now i can see both UHD 630 and AMD graphics in geekbench5 and hackintool, but the system now takes more time to boot compared to when i had iGPU disabled.

My question is weather the boot time latency is known issue compared to boot time with only dGPU.

Any suggestions are appreciated greatly guys. Thanks

I will update soon the actual boot times with stopwatch to get the exact time difference between two modes.
