Pascal running Sonoma

Thanks to some optimistic people in this community, I have managed to boot Sonoma with my unsupported gpu. The process is easy, add boot args as standard, for this one you also need to add one additional, actually you need to change an existing one which is agdpmod=0, set it to agdpmod=vit9696, if you add it on the end it will not work. Then restart pc, reset nvram, use oclp to patch it, restart, reset nvram, and it should boot without a black screen. Since it is non metal, everyone says Chrome and WhatsApp don’t work, for me they work perfectly fine. Only issue I can report is slightly lower fps when operating between windows and on homescreen, if somebody has a fix, that would be a truly perfect build. The true issue that could be correlated to gpu is xcode simulator, it works but it is very slow and practically unusable, maybe due to my weak gpu, maybe due to the non metal install, idk. Anyway, if someone has a fix for slightly lower fps, that would be awesome. Thank you.
