MSI GE62 6QD - Catalina 10.15.2 + OpenCore - _almost_ everything works!

It's easier to say what doesn't work:

  • Trackpad (dunno why, you tell me)
  • Intel WiFi (obviously), you better replace it with a Broadcom m2 wireless card (easier than you think)
  • 4K HDMI: First of all, 1080p over HDMI works flawlessly. But 4K is a pain, no image, no sound, it's better to use the mDP or the Type-C.
  • 960M, insert Linus Torvalds thoughts about them.
  • Didn't try SD port or CD drive (this one because it's broken lol)

Here's the setup:

The MSI, has some dust from yesterday haha :P

4K screen connected via mDP, it's more like retina 1080p and that's comfortable.

Specs:

  • i7 6700HQ
  • GTX 960M - will NEVER work
  • 1080p 15.6" screen
  • 16 GB DDR4 memory
  • 250 GB SSD
  • Replaced Intel 3165 with BCM94352Z, AC too
  • Removed the HDD, maybe another SSD.

I will share the OC config.plist if anyone is interested (censoring some parts obviously).

P.S: App Store and the rest of Apple services work!
