EDID causing performance issues

ASUS P7P55D E-Pro, i7, RX560 4gb, running mojave 10.14.6

Ancient I know. It’s my home server, running emby media server (used to be Plex and then they borked their downloads and I left).

Anyway - moving house in the next few weeks so I’ve packed my stuff up, taken monitors away and put an EDID on this machine so it’s got a sensible monitor size to vnc into.

Ever since I’ve put the EDID in and disconnected monitors I’m suffering on playback on larger files via emby - playing on Apple TV from this emby server - stalls after 5 mins or so. It’s fine on 23 min sitcoms, but if it’s an hour long show it’ll just stop.

Any advice/knowledge on EDIDs and similar issues?

Do I need SSDT-GPI0?

So I made a working hackintosh and during acpi making for my laptop, it said to make an SSDT-GPI0 post-install so I didn't bother with it and didn't make it, also didn't make ssdt-xosi.

Now that I have installed macos AND my trackpad works should I bother with it? What does it do? Only enables the trackpad? And is it only for i2c buses?

As much as I could find out, my keyboard and trackpad are connected with PS2 connectors. At least that's what I could gather from booting into linux.

Optiplex 5040 Skylake no hardware acceleration

Core i5 HD graphics 530

macOS Monterey

Attached is a picture of all the relevant settings so maybe someone can spot what im missing, ive been reading and re-reading the Dortania and Whatevergreen guides and checking my info.plist, EFI folder to see if im missing something and i cant figure it out, that is unless OpCore-Simplify has a bug and didnt build my EFI folder correctly.

I built my EFI using OC-Simplify, using iMac17.1 as SMBIOS for installing Monterey. after a few hicups related to my BIOS settings i managed to install Monterey and now i have it running from the hard drive with the only issue remaining being i have no GPU acceleration, on "About This Mac" it shows as only 7MB of VRAM, CPU model and speed are detected correctly, but in system report under Graphics i see "no kext loaded", attached is a picture of the EFI folder i have in both my hard drive that boots directly, and also the one i used on the USB Monterey installer.

From what i see in the config.plist that OC-Simplify built for me, it is spoofing a Kabylake CPU even tho i selected Monterey as the target OS version, however, if i use ProperTree to add the correct Skylake platformID, deviceID and framebuffer values that correspond to my Core i5 6500, then the OS boots but my mouse and keyboard stop working, so i cant check if now i have hardware acceleration, i dont know what else to do, if anyone has any hint i will be thankfull.

Is there any way of putting macOS on these two laptops?

Two laptops are wondering about are latitude e6520, which has an Intel core I7-2720qm, a legacy bios, and a Samsung 256 GB SSD.
The other one is a touf gaming F 17 with Intel core I seven 12700H I believe, a UEFI bios, and an SSD that shows up to Linux mint as a micron one terabyte. The Dell Laptops audio is IDT according to Windows 7 drivers, and the Wi-Fi adaptor is Intel based.
The Tuf gaming laptop real tech Sound card and Intel wireless card.
I was just curious about these since I have them around here.
