Hi,
Well, after years i found a solution. I have the famous MacBook Pro 6,2 with GT330m (
0x0a29 model).
I discovered that this problem happens every time that g-state change between 2 to 0.
G-States go from 0 to 3, are related to the thresholds inside AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext, like this:
G-state 0 (maximum speed) and G-state 3 (lowest speed).
I solved the problem by keeping it always at G-State 2 (medium speed).
And the performance? Exemple: Cinebench, default (G-state 0) i've about 15fps, with g-state 2 (medium speed): 10fps.). Not bad.
If you want to try, these are the values changed in the info.plist:
<key>MacBookPro6,2</key>
<dict>
<key>LogControl</key>
<integer>1</integer>
<key>Vendor10deDevice0a29</key>

</array>
</dict>
<key>control-id</key>
<integer>17</integer>
</dict>
Perfect values? I do not know, but it is working for me.
Now, we have three methods to apply this fix:
1º Editing kext file and install manually;
2º Using the utility program called MBP Mid 2010 GPU Fix, that allows to fix the kext, using the parameters above described, automatically (credits [below] to
julian-poidevin);
3º Hardware fix. Read the next posts pages to know about that. Credits to
l.a.rossmann
1º Editing kext file and install manually:
Step by step:
1 - Make sure these .kext are original (unmodified), and loaded (About this Mac -> System Report -> Software -> Extensions):
- ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext (IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext)
- AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext
2 - Disable SIP (boot into recovery mode, terminal: csrutil disable)
Avaliable only in OS X El Capitan or later. Previous OS X versions, jump to next step.
3 - Open Extensions folder (System/Library/Extensions), copy AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext to desktop (or other folder), open the info.plist into editor (I used the PlistEdit Pro.app), and change the values like writing up.
Attention: verify if your model is 0x0a29 really.
4 - Save info.plist, quit editor.
5 - Use Kext Drop.app to instal this kext, but before, delete the AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext into extensions folder.
6 - (This is important step) Leave the automatic graphics switching select (System Preferences - Energy Saver), if you are using gfxCardStatus.app, same thing!.
After, reboot normally.
Remember, the option automatic graphics switching selected always.
7 - Open Console.app, type into search: gfx0 and check if g-state changes if working!
(or you can to download the kext already edited, below)
2º MBP Mid 2010 GPU Fix, utility program:
The friend
julian-poidevin, created an utility program called MBPMid2010_GPUFix, that allows to fix the kext, using the parameters above described.
The link to project is here :
https://github.com/julian-poidevin/MBPMid2010_GPUFix
You can download it here :
https://github.com/julian-poidevin/MBPMid2010_GPUFix/releases/latest
1 - Before, make sure these .kext are original (unmodified), and loaded (About this Mac -> System Report -> Software -> Extensions):
- ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext (IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext)
- AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext
2 - Run fix.
Good luck. I hope this helps you

Special thanks for
julian-poidevin for your work, really, this application was a good idea! We all appreciate it.
First off, I just want to thank you for the detailed information you have given regarding this common problem a lot of us are experiencing.
So here is a little background surrounding the problems I am experiencing.
-My computer runs fine during web browsing using google chrome, firefox, and safari utilizing web extensions like lastpass etc. It is only when I use programs such as imovie, or gimp and such that it will restart randomly and give me the famous "your computer was restarted because of a problem".
-It reboots quickly, and oddly at the login screen instead of having my desktop background showing with transparency, it will often just be gray/white but can login just fine.
-I ran disk utility (all was fine) and reset pram prior to all of this. (though I dont believe that matters)
-I decided to download and run Cinebench. I ran the "openGL" test and it failed after running for maybe 30 seconds or so.
This was the crash report I received after it restarted.
03/13/18—crashed during Cinebench OpenGL Test-ran through many of the test parameters before restarting.

So based on the information ive read here, I am going to assume that I have the same problem unless anyone can identify another issue from these reports.
So to get started with this I just want to be 100% certain before I jack it up somehow. (im not a tech head)
1) First - "Before, make sure these .kext are original (unmodified), and loaded (About this Mac -> System Report -> Software -> Extensions):
- ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext (IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext)
- AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext 10.13.2"
Im sorry, but where is the ACPI_PlatformPlugin.kext file download? And how do I add those to my software extensions?
-Do I just drag and drop?
-Do I need to use terminal?
-Or does the utility program do it all for me once opened?
2) Turn on automatic graphics switching inside of System Preferences - Energy Saver, if you are using gfxCardStatus.app.
3) Download, and run MBPMid2010_GPUFix utility program.
4) Complete?
I have read threw all threads over and over and still am a little unsure sadly. The utility program seems straight forward and simple to complete, though its the kext file placements that I am worried about. Possibly overwriting original system files and being unable to boot up after or something.
Like I said, I am no tech head though I try to learn as much as possible and greater my knowledge.
Again, I am sincerely grateful for all the community support on this matter, and hope it continues to help others.
Thanks!!!
