LILU + AppleALC + RehabMan's fork of CodecCommander work perfectly with no editing. That should be straightforward given the work Toleda has done. I ordered a Wifi chip for the M2 key on and will add that soon.

Nvidia Graphics Drivers from the tonymacx86 Download menu at the top of this page.Р”В®thernet works easily with IntelMausiEthernet. This gets me 5 ghz with working steps along the way: I created a power management SSDT using a PR on PikerAlpha's ssdtPRGen.sh script. I followed Rehabman's directions to create an SSDT to inject only the USB ports on the motherboard. USBInjectAll + XHCI-200 series injector in S/L/E

I added PikerAlpha's graphics patch to avoid Nvidia blacksreens. I added ROM/MLB from a macbook to make sure iMessages and text forwarding works correctly.

I did some cosmetic things (RAM slots, for example) and set the CPU ID to 0x0906E9 (I could boot without this but my graphics card was wonkey), used iMac 18,3. Native boot worked and I was off and running to get my live system set up.

It worked first try! I then used SuperDuper to clone the drive to my 950 Pro SSD, and then installed Clover locally and copied over all of my kexts. Then I downloaded the latest Clover, put a basic ist (the attached will work), installed FakeSMC, and booted into the drive. I just selected the external and installed it.

I used my MacBook to create a fresh install of High Sierra 13.1 on an external HD. All the ACPI/USB/CPU/Chipset settings can basically be left aone. The default BIOS settings are almost perfect to get started. I also overclocked my old 2133 MHZ memory to 2666 with no problem.Р”Р„ll the necessary files are in the attached zip. With a little tweaking, I was able to achieve a 5ghz overclock on the CPU (4.5ghz all core). Compared to the nitpicky work I needed to do with the X99, this was a relief.Р”Р„fter that I refined the ist, created an SSDT for USB following Rehabman's directions, created an SSDT for power management using a modified version of PikerAlpha's ssdtPRGen.sh, fiddled with overclocking the RAM and CPU. Once assembled, it booted in my first go using a lightly modified version ist from the 7700k machine. Moreover, this was one of the easiest builds I've ever done, and I've probably done 10 by now. The 6-core Coffee Lake looked too good to pass up, so for under $600 I picked up the i7-8700k with an Asrock Z370 Extreme4. I was annoyed at having to put extra work into getting an X99 machine which, in practice, was slower than a simple mini ITX build. I became somewhat disappointed with the machine when I built a 7700k mini ITX machine was faster for my use case: computer programming with a memory hot IDE and some virtual machines. The 14-core machine was a beast for multicore work but slower for single core stuff, which was most of what I used it for. Since then I'd been running an OCed 6850k (could only get to 4.3). I had been running an Asus Deluxe X99 platform for a while, first with a 14-core Xeon chip, which I sold.
