macOS Sierra and High Sierra - Gigabyte GA-X99-Ultra Gaming i7-6850K

    macOS Sierra 10.12.3 working well on Gigabyte GA-X99-Ultra Gaming i7-6850K
    My graphics card its a gtx 1080 g1 pascal. and its not working since apple have no pascal support yet!
    Here it,s my EFI for Clover and Extra for Chameleon Enochhackintosh-forum.de/attachment/37070/ :danke2:

    Your CPU is not working yet! Your benchmark values are relatively low.


    The i7 and 4,2GHz work on Geekbench 4 with more than 24000 Points

    DaTec. 4,2GHz its only in clover ..it,s cosmetic thing. My cpu run just on stock 3,6

    I Compiled and loaded the. AppleIntelInfo.kext. Can anybody say if it,s this ok with my power management ?

    Welcome to the Party Pal, I have the same CPU and currently working on this..


    if you followed the guidelines of metacollin I can assure you it's somewhat not working as @MeO-Style found out as well.


    Feel Free to Post Progress here, you can follow mine over here: Link

    Nice! Good to know that I can safely upgrade my 980ti to a 1080(ti) in the future.


    @sygey did you get that PowerManagement working? Mine crashes on loading the SSDT that was generated with the ssdtPRGen.sh script.. I'm still testing/trying new Stuff but I'm also very pleased with the current results.

    I changed the plist. The machine its stable, an running very smooth .

    Well it´s nice to see that there is progress in getting XCPM to work on X99 Plattform Builds :thumbsup:

    Haswell, Notebook

    First of all let's not forget to thank all those who are involved in these projects, which give us the chance to run macOS on PC. Thank you once again for everything!



    1) BIOS configuration ---- a--Load Optimized Defaults


    b---overclock your pc to XMP profil 1 4,2


    After you install later you can revert back


    2.) Create Bootable USB --- Download the latest version of MacOS Sierra by performing the following actions:


    a) Delete any version of the MacOS Sierra installer from your "Applications" folder if older versions of the installer exist.
    Go to the App-Store, and download Sierra.


    --- Prepare an USB thumb drive with Disk Utility with the following options:

    ---Type in a Terminal the following command:


    sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/USB --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app --no interaction


    USB mean your tumb drive name


    This will take some time


    4.) Download and install the latest Clover distribution on your USB-DISK by verifying the proper Install-location (USB-DISK) and customizing (dont press "Install" but "Customize" instead) the following options:


    a) Install for UEFI booting only
    Install Clover in the ESP
    c) Select the Bootloader Themes you want to install
    e) Only select EmuVariableUefi-64.efi in the Drivers64UEFI menu!


    During installation, Clover will automatically create and mount the EFI partion drive of the USB installation.


    3.) When Clover Installation completes, download and copy the "USBInstallEFI.zip" file and replace entire EFI Folder of your USB installation drive.


    4.) Boot the USB Installation drive . Install MacOS Sierra onto your system.


    5.) Now perform the Post-Installation procedure described below. After finish boot again with USB and select your new instaled hard drive with sierra and finish the process.


    --- Download and install the latest Clover distribution on your Sierra system disk by verifying the proper Install-Location (Sierra System Disk) and customizing (don't press "Install" but "Customize" instead) the following options:


    a) Install for UEFI booting only
    Install Clover in the ESP
    c) Select the Bootloader Themes you want to install
    d) Enable Install RC scripts on target volume
    e) Only select EmuVariableUefi-64.efi in the Drivers64UEFI menu!
    f) Select Install RC scripts on target volume
    g) Select Install Clover Preference Pane


    During installation, Clover will automatically create and mount the EFI drive of your Sierra system.


    6.)Download my ( PostinstallEFI.zip) extract and replace entyre EFI folder from your Sierra hard drive.


    7.) Download and run Piker-Alpha's freqVectorsEdit.sh to add missing FrequencyVectors. Clone download chose zip


    after download, drag the freqVectorsEdit.sh-master folder to your desktop, run terminal and type sudo (space) after this drag


    the freqVectorsEdit.sh from folder freqVectorsEdit.sh-master in to terminal, hit Enter, flow steps below.


    --- To do so, you have to choose some other plist-file from the drop-list, like e.g.


    Code (Text):


    [26] Mac-DB15BD556843C820.plist (iMac17,1)


    which does have frequencies already defined.


    Result:

    Please choose the desired plist for your hardware (Exit/1-31) ? 26
    in your case maybe imack17,1 well be another number
    Triggering a kernelcache refresh ...


    Do you want to open Mac-F60DEB81FF30ACF6.plist (y/n)? type n
    Do you want to reboot now? (y/n) dont type enytyng just wait


    don’t type y to reboot just leve as it is opened because you ned to install nvidia webdriver .


    8.) Download and install the latest NVIDIA Web-drivers and reboot as requested.


    9) Download and apply the AGDPfix. just run wait for message ok and wait to confirmation.


    10) Now Reboot


    11) boot back in sierra hard drive, download and install Latest Version: CUDA 8.0.81 driver for MAC from nvidia


    12) i well atash HWMonitor app, just copy to applications and set to start wen mac starts.

    Hello, very good work!


    Is it possible to adapt this installation to other processors? I have almost the same configuration as you: Gigabit Ultra Gaming X99, EVGA GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition, samsung 960 MVMe, but I have a Xéon E5 2630 V3 ...


    I suspect that IOCPUNumber must be changed (11 for the 6850 => 15 for the E5)


    But I do not know what other changes are necessary and if there are any-


    When I boot with clover, gets to the line:


    MAC Framwork successfully initialized
    AMFILoadTrustedKeysFromNVRam: failed getting NVRAM
    Using 16384 buffer headers and 10240 cluster IO buffer headers


    My level of knowledge does not allow me to do anything other than to solicit you!


    Thank you very much !

    Hi! onsepakise!


    I think you must remove all dsdt and ssdt files from acpi patched folder from clover .


    And try not use all kext just try with essential kext fake smc and vodootscsync try to test with one by one kext


    maybe you can try just with the dsdt file inside acpi patched folder


    you have to play with some settings in clover config file ... special in Acpi section and Kernel & kext patches .


    And a very important think its...that my fake cpu ID 0x0306F2 its not god for your processor type you have to find a fake cpu id for your model and change it in config plist kernel and kext patches

    How can I use this with i7-5960X ??


    Also
    "6.)Download my ( PostinstallEFI.zip) extract and replace entyre EFI folder from your Sierra hard drive."
    You mean the usb EFI or do this after the MacOS installation?

    After the MacOS installation! Postinstall CLOVER.zip

    Great work! I got this working on my Gigabyte Phoenix-X99 SLI mobo with the same processor and the Samsung 960 Pro SSD. Rather than using the HackrNVMe kext, I installed patch-nvme.


    Have you tried updating to 10.12.5? I'm scared to run the update now that I have a nice working system.

    I turned on autoupdates and I never had problems.
    I,m running now 10.12.5 its very stable no issues
    I have 2 hard drives with macOS Sierra , one for testing and one working untouched sistem
    one the testing ssd I installed also beta versions 10.12.6 to test its all working ok on this sistem but no video on 10.12.6 because I no Nvidia web driver for this version....so no graphics!


    After you update to 10.12.5 you need to download new Nvidia web driver for 10.12.5 and install, after install don't restart just run and apply the AGDPfix and restart

    Or simply use NvidiaGraphicsFixup alongside with Lilu - Generic kext patcher (neue Grundlage für AppleALC 1.1.x und Shiki 2.x.x) and never again care about ADGPfix :D

    Haswell, Notebook

    I installed High Sierra without any problems and xcpm works!


    All USB ports works but I'm pretty shore that not full . I mean I think it works just as usb 2.


    I not tested!


    Here are some screens an the files updated!
