[Guide] El Capitan on the Skylake H170N-WIFI

The only way you would ever get temperatures like this would be either a failed CPU cooler or the cooler not being properly seated.

Check to make sure the fan is running when turned on and you can't move the cooler.

I've checked the fan and is correctly mounted. I moved a cable that possibly could be in the way of the blades. I'm trying one more time. I'll keep this post updated

EDIT
The temperature have improved....Now I have 41º C after 3 hours of use.
seems like it was the blades fan were blocked

What case are you using? if you don't have a case fan and only a cpu fan, then all its doing is just recirculating hot air through the cooler. Needs a case fan if its small like the one in my sig.

I've built my hack according the tutorial from snazzylabs (think the case is the same of your avatar)

I'M HAving problems with Sleep mode.

After put Sleep for a moment and then trying to wake up the computer doesnt respond....and I have to force the shutdown (pressing power button for 5 seconds) and then Turn on the computer.

Anybody else had this problem and solve it?

EDIT
I've tried to put sleep for a minute and then wake up with keyboard/mouse.....The problem is the signal of the monitor, the computer wakes up but it doesnt send any signal to the monitor.

Hey is it normal for my wired memory to be at 9gbs in a 16gb system?
I attached a screenshot.
Thanks

Hello how did you manage this?

I option-click the Volume menu extra, choose "Dell U2713HM" as an output device, and then it works. Does your monitor have speakers built-in / attached?

Hi Ammulder, thanks so much for posting the instructions on this set up, its really helpful. I was just wondering if you could pls post a copy of your final config.plist file, I have the same setup as you and I am having some issues with the Nvidia card.

i need a pro tip guys. i have a dual boot hackintosh running with hd530 perfectly, built by using this guide. im about to add a graphics card to the system which is totally not supported by hackintosh i only intend to use it with windows for gaming purposes. my monitor also has 2 x hdmi inputs. now heres the question. can i boot into osx using hd530 while having pciex graphics card in its slot without tinkering any bios settings? and vice versa booting into windows with pciex graphics card. im thinking may be just before booting into the desired operating system i can switch to corresponding hdmi input and get a signal. any recommendations?

Hi!

I have sorted out getting my nvidea card working, just with HDMI. Just wondering has anyone got their system working with display port? When I use display port, the screen goes blank after the mac boot up screen. Anyone else have this issue?

Any help would be appreciated.
