Ty for the guide, i have the same Motherboard but 6700k and a gtx 980ti. I was able to use this guide as a base for installing Sierra w/ latest combo update, the only thing that was different was that after i updated to the latest Sierra update from the app store, I had to use AGDPfix 1.3 and also had to use OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi instead of the one you recommended after getting errors on bootup.

Yes mee too.
And I have the exact hardware configuration.
And are you able to use Nvidia card?
Sierra set the graphics always on "OSX Default Grafics driver". ( I read a lot of guides but with no luck)
Have you solved this issue?

El Capitan 10.11.3 On
MSI Z170A-Tomahawk, i5 6600K, GTX970, 16 GB DDR4,
UniBeast & MultiBeast

​
Prerequisites:
8GB or More UniBeast USB - Follow Steps 1 & 2 from Here
2GB or More USB for Downloaded Utilities & Prerequisite files!
Blank HDD (To Install Hackintosh onto)
Patience


Utilities:
Unibeast 6.1.1

EFIMounter v3
Kext Wizard
AGDPfix (Fixes Black Screen when using iMac 17,1 SMBIOS) CREDITS AND THANKS TO shilohh!!

OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi
OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi
Preconfigured Skylake config.plist
USBInjectAll.kext
Nvidia Web Drivers
After Install config.plist
ALC892 Kexts

Whats Working & Whats Not?
Everything is working 100% except for Most USB 3.1 Ports except for 1. Audio works now works 100% with no Static noise.

Note
To make it easier if you have Windows also installed i recommend saving the settings you want for booting Windows as an overclock profile & same for mac. Name one Windows & the other Hackintosh etc. Every time when you load or change the profile you will need to change the boot device to whatever HDD with the OS your trying to boot.

Pre Install Setup And Configuration
0) Copy all downloaded files to a spare USB
1) Follow Steps 1 & 2 from this Link (Thanks to tonymacx86)
You should now have a working El Capitan USB Installer
2) In finder you should now find a mounted drive called EFI. If not Run EfiMounter v3 and click mount and choose the corresponding drive.
3) Navigate into /EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI/
4) Delete OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi & Copy OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi to /EFI/Clover/drivers64UEFI
5) Go Back a folder and delete config.plist and replace with the preconfigured config.plist
6) Open Kexts folder and all numbered folders before 10.10 (10.9, 10.8, 10.7 etc)
7) Copy over USBInjectAll.Kext into the 10.10 & 10.11 folder
DO NOT DELETE THE FILES. COPY THEM TO A SPARE USB AS YOU WILL NEED THEM LATER!!

@Leeum did you get the m.2 Bluetooth and WiFi that came with the board to work? Which kext did you use for that?

I have the same motherboard and CPU as you except I am using the onboard graphics. Did you happen to get the wifi/Bluetooth to work? Also do you have the audio kext you could upload? I have a small black flicker at the top left of my screen up at the menu bar any idea on what that could be? Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated
 
The preconfigured config.plist download page is down...
Could anyone tell me where to find one? Thanks!
