Your USB has two partitions 1 is EFI Partition which has Clover Config. "Clover is a boot-loader for mac "
Mount EFI Partition with the tool in Attachment and upload this .

Note : MSI Z270 has not been tested yet .

I don't know if you can do that in Windows .. Google it
and feed back your installation for Z270 Series

The Intel Celeron G3900 seems to be the cheapest I can find.

No, I'm using Cubase and Pro tools with Kontakt and many other plugins


No, Because it's weak sound card and wouldn't give you real sound



You can check this guide : https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...cpus-200-series-motherboards-in-macos.211743/

but it didn't work with me



You can use any 1151 socket .

hello

FYI: the bios F20 upgrade DOES require a skylake cpu.
I have been stuck with my 7700K with my 170x board because I had neglected that point. I had to buy a cheap skylake cpu on amazon to do the flash update ...

Amazingly, after buying the Skylake Celeron, I discovered that my motherboard came with f20 already installed.

>No, Because it's weak sound card and wouldn't give you real sound

So I'm assuming that you're going to be using some 24-bit, 192kHz, USB audio interface instead?
Do you think that will work well with a nice set of calibrated, near-field monitors?

Also:
How hot does the Kaby Lake seem in your setup?
I'm getting ready to purchase a cpu on Wed and am still considering this chip.

Now that you've logged some time with it, would you unequivocally recommend using the Kaby Lake over the Skylake?

I'll let you know how my build goes.
Thanks again for your invaluable input!

Apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong place,
but I'm following H.A.Y.'s guide and am hanging in the UniBeast Clover.

There are many examples of how to add the FakeCPUID to config.plist, but I'm having difficulty getting the correct syntax in the Unibeast Clover options boot args.

Am I spoofing the Kaby Lake CPUID correctly in the UniBeast's Clover boot args?
Boot Args:dart=0 nv_disable=1 FakeCPUID=0x0506E3 -v

Only real difference is I'm using a PNY Nvidia GeForce GT 710 video card.

I keep getting these +++++++++++++++++'s

I will upload my EFI Folder here ... only add nv_disable=1 to my config and replay with what happened

Many thanks!
I will name my first child HAY, boy or girl…

I managed to get the installer to work by mounting the hidden EFI partition on the flash key installer and editing the config.plist XML with Clover Configurator to spoof the CPUID!

I then ran Multibeast, set up the Ethernet, Clover UEFI boot loader, 17,1 def and injected the NVidia drivers. (oddly, it thinks it's 14,2)

I then ran Clover Configurator again to insert the CPUID.
My bestbuy $50 PNY GeForce GT 710 card seems a bit wonky. Command-Shift 3 screen capture doesn't work. The 3D plots in Grapher also don't work. I may need the nvidia web installer graphics and notice on the info window that graphics card has 0 megabytes.

I have nothing in my /kexts/other folder, so I will add those files and try the amended config and report back.
