Hi thanks for the speedy reply.
I'm assuming this is where you set fake cpu id ( see thumbnail ), but my cpu is still unknown ?

Did you mount the EFI partition first and then open the config.plist after that ? And save the changes ?
Even if it is unknown and still works normally it shouldn't matter. Your screenshot shows E9 at the end
when it should be EA instead ? The author doesn't make it clear which one to change it to.
config.plist can be requested
As the i7-8700K is really new and the SSDTPRGen.sh script wasn't usable for Coffee Lake till now, I skipped generating the states.
Thanks, have asked the OP.You could run this http://www.cpu-world.com/Download/CPU_identification.html in Windows to find out for sure or try and ask the OP to clarify what it should be changed to.
Can I please request a copy of your config.plist, can you provide more info about Coffee Lake to Kaby Lake spoofing?
Spoofing to get UHD 630 to work.
CPU 0x000906E9
ig-platform-id 0x59120000
IntelGFX 0x59128086
Processor is in Piker Alphas script Unknown of course as the EA model is not recognized by Piker-Alpha's script. Also About my Mac says Unknown model as the spoof of CPU ID is for boot only.
He has to add Coffee Lake CPU to his SSDTPRGen database. Anyway using Intel Power Gadget i already got a lot of working states from 800Mhz to 4.7 Ghz.
There is alreasy a request for new CPU models, see https://github.com/Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh/issues/390

I ran ssdtPRGen.sh but it aborted, unknown processor, how did you manage to run it ?
Did you have to do anything special to the installer USB?
I have a similar setup, except a Gaming 7 variant of the MB, NVMe SSDs, 1080ti. It hangs during installer startup using both Sierra (with NVMe patches in config.list) and High Sierra (stock unibeast). Strangely looking at verbose output it looks like a successful boot but it abruptly stops at some point, and a slightly different point on different attempts.
I've noticed on GitHub that there was requests for Coffee Lake ssdtPRGen, I now understand that Fake CPU ID is unrelated to the CPU unknown on the "About This Mac ", thanks for clarifying this. Thanks for your reply and plist.
