[SUCCESS] GA-Z370N-WIFI + i7 8700K + Vega 64

[xtrombone]

My plan is to order the Broadcom BCM94352Z NGFF Dual Band 802.11ac 867M Wifi BT 4.0 Lenovo FRU 04X6020 module.

Yes that is the BCM94352Z card I have working. It is simple to swap the included module. It is 3 tiny screws and 2 very small antenna connectors.

Hi,

I just wanted to verify that the Intel WiFi module on this motherboard can be swapped out. It's a bit confusing since the gigabyte specs state "onboard wifi" instead of "module." I could go with the cheaper ASRock ITX motherboard, but I like the second M.2 slot on this one for future upgrades. I need to make sure I can get WiFi working, since I plan to fill the only PCI express slot with a GPU card (1060 6GB if I can get one ...). My plan is to order the Broadcom BCM94352Z NGFF Dual Band 802.11ac 867M WiFi BT 4.0 Lenovo FRU 04X6020 module.

(Rest would be i5-8400 in a Fractal Design Core 500 case, since I won't need to overclock there may H370 motherboards soon, but I suspect they won't have a second M.2.)

I'm currently running OSX 10.13.3 build 17D47 on a GB z370n WIFI with Intel 8700K and GB GTX 1060.
I'm running 2x HD+ Dell UltraSharp U2515 @ 2560x1440, without a problem.
My only two problems are:
WIFI/BT - Can't seem to get them to work with the suggested FAKEPIIDs
USB - Although the USB fix/patch seemed to help for my two front ports, the bottom ones on the coastline are not usable

Can anyone confirm solid sleep/wake on intel graphics only and DisplayPort?

I have a issue about sleep/wake.
When the system wake up, the web browser can't play the video. (Like Youtube)
I can be fixed by restarting.

How to fix it?

Solid sleep/wake works with Intel GPU & DisplayPort.

But, when the system wake up, the web browser can't play the video. (Like Youtube)

running VDADecoderChecker at boot states Hardware acceleration is fully supported. after sleep nothing same goes with 4k video.

i added these and now Hardware acceleration is fully supported after sleep according to VDADecoderChecker
my videos work and the pc does not hang on shutdown due to vlc,itunes hanging

Add DSDT Patches:

1. Open config.plist with Clover Configurator
2. Select Acpi
3. Verify you have the following under DSDT -> Patches in this exact order.
4. HECI -> IMEI Patch
   1. Comment: change HECI to IMEI
   2. Find* [Hex]: 48454349
   3. Replace [Hex]: 494d4549
5. GFX0 -> IGPU Patch
   1. Comment: change GFX0 to IGPU
   2. Find* [Hex]: 47465830
   3. Replace* [Hex] : 49475055
6. PEGP -> GFX0 Patch
   1. Comment: change PEGP to GFX0
   2. Find* [Hex]: 50454750
   3. Replace [Hex]: 47465830
7. Save config.plist

It works for me! Thanks!
But why the Clover Configurator can't display the config of `HECI -> IMEI Patch` and `PEGP -> GFX0 Patch` ?

Galileo6373637, Thx, man!!! It was long way to USB 3.0 working, and now I eventually can go to sleep.

awesome thanks for all that useful intel... confirms i'll be happy with this board... DisplayPort on itx seems like it's been a long time coming

i've got a dusty "fragbox" SFF that deserves to be warm on the inside (love that handle ... the cooling they tried back then was funny... the mobo was some kind of odd itx that was longer in the case depth dimension, so not only do the case mount holes line up on itx boards but there's perfect extra room for a proper radiator... i have to punch out all that aluminum in the front and back... i've never done any dremeling, hope i don't hack it up too bad

@Galileo6373637, please post your EFI folder and list all BIOS settings changed from factory defaults

Hi, I'm trying to make my hackintosh with the same Motherboard, but with a Nvidia GTX 1060. And I have 3 problems:

1 - Audio is not working for me. I did all of this post, and I have 2 devices called (built int), but they didn't reproduce any sound.
2 - WiFi, have you change your WiFi card? I'm using on the box WiFi card of this motherboard, and, with the kexts of this post, I can't do it work.
3 - I have installed recommended Nvidia Web drivers but I'm sure that something is wrong because videos are stopping when I am playing it, and, when you open windows, they open slow.

Please, can you help me?

Thanks in advance for share all your build.
