@Stork & @pastrychef out of interest some of the settings you have been recommending people for their clover configs are things I don't seem to be using, yet everything is fully working for me - audio, sleep, shutdown, USB3, iPhone charging, iMessage, continuity & Handoff, SSD Trim (although it does slow my boot time).
Is there anything that I really should have in my config for my setup? I don't have any interest in the onboard graphics, only my GTX960 which works fine with lilu, nvidiagraphicsfixup and nvidiaweb true set in config. I set everything the same in my BIOS as advised on page 1 except I also disabled CSM support as I only boot macOS and like clover in full resolution.
I have attached my EFI folder with my serials changed in the config if you could maybe give me some tips on anything I maybe have wrong. I migrated my build from a P55 i7 860 rig so did not clean install or use multibeast. I do only inject kexts via clover and keep my system extensions folder default. Maybe this will even help some others as all my audio and graphics works fine and just did from first boot.
As I say everything seems to be working for me , the 10.13.5 update was a breeze and I have not crashed this rig once working on it all day for over a month now, but if I can change any settings that will make it even better then I would welcome your expert advice.
- You have two XHCI to XHC DSDT renames, as far as I know, those are not needed.
- If you don't use/need Quick Sync, AirPlay, HEVC, you don't need to enable IGPU. It's up to you. Real iMacs have IGPU enabled.
- The SMBIOS section of your config.plist is missing UUID.
- Your drivers64UEFI folder has OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi and OsxAptioFix3Drv-64.efi. Only one should be there. I recommend OsxAptioFix3Drv-64.efi or AptioMemoryFix.efi.
- If you use OsxAptioFix3Drv-64.efi or AptioMemoryFix.efi, EmuVariableUefi-64.efi is not needed.
- Your drivers64UEFI folder has VBoxHfs-64.efi. I recommend using HFSPlus.efi instead.
- I recommend using SSDT for USB rather than 15 port limit KextsToPatch.
- You have AppleALC.kext and realtekALC.kext installed. Use one, not both.
- If you use AppleALC.kext (latest version), CodecCommander.kext is not needed.
- If you use AppleALC.kext, the audio KextsToPatch in your config.plist is not needed.
- You have XHCI-300-series-injector.kext installed. Despite its name, XHCI-200-series-injector.kext should be used with Z370 motherboards.
