Stork's MyHero II Build: ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z370 HERO X - i7-8700K - AMD RX 580 - Thunderbolt 3

Hi Stork. It's totally necessary to put in Multibeast -Core Graphics Fixup AKA WhateverGreen- and -Inject ATI- if I have the version of the RX 580 that works out of the box?
 
Hi Stork,
Just build my first hackintosh. High Sierra
Asus ROG MAximus Hero X - firmware 1704.(latest)
Two questions:
When I put it 'to sleep' it almost immediately wakes up?
Power management..? But how do I fix this?

When I used Handbrake the temperature rises tot 100C (HWMonitor)??
Watercooled Corsair H60
After rendering temp goes immediately down to 45C
 
Sorry for the delay in responses.

Yes to both.

Sleep/wake-up is working for me. What is your System Definition? Attach your config.plist to response post.

If you're running at 100C, then check your temperatures at idle. If they're running much over ambient temperature, then you probably need to re-seat your cooler on your processor (clean and re-apply thermal paste). I'm running at ambient as I type this response.

Thanks for helping me out :)
Here's the config.plist

The problem is most likely that the H60 cooler is not designed to cool an 8086K 6 core chip running at five GHz and running a stressful task like encoding video with Handbrake. If the issue isn't due to a poor seating of the CPU heatsink then I would upgrade to a better cooler.

Thanks for taking time :)
What cooler would you advice? Noctua NH-D15?
 
I only have "dart=0" in my Boot arguments. Try removing the other one.

@trs96 may have a good point.

I tried 'dart=0' in Boot arguments (Clover Configurator) but in when put in sleep mode, it 'wakes-up' a few seconds later.

@pastrychef is using the NH-D15S on his Z370-G build. So, yes, that processor cooler is a good one to use.

I'm now out of my depth of knowledge to help you. (That's what I get for having my system work as described in Post #1.) @pastrychef needs to jump in here to help. TIA.

Please enter the following in to Terminal and post the output:
Code:
log show --style syslog | fgrep "Wake reason"

100C is bad. I would not push the CPU until you fix cooling. Ideally, you should try to keep the CPU at a max of about 80C.

Double check that you have mounted the CPU cooler properly. Maybe a better thermal compound between the CPU and CPU cooler can help.

Yes, I have extremely high regard for Noctua coolers. My NH-D15S has been fantastic and keeps my overclocked i7-8700K comfortably under 80C under full load.
