Thanks, fixing it today. I'll be back posting the results

EDIT 1 :

Changing back WiFi card to WD1820a. I had airport card from MacBook Air, but I removed the top heating element from mobo (that card is double the size+adapter).

Reset the BIOS to defaults, and I can boot.

Now WiFi works OOB without kext (no BT). Fixing it now + changing back the BIOS settings. We will see what happens

EDIT 2 :

Everything works again, this card (DW1820A) is awesome, need brcmfixup/patchram2/repo and done.

Awesome, glad to here you are up and running. Does everything work? Did you have issues installing The DW1820a? I thought it was a little bigger than the OEM one which is why I recommend the DW1560, which is identical in size to OEM intel card.

I have the DW1830, which I believe is the same physical size as the DW1820a (haven't seen many side by side pictures). The height of the card matches the OEM and DW1560, however it is a little wider. I had to modify the silver mounting bracket to make it fit, but it does still fit under the Z390-I's IO heatsink.

I never realized how hard it was to find it directly from Github. You can download it here. It's not the first time I've been asked so I'll put it in the guide.

My EFI method does not affect software or installs in any way, you just download it and install as far as I remember. Did it not work for you? You should see a new icon in the top right side of the menu bar when it starts.

1) Clicked on the DMG file
2) Just dragged HWMonitor.aap to Finder/Applications
3) Doubleclicked on it
4) Set it up so it starts when logging in
5) Set it up so it shows CPU Package in the taskbar

I presume this is correct?
