Hi guys,
I've been inactive for a while but decided to jump back into the Hackintosh world a bit. I purchased the following components and have been trying to get everything working:
Gigabyte GA-Z170X-DESIGNARE
ASUS AMD R9 Nano (from a previous build)
Intel i7-6700K
32 GB DDR4 RAM
I'm able to get macOS 10.12.5 loaded up and install my ethernet drivers with Multibeast to get internet using the AppleGB v5.3.5.3 kext.
The one thing stumping me at the moment is this R9 Nano. I've posted a video here:
Essentially, the graphics are super laggy and I get weird lines going horizontally across the screen when I login. If I click on the Launchpad icon, everything goes laggy. Also, it doesn't look like my menu bar and dock are transparent - so something is not right.
I've scoured forums for the answer but am not really understanding all the lingo used in the threads these days. Any help would be much appreciated. I noticed a thread where one guy gave up and used Nvidia graphics instead. I don't want to have to do that.
Thanks!

I forgot to mention that I've taken a look at this thread here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/r9-nano-in-sierra-os.200756/
And have followed in the same footsteps as cadet-superstar except when I add my Device ID to AMDRadeonX4100.kext (uses Baffin) I'm able to boot but I get what looks like a stuck boot screen with a little bit of artifact in the middle upper right screen. I'll post a pic soon.
