Hi, I have a ASUS PRIME H310T with audio codec ALC887 from Realtek. I started at "Before You Install Audio" and get diverted to "AppleHDA Realtek Audio/Post #1/IX. Unsupported/Non-working AppleHDA Realtek Audio"; I tried both method, replacing "3D70A1" with "3D48A3" (Coffee Lake B/H/Q method...

Hi, It's me again.:shifty: I followed this guide in an attempt to fix my audio; I added FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_Intel_HDMI_Audio.kext, and "fixed permission" with Kext Utility. I then restarted my computer. The first time it is stuck at about 1/3 of the progress bar (I am not on verbose so...

Up and working! I used the option "UEFI with emulated NVRAM" in MultiBeast as that contains OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi instead of Fix3Drv, though I could have don it with Clover Config. I think the problem was that I have not properly repaired permissions of the new Kexts. Cheers! Now all that's...

Spare my ignorance, but I'm not sure what do you mean by plist USB port patch. Is is this? I compared the plist, and apparently the additional parts on the internal plist are 1. Coffee Lake audio patches and 2. BIOS Version information. Everything else seems the same. I will provide the...

MultiBeast failed is because of that I mounted EFI prior to build... Classic noob thinking he knows everything XD. iMac18,1 is not available as a system definition on MultiBeast 10.3.0 I got... and I am not very familiar with plist editing, so I will still try MacMini6,2. Interestingly, the...

OK, I tried the same configs, with these changes: Adding 100/200/300 series audio support Adding port limit patch remove 3rd party USB3.0 not touching bootloaders and system definition And instead, MultiBeast throws an error, and the log reads: 08/16/18 21:53:56 - Starting MultiBeast...

Hi, I had finished my system install on i5-8400/ASUS Prime H310T/WD Black SSD (gen2). I originally chose APFS to be my file system; the system installed correctly. However, after I set up my system with Multibeast and rebooted, I lost power button and all USB response (on both USB 3 ports and...

@Vince: your kexts (and probably the USB 2.0 drive) did the job! Will update as the bar progresses. update: Cheers! update5: haven't get pass the post-installation, but at least it booted up with macOS, right? update2: USB and power button did not work after Multibeast build... I think I will...

Hello guys, sorry for not responding... I am busy recently so I cannot get on Tonymac. No, I haven't finished my build; all the hardware is fine, but I haven't got the Hackintosh working yet - I am stuck on the circle-slash screen. I suspect that it is because of kexts (for USB?) and USB drive...

Well, if you don't really want to fix it, then yeah. The part you can fetch from the donor are DDR3 204 pin SO-DIMM RAMs, (probably) the WiFi antennae, and the HDD; the CPU on the NUC and on the MBP should be soldered; I'm not sure if the fan, speakers, and optical drive will do you any good...

Hi, Everything you already had in mind should be compatible with hackintosh. That i3-8100 is similar in performance to i5-7500. I never used Final Cut Pro before, so I am not sure if that is nice enough; you should have a better idea. If you don't plan on upgrading your CPU down the line, you...

Hi, You will be using a motherboard not from Apple. Apple has a special chip on their mobos to that macOS to verify that "yep, I'm on a Apple Mac". So, even if you are repurposing Mac parts, macOS still won't recongize the NUC mobo; you will still need UniBeast/Clover. But, if you can retrieve...

Sorry, meant to say GPU. Silly mistakes…

I don't think there are any major bottlenecks, other than graphics. i5-8400 are powerful enough for most applications; in fact, it is said to trail or overtake i7-7700 in performance. FYI, my planned build is very similar to yours; my research tells me that if you don't really game on your rig...

Note one: that M.2 drive is a SATA M.2; its speed is similar to that of HDDs. NVMe SSDs at 512G usually cost $200, and common choices include Samsung 960 EVO, intel SSD, and (probably) WD balck NVMe SSD(gen.2). Again, NVMe offers exceptional speed boost over SATA SDDs and HDDs, but the price is...
