    Many thanks! I will name my first child HAY, boy or girl… I managed to get the installer to work by mounting the hidden EFI partition on the flash key installer and editing the config.plist XML with Clover Configurator to spoof the CPUID! I then ran Multibeast, set up the Ethernet, Clover UEFI...

    Apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong place, but I'm following H.A.Y.'s guide and am hanging in the UniBeast Clover. There are many examples of how to add the FakeCPUID to config.plist, but I'm having difficulty getting the correct syntax in the Unibeast Clover options boot args. Am I...

    Amazingly, after buying the Skylake Celeron, I discovered that my motherboard came with f20 already installed.

    >No, Because it's weak sound card and wouldn't give you real sound So I'm assuming that you're going to be using some 24-bit, 192kHz, USB audio interface instead? Do you think that will work well with a nice set of calibrated, near-field monitors? Also: How hot does the Kaby Lake seem in your...

    I'm pleased and excited with your success! Your post gives me hope. My build will be primarily for Logic Pro X, Kontakt and high-end orchestral samples. I have the GA-Z170X-UD5 (non TB) and have been struggling over whether to get a 6700K or a delidded Silicon Lottery 7700K with a Noctua NH...
