    My first build: ASUS vs Gigabyte vs ???

    Hmmm, I think that's out of my budget and way too much for my needs (considering I'd need a MoBo with 4 direct PCIe lanes). So I have to re-consider my priorities. I want to be able to play VR games in a later stage, so I will probably also (at some point in time) consider an SLI setup...

    ASUS Z170 SABERTOOTH MARK 1

    Hey! Have you been able to fix it? I found this and wonder if it also applies for the Z170 Sabertooth as it uses Realtek ALC1150: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/no-sound-from-built-in-realtek-alc1150-in-el-capitan.174326/

    [SUCCESS] ASUS Sabertooth Z170 Mark I macOS Sierra 10.12.1

    Hey! I am also looking into buying a Z170 Sabertooth, see my thread: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/my-first-build-asus-vs-gigabyte-vs.207023/ I was first considering a Gigabyte Z170 Gaming-7, however I stumbled upon a big issue and want to go for the Sabertooth now. It's good to know that...

    My first build: ASUS vs Gigabyte vs ???

    I just read through the MoBo manuals and I just noticed that the second M.2 connector of the Gigabyte Z170 Gaming-7 MoBo disables a great amount of SATA ports. While running two M.2 PCIe SSD in a RAID would work, the second M.2 SSD would only run on x2 instead of x4 speeds and leaving me with...

    My first build: ASUS vs Gigabyte vs ???

    Well the article is about older hardware. It also says that the Z170 chipset has built-in support for NVMe SSDs. And it's also advertised on the Gigabyte mainboard. However, I couldn't find a discussion about a working build. Anyway, OS X will be installed on a traditional SSD and Windows should...

    First Hackintosh - Need advice for GPU

    Hi, I had a GTX 970 up and running in my Mac Pro. You just need to install the Nvidia Web Drivers for Mac. As far as I read, this will also be the case for a Hackintosh. Nvidia Web Drivers are usually published a few weeks after an OS update. The downside is that you can only update the Nvidia...

    My first build: ASUS vs Gigabyte vs ???

    Hey there fellow Hackers! I'm new here and I hope you can give me some advice for my first Hackintosh compatible build. Intro (for the curious) I have a MacPro 4.1 (early 2009), which I was barely able to upgrade to macOS Sierra. I had to apply a workaround, however I fear that as of next...
