That's great - thanks very much @pastrychef and @P1LGRIM I will try that. I believe the USB gets formatted with 2 partitions, and those kexts go into the EFI partition (into /EFI/CLOVER/kext/Other/)??

@P1LGRIM Great - thanks very much. I've updated my profile. I've tried it in all of the USB ports - most of them are 2.0. Also tried it through a USB2 hub with my USB3 drive, and with a (different) USB2 flash drive. I tried enabling Legacy, but the only area I could find for that was under CSM...

Hi there, I'm attempting my first install. Got the hardware working (I think). I went through the steps outlined for installing High Sierra on this site, and it gets to the Clover screen, then shows the Apple icon, then the progress bar, then it stalls - it shows a circle with a line through it...

OK, so I've moved the cooler to the front. That seems to work. The radiator is now tightly sandwiched between the front fans and the cooler's fans. Not sure if that is ok or not? I assume that should actually work pretty well, assuming both set of fans are blowing in the same direction. On...

Hi there, I'm doing my first assembly. It all started off well, but I'm struggling a bit. Nothing seems to be very clearly explained anywhere. Ahh! Anyways, I'm building a CustoMac Pro. I've got: - ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-F mobo - Corsair 570x case - Corsair H110i CPU cooler I have the mobo...

Those are looking pretty nice. I read some reviews and a few of them seem pretty tight for size. Really clean and Apple-esque, though. That Lian Li one is definitely like the cheese grater. Thx!

Thanks again. I found this Noctua one - seems like it could work well. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L7UZMAK/?tag=tonymacx86com-20

Awesome - thanks so much. I don't have any brand preference. Ideally I just want something that will do the job, be pretty quiet, and that I don't need to fiddle with. If the H100i fits the bill, then great! Would the ARCTIC Freezer i30 be a better choice? Amazon says it's 0.30 sones at full...

Oooh... That's pretty cool. Thanks! What would you recommend for the cooler? I guess that case has no front ports (USB, audio, etc). That's pretty handy for quickly connecting a HDD, etc. That was one reason I had asked about the case - I'm not sure what ports on the motherboard would connect to...

Hi there, I'm just about to pull the trigger on my first build - a nice CustoMac Pro. Brief specs: ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-F GAMING EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC GAMING 8GB Intel i7-8700K Ballistix Sport LT 32GB RAM Samsung 960 EVO M.2 NVMe PCI-E 500GB Corsair H60 CPU Cooler I'm looking for a funky...
