    Gigabyte GA-Z170X-ULTRA GAMING USB SSDT?

    I found this resource and, after about 30mins, have successfully gotten my ports mapped properly. I am in the process of testing whether this has helped with sleep etc. I hope you find it of use - it's much simpler than other methods I was trying to understand.

    NVIDIA Releases Alternate Graphics Drivers for macOS High Sierra 10.13.0 (378.10.10.10.15)

    I upgraded to HS thinking that I would be headed for a better life with my 1060 6GB. Turns out not to be so. Same issues and now the 'hot corner put display to sleep' fix no longer works. Considering just getting rid of the 1060 and replacing with something that works - any recommendations?

    Alternative to GTX 1060 SSC 6GB for High Sierra?

    Eightball8 - what did you end up doing / getting here? I have been living with the 1060 screen scrambling for about 6 months and, after finally updating to High Sierra on a new disk, and finding the issue is still there, am about to swap it for something else. Especially now that the 'put...

    Nvidia GT740 and Sierra 10.12.x graphical issue after screen wakes up

    I implemented the workaround that others have suggested - In settings / Mission Control, set one of the 'Hot Corners' as 'put display to sleep'. When Mac wakes from sleep and has some screen funk going on, I just move mouse to hot corner, screen sleeps and then immediately wakes up 'fixed'...

    [Solved] Erratic screen from wake - first build help

    I've just built my first Hackintosh. It's been a good experience and one that might have been a little easier had I spent more time reading the motherboard manual. That said, it's all up and running and appears to be fine from boot. My main issues is that once the computer sleeps, the screen...
