I've followed your guides for quite a while, and have been using the z390 Designaire build for myself and two friends, such great work you have done! I want to build a new system, and was wondering what MB you recommend? The z690 MBs seem hard to get and are pretty pricey, so are the z790 MBs...

Are you sure that USB 3 is working on all of your ports? This MB has the Renesas USB hub for most of the USB 3.0 ports, only 2 are Intel. AFAIK, there is no solution yet for El Capitan and Renesas USB 3. Of course, I would love to be wrong.

@VideoLasVegas, Thanks for the feedback. I can't disable that option in the BIOS with the 4770K, it is greyed out, but shown as enabled, but in any case the 4770K doesn't have VT-d. I have also tried using the dart=0 flag, and that doesn't affect the the problem. I tried installing the...

@Wuppie: Thanks for the confirmation, hopefully we can track this one down, because otherwise the build is perfect.

@the_gael, The reason I posted it here is that I have many current builds, 5 different MBs, CPUs, video cards, etc, and the problem is only with this one MB/CPU. If I posted in the Post Installation>Graphics section, I'm sure I would get lots of responses that it is working correctly, that's...

I have an identical build, and it has worked out almost perfectly, except for one tough little problem. If you attempt to play an iTunes movie trailer, the system does a hard lockup, and not even the reset button will restart it, it requires the power button to be pressed for a few seconds. I'm...

I have the exact same problem, and haven't been able to resolve it, short of disabling the on-board graphics, but then you lose Airplay. Have you found a solution?

I saw a solution on eBay, and it looks like it would work well. Search for "ultimate bluetooth unit" on eBay and it should provide the link, if it's still up. It appears this seller has modified an actual Mac Pro bluetooth module so that it can connect via USB. I work in Mac Pro hardware...
