    Big Sur on Z170X mobo with OpenCore : failure

    Hi all My Sierra install had been running flawlessly since 2017 (Gigabyte Z170X G1 Ultra Gaming, i7 6700K) but in late june, the graphic layer conked up and all I was left with was an OS with no hardware acceleration. Chrome with bands across the pages when loading, Davinci Resolve unable to...

    BCM94360CD unstable wifi under Sierra 10.12.6

    Hi So I got this card and thought it would just work out of the box... but the wifi is spotty: it starts with normal speeds only to drop to like 40KB/S every now and then, then eventually going back to normal and then slow again... for no reason. I had a basic wifi card before, so I put it back...

    Security Update 2018-001 for macOS Sierra 10.12.6 and OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

    [Intel 6700K on Gigabyte z170 ultra gaming, running Sierra] Ran the update like all the updates since september (never had the slightest problem, so I think I've become confident, perhaps a bit too much!). Kernel Panic, like many here. I tried many boot options mentioned here... The only thing...

Artifacts are not really a problem, I just turn the monitor off and on again, they're gone. Swapped the 1060 for a KFA2 GTX 1080 EXOC and no artifacts at all when...

    [SOLVED] GA Z170X Ultra Gaming EVGA GTX 1060 SSC / display and other issues

    So the method I followed for that first install is in this youtube video (the video ID is Azd1GxgBYW4, can't put the link as it's treated as SPAM). I stopped when the OS wouldn't boot and proceeded to find solutions on other websites. I formatted everything and this time I followed that method...

    [SOLVED] GA Z170X Ultra Gaming EVGA GTX 1060 SSC / display and other issues

    Hi all I thought the build would be straightforward after choosing parts that are quite common and there are several tutorials around. First, Sierra wouldn't install, so I replaced OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi with OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi. Sierra install went well, just the display was 1600x1200. Later...
