Yep. This fixes it: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solved-black-screen-with-dual-monitor-connected.223082/

Benjamin— I don’t have the shutdown or any obvious USB issues, though I did find my usb3 performance lackluster compared to an esata connection when I was editing off an external drive. I chalked it up to usb data transfer being packet based as opposed to streaming a la esata or thunderbolt...

Finally got my "broadcom" board in the mail (seems bootleg if you ask me, but whatever, it works) and after a bit of doing, I got iMessage working using all "idiots" guide found on this site. That said, in the last couple weeks, following the 10.13.3 update, I basically started over to deal with...

Huh. Sorry to hear about your audio situation. I’m using High Sierra over here and the audio just works. My initial MultiBeast build included the Realtek 100/et al drivers, that’s all i did. Hmm. Going to install the specter patch this weekend, will be interesting to see what that does to my...

Less so esata card, more like an adaptor... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005E2Y3DE/?tag=tonymacx86com-20 This works by simply extending a couple of the Sata ports on the Mobo to a pci card slot cover. Just a note, if you use m.2 storage on this Mobo, you’re giving up a Sata Channel, so...

I also went for the line-out only solution on my motherboard because I run all my audio through a full sized mixer (I'm a video editor), but I also added a $7 USB audio adaptor to the back of my build, the addition of which gave me a headphone jack with audio control (Sabrent Aluminum USB...

... and I realize that you already sorted your issue, but I’m leaving my comment in case it helps someone else... Also, neither here nor there, I’m using the 17,1 profile. I’ve got a very similar setup and had similar problems with my initial setup... my mistake, I forgot step 13 from...

I didn’t try it because thunderbolt worked out of the box with this board.

Well, this thread convinced me to take on building my own customac with essentially this build (though I went with a 1050 ti ftw and m.2 drives), and on my third attempt I got the rig up and running... with audio following a different path... It is awesome. Haven’t bothered with iMessage yet...
