Hi eurekaiv, You are right. I used the term OOB in the wrong way... My Wifi worked OOB, it means I did nothing to get it working, and I know that wouldnt be possible with a GPU. :)
So, I don't expect to have a GPU working OOB, I can do some workaround and patches to get it done, but I really want to have a GPU that after the installation it works well and constantly. 02 screens without the necessity of manage cable everytime I restart the PC.
Ill probably go ahead with GTX 1050ti

I am able to boot dual monitor without changing cables. If I leave the DP monitor off at boot, I can boot to the login screen on the hdmi monitor. Then power on my DP monitor, then login. If I get to the desktop and then turn on DP monitor, I get a KP. Strange, but works.

I tried it now... but didnt work. If I turn on the projector (second screen on DP) I get black screen in both, doesnt matter if I turn on the 2nd before or after the login.
If I dont turn on the second, I can see it on Display Preference.. I can set mirror or not, but if I turn on.... BOOM! I lose both :)
I am not seeing any other option beside to buy a DGPU :(

Have you gotten into what ports and framebuffers the screens are using in IOResgistryExplorer? Something I suspect is the problem, but haven't figured out yet, is that the connector-type is showing incorrectly in IORegistryExplorer. When I use Lilu.kext all the connector-types in all framebuffers show up as hdmi. If I kill lilu.kext all the connector-types in the framebuffers show up as DP. I have tried to patch these connector types in clover, but they are ineffective. However, others patches I am using in place of using intelgraphicsfixup.kext do work. Frustrating.
 
@gandem , I am getting "incorrect" connector as you, I have a fun information about the framebuffer.... lets go: :)

I have in my config.plist the ig-platform-id: 0x59120000 that has all connectors as DP, so, why am I getting connector HDMI 0008000 on my port 6? if you look at the file AppleIntelKBLGraphicsFramebuffer.kext you can find:

For reference, my MOBO has HDMI on Port 6 and DP on Port 7.


framebuffer 59120000:

- 4th video output: Disabled: FF 00 00 00 01 00 00 00

So again, why am I getting 00080000 connector without any patch? My system is changing the framebuffer automatcaly? I don't know if it is possible, but it is changing to framebuffer 59160000

As you can see, I don't have my DP (port 7) enabled by default on FB 59160000... Remember that I didnt choose this FB on my config but for some reason the System is changing it....
I need to apply a patch to have my DP activate:
find:01 05 09 00 00 04 00 00 87 01 00 00
replace: 03 06 09 00 00 04 00 00 87 01 00 00

OK, after the patch I have my DP and HDMI ports enabled, but I am still not able to get both working at the same time :(

check your IOResgistryExplorer and try to find in AppleIntelKBLGraphicsFramebuffer.kext the correspondent FB that your system is using, dont believe on the FB that you choose on config.plist :D

I don't know if its possible to see via command what FB is in use, I could figure out it because I searched in the file one by one FB available and only 59160000 was the same profile that was active in my computer
 
Disregard, lol! I deleted my original post here-- for some reason my browser was caching older links. If you saw my original post, disregard-- your links are fine :p

@GBeckman, I just noticed something... The links you provide for the Kabylake CPUs (Intel Core i7-7700K)... Those are all Skylake CPUs (Amazon, NewEgg)... Is this a Skylake or Kabylake build??

Edit: The UK link appears to be Kabylake, but the other two aren't...

When I posted this thread I provided only one link for each component (the first link bellow of the item was provided by me), the second and third link was included automatically or by the moderator... It happened with all other links, the 2nd and 3rd link of MOBO is wrong as well.
The fact is, my processor is 7700k and the first link above it is the correct one :)

I'll review the first post

Nah, it was my bad. Stupid cache. Sorry about that!

Mine is matching yours, with HDMI on port 6 and DP on port 7. Lilu.kext is throwing everything to connector-type HDMI. If you boot -liluoff you should get all connector-types as DP. Will dig into this more when I can and report back. I have an Alpine Ridge card that I would like to do some testing with as well.
 
I got an old discrete GPU geforce 210, it is weak gpu but it is good enough to connect my projector 1080p.
I have just connected the projector hdmi on the Geforce 210 and worked without any customisation!!!!
I was very happy, just what I need.... but I decide to try to export a 4k video 4min to check the overall performance of the PC.... SHI*T, it took 4x times to compile the 4min 4k video... :(
I could notice that if the geforce 210 is attached to PC, it doesnt use the HD630 when export the video.
On Intel power gadget, I can see the GPU HD630 working at 1.2ghz (100%) when it is alone. If I attach the Ge210, I see on Intel power gadget the GPU HD630 working near the 0% and Imovie delay 4x to finish the job. :(

Anyone knows if it is possible to set the main GPU ? I believe the system is preferring to use dGPU to processing the videos.

Now I am back with only 01 screen and removed Ge210
