GA-Z77 D3H SIERRA CLOVER GUIDE

i7 3.4 GHz
16 GB ram
240 GB Corsair FORCE LE 200
AMD 7xxx

Set the BIOS: AHCI, disable VT-d, UEFI-mode only

Boot with UniBeast USB.
No boot flag is needed.

Do the install and boot one more time from USB, select HFS
No boot flag is needed.

Use MultiBeast to install
FakeSMC.kexst
NullCPUPowerManagement.kext
Clover v2,4 r4063 UEFI boot mode​

This was the easy part.

The tricky part is to get the VIA VT2021 audio and the Atheros GbE LAN chip (10/100/1000 Mbit) to work.
The Ethernet card is not shown in the System Information. (No Ethernet card on this system is fond)


Open Clover Configurator:
Acpi:
check, FIXLAN, FIXHDA

Audio
Patched AppleHDA.kext

Devices:​
Audio id: 9
Check AFGlowpowerstate

Use this guide to get the audio to work
http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/622-via-vt2020vt2021/
Download the AppleHDA{278.56} v.2.zip

Rename the DSDT HDEF.rtf to DSDT HDEF.aml place it in EFI/Clover/ACPI/patches
then Drop it in Clover Configurator “DSDT name”


LAN
AtherosL1cEthernet.kext

Drop the pached AppleHDA.kext and AtherosL1cEthernet.kext on Kext Utility icon.

Restart.

Voila, it work, Audio, LAN and Graphics


Sleep is almost never working without a proper DSDT. (DSDT HDEF.aml is only for the audio.)
disable sleep in system preerence.

Select proper audio out in system setting. In my case: Internal speaker.

Only 2 of 4 USB 3,0 is working (not tested if it work as a 3,0 or just 2,0)

@magicXu, please update your profile (personal details) with your Motherboard or Make/Model, CPU and Graphics Card.
The Rules said:
Profiles need to contain at least your primary system to assist others with helping you.
 
This audio fix worked for me on my z77-d3h-mpv using applehda from AppleHDA{278.56} v.2.zip but without the dsdt. I put the applehda in s/l/e.

This works: S/L/E. I have Z77-D3H

Also want to thank you, that HDAudio also works with this fix!

I followed this guide and everything works including sound and ethernet. However, I am experiencing some intermittent boot issues similar to this link.

Are you using OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi and iMac 14,2 as your system definition? I tried changing it to iMac 13,2 which seems more accurate for my hardware but it still only works 50% of the time.
