Hi guys

I have a Intel Nuc 8th gen i5.
Having some troubles with mojave, but seems stable on High Sierra (some random unexpected restart).

It's possible to have a quick recap on this platform?
Or I can go with the initial post?

Tnx!
 
That could depend from uefi drivers and kext revisions, you should give a bit more details.

A good recap for 8th gen is #430 and #562 (my working nuc 8th i5).
 
Great guide and thread! I just built a NUC7 with my son for under $500 and the thing screams. I had zero kernel panics using all of your guys previous experience. It only took us about 3 or 4 hours from beginning to end to get it running completely solid. Super happy with it. Hopefully we can make the jump to 10.15 shortly after it comes out.
 
I am using the BCM94360CS2 and M.2 adapter (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32947752122.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.5c2d4c4dw92XUE) for WiFi and BT.
WiFi card will use M.2 channel, while Bluetooth part of this card will have to use USB header. I use a 2-pin JST 1mm cable to connect between this adapter and internal USB header.

Hi guys,
i received my Wifi + Bluetooth card and M.2 adapter (in order to get Internal Wifi and Bluetooth) and I'm now trying to connect Bluetooth using the "Internal USB headers". Wires that came with my card and adapter don't seem to be compatible with available internal ports I've got inside my NUC8i5BEH.

So my question is... where am I supposed to connect to so I know which wire to try to buy?

Here is what my board looks like. I'm thinking the headers highlighted in blue here but not sure... which would mean I would need to order a 2-pin JST 1mm to 4-pin something...

There is more in this thread, other users have purchased the usb cable or semiconductor fabricated their own. I know this is a lot to take in but you will also need to create or modify the USB SSDT to allow those headers to work and to keep other functionality. Do some additional searching and you will find the cable and learn about building a custom ssdt.
See post 973 as a starting point.

Nice! Thank you for your reply. I'll look this up.
I wonder if @GoingDark has had this cable fabricated in the end and has one to sell
 
Hello all, I'm new here. I've used the various posts here and managed to successfully install 10.14.6 onto my NUC8i5BEK. It is running BIOS 71, I upgraded the firmware on the Samsung EVO 970 plus, and also had to place my single 16GB DIMM into a specific slot. So far so good.
Now that the unit is running I have a few snags. The display I'm using is an LG 27UD88, which according to the specs is 4K 3840 x 2160 (DisplayPort: 60 Hz, HDMI: 60 Hz).
My Macbook pro connects through USB-C to that and it drives it at full resolution at 60 fps (and also get its power over that).
The NUC is connected to the display with HDMI, but although I appear to get the full resolution, I am only getting 30fps (or so I guess, by the looks of it when I drag windows across the screen). The display overview says this as well:

Does anyone have this issue and maybe knows how to address it?
Also, I was hoping that the NUC, like the macbook pro, would be able to use the USB-C connection to everything (video, usb, power). Would that ever work?

thx

You may want to try making it full screen and play a few different videos that are longer than 3 mins long. I tested it with music videos.

I have the same problem with Safari and quicktime player. but it works fine with Chrome and VLC...
