Post your EFI folder and in the meantime, try out the EFI folder @pastrychef has in his thread. Have you considered upgrading to the newer OS?

I don't know how good the airflow is on those cases... Just from looking at pictures, they look pretty restrictive. Have you ever tried running with the case open?

What kind of benchmarking were you doing when it hit 95C? Is your CPU overclocked? My i9-9900K@5GHz tops out at around 81C when running Prime95 using a Noctua NH-D15S, but I delidded my CPU.

Please give my Z370-G EFI folder a try. Link is below in my signature. I use Clover to inject kexts, so if you have any Hackintosh kexts in /Library/Extensions/ please delete them before booting with my EFI.

yea open side as well as other many cooling options tried..cinebench and old unigines for benchmarking...and can only see temps in win..HS software kept temp at 0deg..will try ur EFI if i can't fix without starting from scratch..again.

Those are crazy high temps for just Cinebench and Unigine...

You don't have to start from scratch. Just put my EFI folder on to the EFI partition of a USB flash drive and boot from the USB flash drive. Then you can see if there's any difference. Keep in mind that by default, my EFI folders are using iMac system definition so you should enable IGPU in BIOS and set your RX 580 to be primary display.

ideally..i would want this thing to run both Sierra and Mojave if possible(HSierra is what I had on hand and easy instruct build at the time), and UBUNTU on another ssd for fully loaded Recalbox...need sierra..can't let go of FCP7(too many drafts and speedy workflow)..Right now i got Win10 pushin and HSierra lite i guess..so yea..tryin to do the most here..WIN/SIE/MOJ/LIN is the end objective before January and mounting a 2k screen on the side panel if I can
