Hello,
I am about to install Sierra on a HP Pavilion 15 (see signature below for full specs) which runs an i7 8550U. The integrated graphic card I will be using is an Intel UHD620. I understand that the 8th Generation of Intel iX series is an upgrade to the previous one, therefore I am assuming that most of the solutions used for 7th Gen CPUs also apply to the 8th Gen CPUs. One of my concerns is about the integrated graphics. I couldn't find any detailed thread about this one and the Clover guide for laptops only deals with HD620 graphics, which are available on 7th Gen CPUs. The only resource I've found is this one, which is confused and far from detailed.
In addition to the above, the notebook features an Intel 3168NGW M.2 WiFi card. Any recommendations for a replacement? Again, I could find only a few resources and everything seems to be pretty new, so there is very little informations about these topics out there.
Any heads up before starting to work on this build?
