I've got all my parts arriving today for my first Hackintosh!
After testing the Gigabyte LGA1151 Intel ATX DDR4 Motherboards GA-Z170X-GAMING 6 with i7 6700K with Win10, I was going to attempt a Sierra install.
1. Can I boot directly to the Samsung 960 PRO Series - 512GB PCIe NVMe - M.2 Internal SSD (MZ-V6P512BW)? It will be the only storage for now. I'm unclear on whether I'll have the needed drivers in place?
2. As 10.12.6 just arrived, should I wait a few days for the dust to settle and then download new versions of UniBeast and MultiBeast?
3. I have an i7 6700K coming in, but ... should I return that an get an i7 7700K instead as it's fully supported in 10.12.6? Or totally re-think and get a Z270 chipset board?
4. I saw one success story where he installed El Capitan first and then upgraded to Sierra. Is that a preferred option - or should I just go to Sierra directly?
