Is it safe to give Feedback from a Hackintosh?

Everything is fine here with a new EconoMac II build completed at our computer club meeting last night [Gigabyte GA-H81M-HD2, 8 GB Kingston DDR3 1600, 500 GB WD Blue, i3 4340, HD 4600, Corsair Carbide 88R case, homemade WiFi, Corsair CX430M power supply, external USB sound]. Sierra installed just fine from the USB drive I made following TonyMac's instructions and everything works. This computer is functionally equivalent to the i5 2.6 GHz Mac Mini which lists for $700 at less than 1/2 the cost.

Morning,

good to hear that everythings is fine. Does playing movie trailers or movies/TV shows in iTunes (i.e. DRM proteted material) work with the public beta and your setup (especially the DH4600)?

Normal since it is beta... But if you are using clover you might want to copy your audio patches in config.plist you were using before to your config.plist you are using now. If of course you are using audio patches! Some reported it works

And those might be?....

I'm attaching my config for my z97x sli with a gtx960ssc i used toleda's clover audio patch command tool and it added my clover patches for me in el capitan. I just copied over the same config file to the new clover efi for sierra and all my audio is working I also had to use an ssdt to get my hdmi audio working for my particular build

Nope. No movie/TV shows in iTunes since iTunes 11.1.2/IvyBridge and this hasn't changed.

Well, thanks for that. I'm running a Z77 system with a GTX660 so I'm going to have to compare your config with mine to see what I can change to make it work.
