So I have a Z170 build with a 7700k that is using a CPUID Spoof to function as 6700k and My SMBIOS is set as an iMac17,1.
When setting up this machine in early May I read different users say that had greater stability with their Z170 board and i7 6700 by switching the SMBIOS from MacPro... to iMac 17,1. so naturally I set my new build with that suggestion in mind.
I'm hoping that since the new iMac natively supports an i7 7700, I can turn off that CPUID spoof should I change the SMBIOS.
I frankly have no idea if this will have any performance or stability improvement. My machine runs perfectly, but I'm a tinkerer and it could probably be better. Oh and btw to every developer on the site... Thank you so much for all your hard work on Multi-beast Unibeast and every kext revision. It is flat out amazing how well a Hackintosh runs these days... I ran Snow Leopard and Lion on old Abit AB9-Pro and Core2Duo and it is 100 times easier to setup today. So, Thanks!
