Hi everyone,
Several months ago, I tried to install MacOS to my precious machine MSI, here is the spec.
Chip: i7-6820HK,
Graphic: GTX 970M, not OPTIMUS.
Network: Killer E2400 and Killer Wireless 1535. (Someone said this wifi is a no-go)
Sound: ALC899, although I couldn't find kext for this, @emdirector found that 898 would work, still haven't able to try.
I have follow this thread,

and these:

https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.164990/
I finally have chances to install mac. I've finished the installation process. But I could not try it until my quarter ends.
In the post-installation, I could not make the sound + Ethernet +Wifi + Graphic works as I wanted. I was about to download MultiBeast and copy it to macOS using another USB (since my Mac currently offline), but after I read some threads about my hardware, I believe MultiBeast only make the problem worse. Where should I start again? I HONESTLY DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START AGAIN AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS ABANDONING THE PROJECT.
Extra: And Every time I tried to boot to mac, I need to plug the USB installer in. Maybe this was the issue "BIOS doesn't support boot from HDD" mentioned by @emdirector? But I'm using Linux and boot it from HDD right now and it works fine, I'm so confused about the problem.
There was a post of mine several months ago, it was about pre-installation, so many thanks to @RehabMan for making myself able to start this project. This time, can I have some helps one more time.
