Thank you so much!!

Is it possible to access internet using cable (not wifi)?

Did you get the audio card working?
I followed your steps, but it was not recognized by the system. No audio inputs or outputs.

The onboard graphics shows as Intel HD 530 7MB only iGPU. Is there any solution without buying external GPU?

Thanks!!!

I have the same issue mine shows 5MB i have the gigabyte h170m-d3h and perhaps this is the reason why upon restarting the display gets all jaggy and the pc seems to freeze

@Xixaw, please update your profile (personal details) with your build (Motherboard, CPU and Graphics Card).

Profiles need to contain at least your primary system to assist others with helping you.

Did you install the Intel HD 530 fix in MultiBeast?
MultiBeast > Customize > Graphics Configuration > Intel HD 530

Search Results for Query: HD 530 7MB

I have the same motherboard. I did the intel 530 inject which now shows me 1500mb for my graphics. Picked the same networking and audio options as shown above but both don't work. Not using wifi, using Ethernet.

Graphics card works, Ethernet works

I have only an audio problem
If someone know the process with ALC AppleHDA Audio script with this motherboard, Clover 2.4 and Sierra 10.12.4 and Mac Pro 5,1 definition, I thank you in advance !

Hi, I have problems for audio driver and h264 video playback.

After this initial post, I decided to install Clover directly without UniBeast. If you understand French (as your component list suggests), you can see the settings at http://forum.macbidouille.com/index.php?showtopic=399712

Try all different options in the Sound System Preferences. The Internal/Built-In option is the one that corresponds to the green jack in the back of the MB.

 

[valsamy]

Yeah french detected haha
I've just find the "solution" with the audio_cloverALC-120.command_v.0f3

Unsupported config but it works

And yes i forgot to say the x264 problem has been resolved by installing manually Clover 2.4

hi any one have experience with installing mavericks on gigabyte ga-h170m-d3h motherboard with skylake i5 6402 2.8ghz processor.

Skylake hardware is not supported on Mavericks.
You will need El Capitan 10.11.5 or higher.
