[FIXED]
How I successful patched Sierra 10.12.1 on a GA-H170-Gaming-3 (CustoMac October 2016) HD530:
after a LOT of hassle (glitch was away in a minute, but also the sound... - I did, what "sherlocks" did.
(source:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/fix-skylake-menu-bar-glitch-fix.206400/#post-1362789 Version 3)
But here in step by step for all of us, who a new to this:
1a. First I always try everything on a fresh clone (clonezilla is a really good hint)
Edit: all what now works an a fresh clone of my working 10.12.1 did NOT work if I tried a lot of stuff before I found out the right way. Means: Wether do a clean install or try it with a fresh clone of your working system. If you went in the wrong direction you cannot come back. Why? Don't know. Experience...
Edit:
1b. boot into your BIOS
chipset > DVMT Pre-Allocated at least 64MB. I use the maximum (512MB)
2. mount EFI-partition (you'll find a "EFI Mounter v3-Script" here in the forum)
Edit:
3a. right-click open with clover configurator "config.plist" in EFI > EFI > CLOVER
in clover go to "Graphics" on the left side
check/correct if Intel is injected
check/correct if in "ig-platform-id" the value is "0x19120000"
3b. open "config.plist" in EFI > EFI > CLOVER with "wrangler" or another text editor
4. copy/paste:
directly after the section:
Code:
<dict>
<key>Comment</key>
<string>Rename HDAS to HDEF</string>
<key>Disabled</key>
<false/>
<key>Find</key>
<data>SERBUw==</data>
<key>Replace</key>
<data>SERFRg==</data>
</dict>
insert this:
Code:
<dict>
<key>Comment</key>
<string>change GFX0 to IGPU</string>
<key>Disabled</key>
<false/>
<key>Find</key>
<data>R0ZYMA==</data>
<key>Replace</key>
<data>SUdQVQ==</data>
</dict>
5. copy/paste:
at the end of the "Devices"-section insert this:
Code:

6. check
finally the cpl. config.plist looks like this:
