Skylake Status Update 10.11.4

[tonymacx86]

​

Great news! As of 10.11.4, Skylake systems do not need special configuration (Piker Alpha's Skylake AppleAPIC Patch) to boot. Furthermore, Intel HD 530 integrated graphics are now working without artifacts. Default UniBeast created USB drives created with 10.11.4 can boot the installer without any changes. Also, MultiBeast can now be used for full post-installation setup.

After updating to 10.11.4, existing Skylake users can remove the Skylake AppleAPIC Patch in config.plist under KernelAndKextPatches/KextToPatch.

For Skylake build recommendations see the latest CustoMac Buyer's Guide.

I now have GA-H170/i6500/8 GB crucial budget/HD530 integrated/Sammy SSD850 and a 1TB drive working. I tried to plug in my GT 740 card (even though it's on the recommended list) and that was a NOPE. So - going to move it downstairs to its permanent home, get the big dog monitor hooked up and then putz around with it. If I need to run HD530 for a while? Fine - I'm good with that. It works.

Thanks you very much, it time to build Skylake.

Are there any other benefits (graphics aside) other than not needing the Clover patch?

Thanks you very much, it time to build Skylake.

I have the same mother board like you GA-Z77x-ud5h with GTX 680 i7 3700k 32GB memory and I am running 10.11.4 . I don't understand why we need to upgrade. Everything is working perfect.

I got an i7-6700k on a Maximus VIII Ranger from ASUS, only audio, usb and network patch was needed. Everything works perfect.
