Hi,
I successfully installed High Sierra on my build and ran it smoothly using the internal UHD630 igpu. This system is mainly used for music production on Ableton Live and everything worked as if it was an original iMac.
Now, the system is no longer stable after running World of Warcraft once. During gameplay the system would freeze constantly for about 3 seconds, then continue normally and after a few of these it froze permanently until the system rebooted by itself. After the reboot I’ve been experiencing heavy graphic glitches and the os in general now freezes as it would during gameplay. I have noticed that it gets worse when I open Safari and in some occasions it freezes then takes me back to the osx login screen.
Solutions I have tried:
- Replace EFI folder with my “Stable EFI” backup
- Installed (not sure if correctly) Lilu.kext, Whatevergreen, IntelGraphicfixup.kext
- Pulled SSD, plugged into MacBook Pro, erased using Disk Utility, reinstalled High Sierra using same flash usb drive as first time
This system is basically unusable since it keeps freezing and glitching even under no load.
Has any one else experienced this after installing a game on a hackintosh? Is there any chance that the igpu got damaged by running the game?
Motherboard: Gigabyte z370N WIFI
CPU: i7-8700k
Memory: Ballistix Sport LT 8GBx2
Wifi/BT: BCM94360CSAX (replaced mobos card)
PSU: EVGA 600 BQ
Cooler: Corsar H60
Storage: OWC SSD Mercury Electra 6G
attached: Screenshot of glitch and config.plist used before glitch.
EDIT: Installed Windows 10 just to test the igpu. Turns out it runs ok as long as I dont install Intels UHD driver. When I do install the drivers, Windows freezes and displays BSOD
