Hi,

I plan to upgrade my rig from mini ITX to micro ATX.
More specific, I change from Asus ROG STRIX Z370-I Gaming to MSI Z370M GAMING PRO AC
It's the same chipset and the configuration is nearly the same (I will change the wifi card to dell dw1516).
Does I have to change anything? Remove kext before or change anything in clover?
Or should it work like out of the box?

Thanks
Regards
Lars
 
To answer my question:
Plug and play
No problems with the change (except clover and windows boot, but easy to fix (boot....efi file copy and paste).
I appreciated your comments.
I am also choosing this motherboard and wanted to know if it is fully compatible. I am not going to use the built in wifi though.
Anything I should be concerned about?
 
Everything is working so far.
All USB Ports, ethernet ...
I do not use the sound card because I have an external USB sound device.

For MSI Boards you need NVRAM fix.
I am using AptioMemoryFix-64.efi
In my clover/drivers64UEFI I am using:
ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi
AptioMemoryFix-64.efi
DataHubDxe-64.efi
FSInject-64.efi
SMCHelper-64.efi
VBoxHfs-64.efi
