I had always wanted to build a hackintosh, and now I have! My build is awesome, runs way faster than my old HP. Biggest issue is audio, which I have a Sabrent USB External Stereo 3.5mm Sound Adapter that works natively.
Install Notes
Install was smooth. I followed the Sierra guide, changed my UEFI settings and booted the installer sans-flags. Upon boot I installed graphics driver and Ethernet driver. IMPORTANT FOR ME: After installing UEFI clover, I had to boot from USB or I would get a KP. Solution: clone either the config.plist from the USB or mine to the boot disk. Also, even after installing the graphics driver, I had minor issues with glitching and VRAM. My config.plist has a entry in it that should fix it.
