System Specifications:
OS X Version: Sierra 10.12.1
Processor: Intel Core i7-6700K SkyLake 4.0GHZ
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 7
Graphics: Gigabyte Geforce GTX 980Ti 6GB
RAM: 32GB Crucial Ballistix DDR4 2400MHz
Storage: Samsung 850 EVO-Series 500GB
Optical Drive: LG WH16NS40 16x Blu-Ray Rewriter
WiFi Card: TP-Link TL-WDN4800
Power Supply: Corsair CX750M 750 Watt
Liquid Cooling: Corsair Hydro Series H60
Multi-Media Reader: NZXT Aperture M 5.25 Bay
Bluetooth: IOGEAR Bluetooth 4.0 Adapter
Case: Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-02 Redshift ATX Special Edition Gaming Case
Monitor: Samsung U28E590D 28" Ultra HD LED
BIOS SETTINGS:
a.) Optimized Defaults
b.) Super IO: Disabled
c.) XHCI Handoff: Enabled
d.) IOAPIC Entries: Disabled
e.) Wake on LAN: Disabled
f.) Storage Boot Option Control: UEFI Only
1.) You will need a 16GB Bootable USB loaded with Sierra - CLICK HERE FOR THE GUIDE
2.) Once you get to STEP 5: Post Installation with MultiBeast..... You will need to Choose your Drivers
a.) If this is a fresh installation, click Quick Start. UEFI Boot Mode is the best option.
b.) Drivers: Network: Atheros E2200Ethernet v2.2.0 & USB: Increase Max Port Limit & USB: 3rd Party USB 3.0
c.) Then go to BUILD and click INSTALL.
3.) Now we get the NVIDIA Graphics Driver. Follow the guide on how to enable NvidiaWeb - CLICK HERE FOR SIERRA DRIVER
4.) To mount your EFI partition, download "EFI Mounter v3". once you have the software, run it and put in necessary info until you see the folder EFI. Here is the Order: EFI -> CLOVER -> config.plist . You are more than welcome to replace your config.plist with mine I have provided. I would also recommend to use "clover configurator" to edit your config.plist. You can also use "TextEdit" which is already on your Mac. Here is the order. RightClick config.plist -> Open With -> Other... -> Scroll Down Until You See TextEdit.
NOT WORKING
1.) The audio does not work on my board. Have not received the correct kexts for audio. FIXED!!!!! Solution is posted by JMAC below.
2.) Sleep Mode is still messing up. FIXED!!!! went into my config.plist and changed my darkwake. #'s 0-4 did not work for me. # 8 worked flawlessly. darkwake=8 . I now have a full functioning sleep & auto sleep.
HOPE THIS HELPED AND I WILL BE UPDATING PERIODICALLY. CHEERS
