Thanks for your post. I have the same hardware. Would you mind sharing which guide you used to get your system up and running? I am having issues with my USB bluetooth causing the computer to restart after sleep.

well to be honest the only thing I had to change is my BIOS settings, all I did was to add the kexts in the cover folder. I will definitely help you to get the Bluetooth working, Which Bluetooth device are you using?

I have the IOGEAR Bluetooth 4.0 USB Micro Adapter. It had been working great with other hackintoshes in the past. I am wondering if it’s a USB issue. When I check /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports it’s empty.
For the BIOS settings, the only thing I couldn’t find was the IO SerialPort. I’m not sure what BIOS version I have. Thanks for trying to help out.
 
Sure I can upload my EFI folder, please see the link below.

I have use your config.plist and the kexts, but there are something wrong same as before. I can only use the HDMI output , when ever I use the DVI output, I can not get access into the system if I use both DVI and HDMI. If I only use the HDMI to get access in the system, whenever I push in the DVI cable, The monitor will be black, and I can do nothing, How can I use two monitor at one time by using DVI and HDMI.
ps: I'am using the 10.13

I recommend you put the USB kexts (XCHI-200-series-injector) in the clover folder.

First i'm a noob, I would suggest you try enabling the igfx within your BIOS and also use clover configurator to edit it under graphics.
