[Success] lostczech's Kaby Lake ATX: GA-Z170XP-SLI - i7-7700K - GTX 970 - Sierra - 4K

Finally I got it working. I had to install emuvariableuefi-64 and rc-scripts with clover and uncheck some things in clover config and had to downgrade one bios version, the latest did not let web drivers work. works like a charm now. I try to do a tutorial these days. fakesmc plugins make it crash though. I will try newer one then the one included in multibeast.

That would be very helpful, thanks! It's possible I missed that step in my write-up of my build. Also, thanks again, as you remind me about the fakesmc plugins. It would crash for me as well. I will update my main post later tonight

If you are willing to risk your running system, these plugins should work for Kaby lake, at least it says so.

I won't have time the next days. But soon I will have to cause I wanna over clock the machine and that would be risky without seeing temperatures. If only CPU sensor would work would be fine for me. If you try, try one at a time I would say.

I installed the latest fakesmc plugins and every works fine. I get temps of CPU and GPU.

I wonder if it's possible to clone my running system to a m.2 SDD on the internal m.2 header. I guess I would have to put the m.2 driver and reinstall clover? Anyone knows or has done this before?

Yes, that's correct. Start out with the system on a SATA drive. Install the M.2 NVMe SSD physically onto your motherboard. Boot into the SATA drive installation and follow RehhabMan's [Guide] HackrNVMeFamily co-existence with IONVMeFamily using class-code spoof. Use Carbon Copy Cloner (or SuperDuper) to clone the system to the M.2 NVMe drive. Next, mount both drive's EFI partitions, and copy the SSD's /EFI/EFI/ folder to the M.2 NVMe /EFI/ folder. Finally, change the start up drive in the BIOS to the M.2 NVMe drive (UEFI). That's how I did it.

Thanks. I ordered a m.2 drive. I will report back when I tried it.

Hi all I ordered a m.2 drive and installed it with the patch from Rehab man. Works perfect. 2000mbs write and 3000 mbs read.

This is the m.2 drive benchmark:
