You do not need anything for this motherboard. No special adjustment.
A single file I have not touched here in OS X.

Bios Settings:

XHCI Hand-off: Enabled
EHCI Hand-off: Enabled
Execute Disable Bit: Enabled
XHCI Mode: Auto
Legacy USB Support: Enabled
SATA Mode: ACHI ( with UEFI Settings )
VT-d feature : Disabled
X.M.P. Memory Profile to Profile1
Integrated graphics. Disabled - PCI graphics Enabled (Verde.kext fix graphics issue)

Several Kext in Clover with proper config.plist. For install USB & OS X .Nothing else.

WORKS like a charm.

Hi Mikorist,

I have the same mobo but with many issues.
1) Graphics with a basic Nvidia GT610 appear some glitches and cannot change the resolution
2) Not working audio. I have read elsewhere to test with an old version of Multibeast to run ALC892.
3) Ethernet works before running multibeast :rolleyes: and now any RTL from Multibeast doesn´t help.

This kext that you provide may help?

Is my 3rd hackintosh, now i´m working very nice with this configuration on Mavericks but never have to make changes in config.plist (dunno where resides) or if its totally necessary.

Clover doesn´t seem to boot in uefi mode either.

Any suggestions?

Will test and back with results..

Cheers.

Hi, does this work with High Sierra too? Many thanks!
 
Hi,

I really do not know. I did not have a success with the laptop. I do not dare to try on the desktop yet.
 
I will test today this machine with High Sierra . I will report how it works.
 
I can confirm that I have -Success-

And works better than ever. :headbang:

Sound from this motherboard is amazing. (have Nippon Chemicon ARE series audio capacitors)

It is also one of the rarely small boards where the audio section is well-made.
No weird buzzing/humming noise coming from this motherboard.

Also no need for CodecCommander

everything works from EFI (A single file I have not touched here outside EFI)

Boot arguments for ATI ( Verde.kext + Lilu.kext + WhateverGreen.kext)

"-lilubetaall radpg=15"

EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other directory.

This kext is for ATI not Nvidia.

But, you can got sound with AppleALC and Lilu for sure from this motherboard

Is your system using APFS on High Sierra or HFS?
