Hello guys and thank you for this site and your great work.
I have made a computer with this hardware:
- Gigabyte Z170x Designare
- Intel i7-6700K
- 32GB RAM Kingston HyperX
- MSI GTX 980 ti Gaming 6G
- Patriot Hellfire NVMe (for Windows)
- Crucial MX300 272GB (for Sierra)
- Apple Wi-Fi/BT Module
macOS runs perfectly and I fixed all problems with GPU following these topics:
1) https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solving-nvidia-driver-install-loading-problems.161256/
2) https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/new-method-for-enabling-nvidia-web-drivers-in-clover.202341/
My only problem is Thunderbolt 3 on macOS.
I updated EFI BIOS to the latest version and ran the firmware update from Windows (many times) following this guide:
3) https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...3-test-build-ga-z170x-ud5-th-i5-6600k.199242/
Essentially, I can't see anyone of the devices that I tried to connect. In the System Info panel I don't see Thunderbolt peripherals or any other devices or adapters I tried (Apple T3->T2 with WD Thunderbolt Duo, Sonnet Echo 15+, MacBook Pro 15" 2016, ecc..).
The only thing I made different from the tonymacx86's guide is the Windows installation, because I have not made it from Boot Camp. I ran a clean install from scratch (before Clover and macOS). Maybe that is the problem? Have anyone any idea to solve that problem?
Maybe I lost something, like a kext or other, or maybe the new chipset in this mainboard is the causes. I think is different from that in Z170x UD5 TH (used in that guide), because it has T3 plus USB-C Gen 2 with Power Delivery up 10 100W.
Thanks for any help.
