Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm not planning on overclocking as this system is powerful enough for my audio workstation tasks.

Profiles need to contain at least your primary system to assist others with helping you

You may need Nick Woodham's OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi.

I will try that now. I already tried the normal OsxAptioFix2Drv.efi

Are there any recommended boot args I should use? Currently im using:

-v
nvda_drv=1
nv_disable=1
npci=0x2000

Attached is the EFI Im using in my clover boot loader.

Also looks like im using BIOS Version 1003 on the MOBO. I might update this today.

UPDATE:

I updated my BIOS to Version 1504 and now the BIOS is way more snappier and even loads faster as well. Here is a snapshot of where im stuck at now.

HID: Legacy Shim 2

• Current problem is with the USB port in which your Sierra UEFI USB Installer is inserted.
  • Is your USB installer USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 type?
  • If USB 2.0Flash disk, is your USB installer inserted into a USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 Port?
  • Is the USB installer in a USB port in the Front Panel or Rear of the Computer Case?
• Did you re-set the BIOS options after the BIOS Update ?
  • What are your choices on legacy USB
    
  • XHCI -hand off and
    
  • EHCI-handoff
  Images uploaded for reference about the above BIOS questions.

I actually just switched over to the USB 2.0port about 5 minutes ago and also did this modified/patched the line entry for the kernel in clover. (As outlined in https://nickwoodhams.com/broadwell/ )

It booted up and is now installing macOS Sierra!!!!

Yes, I did update the BIOS again after the update. I will update after the install is completed..Ofcourse the goal now is to boot without the USB after its done...

Baby Steps, lol.

Update: And yes the USB installer is USB 3.0 with Type A & C connector. But I plugged it into the USB 2 port on the back of the computer.
