Update from Sierra directly to Mojave

[HorstBrinkmann]

Is it possible and does it make any sense for me to update to Mojave?

Hello and Welcome.

Yes, it is possible.

That depends on why you are considering the upgrade. Mojave has the new-version App Store, it has the Light and Dark themes and it still supports 32-bit apps. Security has been updated too with more recent software-updates, so that is one advantage over Sierra.

If you are using the Clover bootloader you might wish to consider updating that, or switching to OpenCore instead.

Again, this all depends on why you might wish to upgrade.

Okay, understood.

Personally I'd switch to the OpenCore boot-loader if you are currently using Clover. This is not compulsory but even the newest versions of Clover use elements of the OpenCore code, so if you like learning new stuff, give it a try.

If you are keeping your Z170 then consider a more recent system-definition to enable better compatibility with newer versions of macOS.

For more information take a look through our User Builds and Golden Builds threads. There are plenty of Audio Workstation PCs in there to get great ideas from. Search for Apollo UAD or Logic etc.
