(Trouble Shooting // Pointing in the right direction) MSI Z370 Krait Gaming High Sierra 10.13.6, First Real Try with Vanilla

Hey everybody, please have mercy with me since English is more or less my 3rd language.

Part 1 (Boring Background - Skippable)

I would like to discuss what I'm still missing // doing wrong. I loved the Idea of a Hackintosh and tried several times to build one. And I'm sorry , but I have to say it: I started with random Efi Folder and Tony....tools :(. Got it one time to work with a Efi from a Russian Site (yes I can read a bit Russian). Then after some wired glichtes, I was disappointed and stopped to work on a Hackintosh. Delete the SSD with the Hackintosh Files. Later on, (3 days ago) I decided to start again for real with a vanilla guide that I found here on reddit. thx to u/corpnewt .

So After 3 days of trying to get it work and need tips and help for some things. Maybe you can just give me a link for the fix and I try to read it and understand it as best as I can.

Part 2 ( Hardware and Software // Kext)

Motherboard: MSI Z370 Krait Gaming CPU: i7-8700k Graphic: Nvidia Geforce GTX 1070 Ti (MSI) 16 GB TRidentZ RGB Corsair 750W PSU Corsair H115i Platinum RGB 

  • Clover Package 4917, iMac 18,3 install with iGPU. Aftert that and upgrade to 17GS030 Webdriver only.
  • Kext are in the EFI Folder (I changed Serial Number, SMBIOS, and so on) Limited USB-Ports on 11 with USBMap
  • Standard Bios Config found everywhere + Overclock to 4.8

For more Question about Software ask, don't know what is important and what is not.

Part 3 ( Problem)

Since I Want the focus to be more here and added spoilers for the part 1 and 2.

Ok so, I have my iGPU enabled for helping with FCPX (getting 28 secs in BruceX 5k). PEG + MultiMonitor (64MB, can't go higher cause of my shitty Motherboard). Everything works fine, the problem is more on the sound side.

When I use the mouse , download something I can clearly hear a whining (like from GPU with fps). Is more like annoying then a real problem. But still never then less existing. I tried to google it, but never found an answer. (Is not a bad PSU, just got it brand new and same Bios Settings in Win 10 don't make this sound)

What I found when I enable the iGPU was the BIOS Setting :

CPU GT Voltage - 0,006V (Info: Is normally between 1,55-0,6V) Without this Settings and no IGPU I don't get the sound. But I loose Acceleration. (Trying to add a photo after I posted this.)

Second Problem is maybe my config.plist and my Kext. I get the basic and get my machine up and running without big issues atm.

Still, can somebody check over my EFI?

Question:

  1. If my config have : SATA1 to SATA0, need my SSD to be in SATA1 for the Hackintosh?
  2. I don't have so much kext. I'm missing something or where the EFI I saw just overloaded and what about drivers? ATM I'm only rocking 3. :D Is that to less as well?

Part 4 (Benchmarks and Future Things)

Okey So if somebody would like to see Benchmarks, I will add them later on. But I guess everybody does know what an i7-8700K can do.

The Bluetooth and Wlan Card will arrive on Monday. BCM943602CS - Hope will have native support.

I try to Edit this and make it look more clean and correct some mistakes. Let me pls now. Appreciate the incoming help =)

EFI-Folder v1

Edit:

  1. Changed Structur a bit
  2. Added EFI Folder
