When adding one or two additional PCIe adapters, one exceeds the 28 available PCI express 3.0 lanes by far! In this case, the resulting configuration might be error-prone!Ĭ.) Thus, considering a.) and b.), I strongly recommend to start at least with the i9-7900X, which already supports four channels DDR4-2666 and also implements 44 PCI express 3.0 lanesįurther note, that for all Skylake-X processors, a sophisticated liquid cooling system is absolutely mandatory! For stock speeds something like the Corsair H115i might by sufficient. Thus, there are no further PCI express 3.0 lanes for using PCIe NVMe drives or additional PCIe adapters!ī.) The i7-7800X and i7-7820X already support four channels DDR4-2666 but however also possess only 28 PCI express 3.0 lanes! Thus by using a state-of-the-art 16 lane PCIe graphics adapter and a PCIe NVMe drive, there are nearly no PCI express 3.0 lanes remaining.
Also please take note of the following limitations:Ī.) The i7-7640X and 7740X only support two channels DDR4-2666 and only posses 16 PCI express 3.0 lanes, which are already used up by implementing a state-of-the-art 16 lane PCIe graphics adapter.
All other Skylake-X models compatible with this guide are detailed in the figure below.Ĭarefully consider, which Skylake-X model might be the correct choice for your specific needs. It has been replaced within the goal configuration by the i9-7980XE (18 core). The i7-7800X (6-core) was chosen as the Skylake-X Startup Configuration Model in order to minimise the guide development costs. However, also other X299 ASUS mainboard models or X299 mainboards of other brands might be compatible with this guide after likely considering and implementing few mandatory modifications not accounted by this guide (see post #5079 for further clarifications). This Skylake-X/X299 10.13 High Sierra Desktop Guide bases on the ASUS Prime X299 Deluxe.
This originating post constitutes a new macOS 10.13 High Sierra Desktop Guide for Skylake-X/X299, which certainly can still grow and improve by your estimated user feedback.
