This isn’t the case with Coffee Lake.īesides the core count increase and the smoother integrated graphics with video playback the other big thing with Coffee Lake for macOS is that there is working sleep/wake over the UHD 630 iGPU. One example is with videos where without any configuration there is a noticeable pause every time you skip to a different point in a video before it resumes playing. The UHD630 iGPU is noticeably smoother than HD630 in macOS. Upgrading from an i7-7700k stock speeds dropped my time from 25 seconds to 17 seconds and making the switch to High Sierra.
I also noticed upgrading to High Sierra gave me faster numbers in the Bruce 5k Benchmark. Those performance figures transfer over to macOS. With the i7-8700k 6 Cores and 12 threads running at 5GHz things start to get super fast. Of course what you’re getting is the increased core count.
You can get Coffee Lake working follow the general guide: Guide to fresh installing macOS High Sierra on a Hackintosh (10.13 Update) Worth Upgrading Too? I’ve been using Coffee Lake as a hackintosh for awhile now and although if you been looking to build one early one you probably know information has been scarce so here’s what I think of it as well as the rundown of what you need to know, which I will be adding more too as spend time experimenting with Coffee Lake as a hackintosh.
