Hey Everyone, I got El Capitan up and running on my Gigabyte Z170N Gaming 5 Mobo http://ift.tt/1T0b4pQ
Specs MOBO: Gigabyte GA Z170N Gaming 5 RAM: 32 GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 2400 GFX: EVGA Titan X Wifi/BT: Broadcom BCM94352Z 802.11 ac/b/g/n BT 4.0 M.2 Storage: Samsung 950 PRO 512GB M.2 SSD
Background Everything on the installation well well (had some hiccups along the way but overcame them). I followed the TonyMacx86 guide along with parts of Ammulder's guide (for the WiFi/BT, uses RehabMan's BT/Wifi kexts not sure if there are more stable/better ones out there), NVIDIA web drivers, and used the NVMe driver posted by MacVidCards.
System Freezes I have an issue where the entire system freezes seemingly randomly. (Screenshots below of the console system log after the system freezes and I have to hard reset)

It seems like the system freezes happen only when I'm Airdropping, installing, or downloading larger software (>1-2 GB), not sure. So I think it's the WiFi that's causing this? Again, I'm not quite sure, I don't know what to look for in the logs to determine what is causing the problem... If anyone can shed any light on this, that would be great!
GPU Performance I tried playing some League of Legends, but since I couldn't download it and install it (system freezes during the download stage and/or install stage), I copied it over from my MBP (using USB stick) and ran it on the hackintosh. Initially, the graphics work perfectly. However over time, there is a drastic loss in performance. I start out at like 144 FPS (capped) and over the duration of 15-20 min, the performace drops to 20(ish) FPS. Obviously, there is an issue as my MBP has a significantly worse GPU and runs the game nearly perfectly at 144 FPS for the entire game. Additionally when I had a windows installation on it, it also ran nearly perfectly as well; nothing like this. Is it possible that because I just copied it over, something may have corrupted and/or because it wasn't installed natively, it's not optimized for my hackintosh? Note I am running the NVIDIA Web Drivers. Also, heating isn't an issue as the both the graphics card and CPU are liquid cooled.
Thanks a ton in advance!!
