My hardware

•	Alienware 17 R4

•	1080p

•	i7-7700HQ

•	Intel HD 630 & Nvidia GeForce GT 1060

•	16G RAM

•	SM961 Samsung NVME 256 

•	REALTEK ALC298

•	KILLER E2500 

•	Dell DW1560 (Broadcom BCM94352Z)

BIOS Configuration

•	BOOT UEFI

   

Overview

I've got dual-gpu working good on 10.13.6,Now just waiting for the webdriver for 10.14.

*In windows OS press FN+F7 to change graphic mode:

  1.dual gpu mode:Indisplay connects to hd630,Exdisplay connects to nvidia 1060 

  2.nvidia gpu only mode:Indisplay & Exdisplay both connects to nvidia 1060

What Works

•	CPU Power Management

•	Battery Support

•	Intel HD 630 & Nvidia GeForce GT 1060(when webdriver has installed)

•	HDMI out (with hotplug) & Audio out(when webdriver has installed)

•	Audio ALC298 (2.1ch with subwoofer)

•	Headphone 

•	Brightness & volume Keys

•	Keyboard 

•	AlienFX keyboard & logo LED lights (follow the settings on windows os but using vmware boot to windows and load the aw1517 usb device could change Alienfx light on macos)

•	Trackpad with Gestures

•	Webcam

•	WiFi and Bluetooth

•	Ethernet

•	iCloud Services

•	Continuity and Hand-off

•	USB 3.0 & TYPE-C

•	Thunderbolt devices with hotplug before sleep

•	Sleep & Wake (only power button could wakeup system)

What Doesn't Work

•	Keyboard & mouse wakeup sysytem

•	Thunderbolt devices with hotplug after wake


•	ALIENFX light control on Macos

•	Webcam IR function

•	Trackpad light (Bios touchpad backlight=auto with no light ,but Bios touchpad backlight=on with light always on)

What Needs Improvement

•	Backlight auto adjust (ALS0 device)

•	HWsensor for more info

•	LPCB,SBUS,Thermal subsystem controllers seems not working normally 

•	Things under "What Doesn't Work"

Install

•	If you can't see install partition try to press F3 on clover boot screen
