Product model: iMac 27 2017 iMac18.3





Problem Status:


Last week, I removed the motherboard and replaced Fushion Drive, I use WD M.2 Nvme ssd and removed the HDD, the screen was fixed with tape, and the normal boot is completely fine.





I took down the screen and add Micron 2.5-inch ssd today.


I thought it would be better to remove the screen have better cooling.


I used the Studio Display to be the iMac external screen.


After that, the kernel_task took up too much CPU usage, and then I shut down the computer and installed the screen back, but couldn't turn it on.





In the later test

1.Built-in screen is unplugged and the Studio display is connected, it can be turned on but the CPU is occupied.

2.When the built-in screen is installed and turned on, it will keep repeating the boot sound and cannot be turned on.

3.The built-in screen is replaced by other iMac it can light up normally.

產品型號:iMac 27 2017 iMac18.3

問題狀況:
上禮拜拆除主機板更換上,WD M.2 Nvme ssd 並拆除HDD,螢幕膠帶固定,正常開機完全沒問題。

前幾天拿下螢幕,跟換上美光2.5寸 sad,想說移除螢幕散熱會比較好,外接上Studio Display上使用把iMac當主機,開機後風扇狂轉,操作上非常緩慢,打開活動監視器, kernel_task超佔CPU用量,之後就關機要把螢幕給裝回去,但是裝回去後反而無法開機了。

後面測試只要拔掉內置螢幕接上Studio display ,可以開機但是CPU都被佔用掉了。
內置螢幕裝回去開機會一直重複開機聲,無法開機。
內置螢幕更換到其他imac上可以正常點亮。

請問這是主機板問題,但是可以正常開機。
