Here is my build, and steps that I took to successfully run Mavericks on my PC:

CPU Intel Core i7-4770

Mobo Gigabyte GA-Z87-HD3

GPU Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760
RAM Corsair Vengeance LP 2x4GB
SSD Samsung 840 EVO 120GB
HDD Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 500GB
Wi-Fi TP-Link TL-WDN4800
PSU Corsair CX600
Case Nexus Thrio 310

1. Made bootable USB with UniBeast on OS X powered computer.
2. Installed OS X using given instructions in
tonymacx86's guide.
3. Used DSDT free installation of MultiBeast to install audio and networking (exact driver names for my motherboard took from CustoMac October's guide).

P.S. Had some booting problems because of choosing Mac Pro definition 5.1 in MultiBeast. But reinstalled with 3.1 definitinion and now everything works except iMessage, but I don’t even use it so I am not looking for any fix.
Sleep, shut down, graphics - everything working.
 
Hello! I have a similar Mobo , the Ga Z87X-Ud3H, also with an i7 4770 NON k processor. I could'nt install Mavericks on it, did you have any issues with the CPU for not being "k"?

Thank you in advance!

Frank the GA-Z87X-UD3H motherboard is used in the CutoMac Pro build:

For i7-4770(NON K) then follow this instruction
  • In UEFI/bios disable VT-d option
  • Use the boot flag Dart=0 from boot loader screen.

Try booting using -v from the chimera screen. It will boot slowly with lots of lines of text. It may take 3-5 minutes to stop. Take a good clear photograph and post picture using the 'Manage Attachments' section below.
