I use my hackintosh for game development so I spend a lot of time in 3d programs like Unity3D. Previously I was using a gtx970ti on Sierra and had few issues. After updating to High Sierra (10.13.4) however, I ended up with lots of UI lag and horrible METAL & OpenGL performance even with the...

I just nabbed this monitor and am running into issues with the refresh rate on 10.8.5. using dp (60hz) or hdmi (50hz) it gives me this: http://i.imgur.com/lUu3o2s.jpg and only seems to work if I set the refresh rate to 30hz. Do you think upgrading to mavericks will solve this issue?

Yes all of my issues are with mountain lion. It seems to happen when I try to read/write multiple files over the network. Caused a hard-lock on my Ubuntu server today.

No I'm still having this issue periodically when transferring files either via iTunes or other means. However, with the older kext the entire network no longer goes down.

Thanks for this post! I have a GA-Z77X-UD5H and it was bringing my entire wired network down (wifi still worked). It was the strangest thing and I had a feeling it had something to do with mavericks. I'll report back if the kext downgrade did not work...but so far so good.

thanks for the reply! I've moved on to a gtx660ti but I'll see if I can dig up the article. And I think my bios is fully updated (at least as far as the DSDT is concerned). I know I won't get much of a boost in performance, but I have the chip laying around and my server needs an upgrade =)

I guess I should clarify - I currently run a sandy bridge chip (i7-2700k) and would like to upgrade to an ivy bridge chip (i7-3770k). Just curious as to if any software changes need to happen or if it will just work. Thanks again.

Can I simply swap a sandy-bridge to an ivy-bridge without any issues in 10.8.2? Or will I need to make software changes as well? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I have a Hackintosh running perfectly with an ATI 6870 on 10.8.1, I just got a GTX660Ti and when I swap the cards I get a kernel crash right when it hits the apple screen. How should I go about switching these video cards? I tried 'GraphicsEnabler=No' on startup and the result...

After using Easybeast instead of Userbeast I was left with a fully functional system minus network & audio. I installed the network drivers, AppleHDA Rollback, and ALC889. The ethernet card was now functional and my audio card was now registering to the system - EXCEPT I do not get any audio...

I tried uniboot this evening and ran into an issue. The Lion install goes through fine, but after running the latest multibeast with my DSDT from the database upon reboot I get a kernel panic stating: Any idea why this kext is giving me a kernel panic? EDIT: I tried easybeast instead of...

I finally got around to messing with this again. I booted up with npci=0x2000 -v and now it locks on "Firewire (OHC) TI ID 8023 PCI now active, GUID #(insert numbers)#; max speed s400." after about 10 minutes it popped up with "USBF: 661.474 IOUSBCompositeDriver...

After 10.7.2 I guess I didn't reboot for quite some time, because now when I do the computer locks on the apple logo during bootup (-v shows that it sticks on PCI configuration). I can get back in if I remove my drive and reset permissions + ownership of the /System/Library/Extensions folder...

I just removed AppleHDA and VoodooHDA to try this and the system stopped booting entirely, arg. I can't even boot from rBoot now =/ Just sits on the apple logo. EDIT: attached the hard drive to my laptop and moved the files back. it boots now so I'm making a backup before I go any further...

Hi everyone, I've been running a hackintosh with my only problem being that the mic input did not work. I upgraded to Lion and the problem was still there but I ignored it. I was getting along fine with my machine until the 10.7.2 update. After that my audio worked (still no mic), but did...
