    Issue creating USB "Mac OS Installer Incomplete"

    It would be great if the tech team would create a CSR version of Unibeast that will indeed use the dmg downloaded from apple. The "Incomplete" error appears even if the DMG is opened and the installer ran to obtain the Install Yosemite app. It is obviously not an "incomplete" error since it is...

    4770K Stuck at either 3.5Ghz or 3.9Ghz (SSDT?)

    i have found a solution (or I just jiggled some things to get it running) I have re-applied multi beast with User/No DSDT, SSDTs, along with the sysdef personalities that will work with my setup. Choose the sysdefs that are needed for your CPU, as per this great thread...

    4770K Stuck at either 3.5Ghz or 3.9Ghz (SSDT?)

    can I add to the thread that I'm also experiencing a 3.5GHz lock on my sandy i7-2700K I have tried most of the usual things and can't get ML 10.8.5 past 3.5 GHz even if my Lion partition goes without a hitch to 4.4. SMBIOS is MacMini 5.1, SSDT tried was from script (ssdtprgen, Multibeast...

    CPU heatsink temperature 127C

    I have a different kind of problem, CPU heatsink temperature reported by HWMonitor is always 25 degrees C even if ambient goes up to 50 and the CPU's go up to 60. The processor is a i7-2700K and the cooler is a big noctua. Could this be a symptom of too much thermal paste or heatsink not...

    Is it necessary to convert from NTFS to HFS?

    A native filesystem will always be faster than an adapted driver. So, yes, you'll gain performance and stability if your drives will be formatted as HFS.

    Should Apple Buy AMD?

    No. It should be of great help to Intel and Nvidia and will no longer manufacture graphic cards for everyone. I don't see Apple as a component manufacturer. The current push to raise the price of tablets and phones near the price of a portable computer will not be fun either. The cheap...

    Intel launches 16 new desktop processors, five new mobile models

    the QM's look like made for apple laptops :) some new cheaper mini's could be discerned too. the other look like media servers, corporate excel chugging and low buget builds. it is nice to see the power rating going around 50W.

    DigiDal.kext - The bane of a Lion Pro Tools Workstation (For me)

    if you want a WORKstation, you simply get a Mac - WORKstations cost around the same amount of money. WORK means MONEY and RELIABLE TOOLS. Working with a hackintosh you PLAN for slight computer bumps. My audio Hackintosh is a second machine that can be offloaded quickly on a real Ma if...

    Exclusive: Intel planning separate Thunderbolt certification for Windows 8 devices

    the thing that potentially changed the computer form factor and functionality crippled by proprietary licences. the ugly thing is that the licensing mess could appear right after the peripherals finally started moving. Could be that Apple has a deal with Intel, otherwise the mess will be even...

    How to make your "BIOS" based system shut down properly

    I would suggest Soft-Off By PWR set to Delayed 4s. This means that pressing the button will put the computer to sleep or bring the sleep dialog while holding it for 4 seconds will shutdown.

    Asus' Thunderbolt add-in card, ASRock's Thunderbolt motherboard don't pass certification

    and this could also be the reason MacPro is delayed.

    Asus' Thunderbolt add-in card, ASRock's Thunderbolt motherboard don't pass certification

    so, as I understand, nobody besides intel could push graphics through the thunderbolt pipe. we are to expect that graphic cards with thunderbolt port will not allow access to PCI? damn these stupid proprietary rules. imho, it is more of a licensing issue, rather than hardware.

    Hard Drives

    right now, seagate and wd are having about the same reliability and it seems all of them tend to fail quickly. the late ones produce an insane amount of heat, a drive killer, not to mention that turning them on in the summer will raise the temperature of the workplace quickly - and you need to...

    Make GSATA drives external again?

    thanks, tried re-installing the esata drivers and now all my drives are external. a more useful situation would be to have the first 4 ports internal, and the last two external. is there a way to tweak the extensions to make them discern the ports (chipset for example)
