Fantastic guide, thanks for making this. One thing, I think you mean "BCM94352Z" for the wifi card (you forgot the 2 :) ) Also, I would like to mention how I solved two issues: 1. Kernel Panic (Page Fault) during install I installed an extra stick of RAM before, but I had to take it out...

If anyone upgraded their RAM and is getting random kernel panics in the installer (page faults), remove your stick of ram, run the installer, then pop the ram stick back in. Note, you might be able to accomplish the same thing with a Clover maxmem flag or something, but this worked for me.

Hi RehabMan, thanks for getting back to me. Only "kextstat|grep -y acpiplat" and "kextstat|grep -y applehda" had any output. MacBook-Air:~ aaron$ kextstat|grep -y acpiplat 13 2 0xffffff7f82539000 0x60000 0x60000 com.apple.driver.AppleACPIPlatform (4.0)...

I'm having a heck of a time getting audio to work. I did all the DSDT and SSDT edits and everything is working except audio. I removed the AppleHDA_ALC256.kext and reinstalled it and rebuilt kextcache after rebooting without caches. I'm not sure what I'm missing here. I'm quite sure I applied...

Post OS X Yosemite Cinebench CPU and Graphics Benchmarks Glad to see my aging 3770k @4.8ghz getting a similar score as stock 4790k's.

That's awesome thanks! We've been needing a theme like this for a long time.

Not a bad deal. But if you look for bundle deals, you can get a new 4670k with a quality motherboard and 4Gb of ram for under $409 (minus the NH d14). Even without an overclock the 4670k will crush the 980 in single threaded loads. In multi threaded loads I would guess that 980 would beat...

I wonder if 8400gs is any faster than the hd4600. It seems like at most it would only be slightly faster and use a ton more power than the igpu.

I find it can play most modern games at all low setting at 1080p or can play at low-medium setting at 720p.

Most of your parts are dated, but should work. Your motherboard will likely require a DSDT. I found this thread for you, http://www.tonymacx86.com/mountain-lion-desktop-guides/73976-success-asus-p7p55d-e-lx-mountain-lion-10-8-2-guide-17.html. The only other part I am skeptical of is your...

Anything at least 400 watts from a decent manufacture will suffice. Probably could go less, but 400 leaves you lots of room for expansion (minus dual graphics cards).

Does it shut itself down? Or does it just remain frozen?

My crackling issue goes away if I use the black audio port or if I keep a microphone plugged into the front jack.

Are you by any chance using the Realtek 898 or 892 codec? Same problem, normally I find this problem after my computer has been sitting idle for a while or after waking it from sleep.

Article: MultiBeast 6.2 Update Same problem with my ALC-898 and also same problem on other hackintosh with ALC-892.

Are all your PSU power cables completely inserted? Specifically the ATX 24 pin and the CPU 8 pin? Try reseating your RAM as well, clearing the Cmos, etc... Start with the basics because thats usually the problem.

Thanks for posting! However, I don't think a low level scripted web chat technical support person accurately represents Apple's opinions about Hackintoshing.

In the bios you can manually adjust the speed of the fans. Yes, dual monitors are supported, except VGA does not work with OSX. If you motherboard has another connector (such as Display Port) you should be able to use that.

I would try running memtest overnight (at regular voltages) and see if you have fault ram.

Sounds like either your PSU went out or your PSU is detecting a short and shutting itself down imediatly. When this happens to me it turned out to be the vrms on the graphics card burnt out and was now causing a short. I would try unplugging your graphics card and anything else that's not necisary.
