GA-Z97-D3H Rev 1.0,4690K,HD4600,10.10.5,Clover 3202 (april 2015).
After being afraid to flash to F9 (latest stable) I took the step yesterday.
Looks & feels stable. Network,sound (external usb),HD4600 graphics,sleep,boot times.All good.
Reason was Win7 (on second HD) stopped booting after a "wrong patch", caused by Microsoft update (10/15/2015) as far as my logs can tell. Sytem repair & recovery could not fix it.
F9 Update didn't heal the Win7 install and still failed to boot after flashing, so needed a complete Win7 reinstall.Yes, you need backups.
F8f to F9 update did not harm my existing Yosemite install in any way.
Note : Adjust the usual BIOS settings after flashing : flashing will set all BIOS settings to default.
Even Clover survived and did not need any additional tweaks or a new install afterwards.Kudos for them.
Edit- After 1 week of use still perfect and no issues found.
