Unibeast version 5.2 / MBR Partition
 
For anyone who saw my previous posts about my system only being able to boot into Yosemite half the time.. I've figured it out for now.
Turns out the system didn't like that I had a second monitor plugged in using a VGA to DVI cable. I unplugged it and now it boots every time.

Still don't know why it didn't like that though.

Everything seems to be running smoothly now, although I've noticed that my Geekbench scores are around 2000 less than when I installed the OS with Chimera instead of Clover.

Anyone else experiencing that? Or know what could be causing that?

Another user here with Chimera had a lower geekbench score than with Clover...i think you can survive if your score isn't 36000 but 34000 or so...:D
Consider that your build compared to a trashcan mac pro is less expansive and more powerful!

Try with another USB stick...or format the current one and create it again! Try every possible solution.

Ahahah I've already tried 3 differents usb keys ;)

But now I have maybe a solution to try... When I try to set the USB key on Forced FDD in the bios settings I can get boot0 : error message which might be related to the MBR partition, so I am going to try with this set up and a GUID partition Unibeast fresh key !

Let's cross the finger but I feel I am really unliky this time :p
 
Haha I ain't tryin to complain or anything.

I'm just wondering if something isn't functioning correctly.

It was around 20500 before and now its around 18500
 
Quick update for the Pro Tools Hackintosh I am building. I figured out that setting the Bios/Advanced/Onboard Configuration PCI Slot 2 to 2X instead of 4X (as in the guide) made my Thunderbolt Omni reappear in OSX, never had problems in Win10. I am doing sound for video so sync is very important to me. All good here.

However I am experiencing trouble with QuicKeys, an automation software for macros. I often get the spinning wheel. In the console I see an unknown processor type and when benchmarking with geekbench I reach a score of approx. 20000, in windows 10 I see 34000. So there is something going on...

As Raid system I use a 2bigThunderbolt2 12TB HDD configured as Raid 0....I know...I preferred speed to security because as you know, to load a big sample, for example, Lass orchestral sounds you need mostly speed to reduce time especially if you are playing live. So, with raid 0 I've all the speed I need.

You can always have a backup of your raid 0, on some cheaper slower drive, so that would also be my preference :)
I know Raid 0 is good for reading and writing big files, But isn't a single SSD faster still faster with this then a raid 0 of 2x7200rpm? But of course you won't go out and buy 12TB SSD...

Did you disable speedstep in bios?

I know...but as you write too a 12TB of SSD is very very very very expansive atm...so i use my raid 0 for writing/reading samples/presets and another raid for backup. Hdd's drive in Lacie2big raid are 2x7200RPM
I use a Buffalo 12TB Terastation as backup unit too :D
