Guide
BBCode sucks, so here is an HTML file that has the instructions: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3777028/2013 Hackintosh/v1.2.0.html

Right now everything is working except for USB 3.0. Any ideas?

Updates
v1.0.0: First revision
v1.1.0: Added ethernet capability and more RAM
v1.2.0: All working + temp monitor except USB 3.0

EXCELLENT guide. Very well put together, very informative, and, overall, *very* polished.

My thankings are without bounds.

Hi emb1995
I use this kext to enable USB3 but i do not test the speed

I can confirm that the PXHCD Kext above worked. All 4 of the USB 3.0 ports on the back are now working! The ASMEDIA USB 3.0 Package installer did NOT work. It showed the drives, but they would not mount.

Im using a USB 2.0 Kingston Travel 32GB and a USB 3.0 Hitachi Touro.

NOTE: The speed is Garbage. USB 2.0 at best. :/ - 38MB Read/Write, and I get about 180 on my gigabyte Hackintosh.

I have a quick question, will I be able to use this dsdt with my motherboard? I am using the z75 pro3 board

 

[LookToTheRight]

Nooo you will not be able to. They are completely different. Search around on the forums, I'm sure you'll find something.

any chance you give a updated tutorial for 10.8.3? i have pretty much the same specs as you except instead of GTX 660 TI i have a GTX 660 thanks!

Will these Bios settings allow Windows 7 to run properly? I'm wanting to dual boot windows and osx on the same machine.
