[Success] SquadSeven's Build - i7 4770k - GA-Z87X-UD3H - 16GB RAM - GTX 780 3GB

For anyone having random freezing issues with this board, I recommend removing HDEnabler1.kext and using the vanilla AppleHDA.kext. Making those changes stopped all the freezing issues for me.

Thanks for the tip, I will try it today.

Edit: How do you get sound after removing HDAEnabler1.kext? Do you use an external sound card?

Hey SquadSeven.

I was wondering if you would be able to help me out with something. I recently built my hackintosh, and have the same motherboard and bios. I set up my bios configuration just how you did, and installed the settings on multibeast the same way since they worked on my system. I was having problems with the computer not fully going to sleep or being able to sleep. I am not using the same graphic card but I am using the GTX 660 ti. I was wondering if sleep wasn't originally working and you did something to fix it?

Please let me know, as it would be a great help.

Edit:
I actually fixed my issue by disabling hibernation, and adding darkwake=10 to the bootflags.

Hi SquadSeven

I have the same build and i run Adobe After Effects CC in Maverick with this problem

Ray-tracing on the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5,0 or later. For now, ray-tracing will use the CPU.

Do you have a solution for this ? Thanks

Hi, i've the same config but after multibeast settings reboot is freezing at the apple screen, i've tried -x ,-v flag but it gives nothing, anyone got an idea ? Could it be the hardware assembly in cause ? It's the first time i assemble computer..

hi try booting with your unibeast drive and run disk util then repair permissions. Next try booting without unibeast drive in safe mode (-x) and re-run multibeast.

Hello! Sorry for the late reply, been busy recently.

You can actually run it on GPU, although it says its unsupported. I'm running AE CC 12.1. Under previews, preferences, GPU information, you can select GPU unsupported for ray tracing, it'll use CUDA for that then.

For other versions of AE, a quick search on the internet will yield results on how to add the GTX 780 to a list of supported cards via a text edit hack.

Let me know how it goes yea? Cheers.

Sleep actually works perfectly for me without any modifications...strange eh?

Hi, i practically have the same build, exept that im using the On Board graphics, i seem to be stuck in the apple logo loading mavericks. Can anyone lead me to the proper BIOS settings with the on board graphics card and the proper multibeast settings? thanks!

Here are the proper BIOS settings, courtesy of SquadSeven:

2.1 Load optimized defaults
2.2 Performace > X.M.P. > Profile 1
2.3 Peripherals > xHCI Mode > AUTO
2.4 Peripherals > xHCI Hand-OFF > ENABLED
2.5 Peripherals > EHCI Hand-OFF > ENABLED
Skip step 2.6 and 2.7 if you want to use your internal graphics chip
(2.6 Peripherals > Internal Graphics > DISABLED)
(2.7 Peripherals > Init Display First > PCIe slot of your graphics card)
2.8 Power Management > Wake on Lan > DISABLED
2.9 BIOS Features > Boot Options, change it to your boot disk but pick the one that starts with P2 or some number like that. Do not select the UEFI version else you will get the missing operating system error.
2.10 Save and Exit Bios.

As for multibeast settings, all i did was load Short's config file from this thread http://www.tonymacx86.com/user-buil...-build-i7-4770k-ga-z87x-ud3h-gtx-770-4gb.html
and then added TRIM enabler for my SSD
