The reason why I say Nvidia should fix their drivers properly is they seemed to have rushed the newer drivers out, you posted them within a couple of hours of 10.9.2 being released. Apple doesn't seem to care about making proper drivers that include support for GK110b, maybe because they switched to using AMD in the new Mac Pro. Whatever the case my machine was running fine before upgrading to 10.9.2 now kernel panics and unreliability.

I have Gigabyte Z87X-UD5H.
 
are you using OC memory? or have your system agent/IO voltages on anything other than auto? did you install the firmware update for board that came out recently that improved stability? All gigabyte 8 series boards got an update (and while it only listed support for new 4th generation cpus it did in fact change other things for the better)

10.9.2 seems to have changed SOMETHING, but it seems unrelated to nvidia's drivers. makes a lot of gpus on a lot of random boards unstable all of a sudden. EVGA motherboards for example seem to only boot into a gray screen and hang as of 10.9.2. My gigabyte board started seeing nvidia channel timeouts ONLY on 10.9.2 unless i raised the IO voltages from +0.1 to +0.3 (or auto, auto works good on latest gigabyte firmware in 10.9.2, memory overclock though needs custom, but cause of 10.9.2 i have to raise io more than usual, only on 10.9.2 for some reason). Just weird random things related to something apple changed (or screwed up, not sure if its intended yet) in 10.9.2.

No just stock everything. No overclocking. I did in fact update the firmware a couple of weeks ago when that thread was posted, haven't noticed any difference.

Some good info you posted though.

Updated to 10.9.2 using the System Update. The Nvidia Web driver in earlier posts on this thread is not compatible, however, this one is: http://us.download.nvidia.com/W68s843JXDZ1FhKmnrfhz8rPdfv7rKfM/WebDriver-331.01.01b15.pkg

After reboot, my monitors weren't turning on, so I rebooted without using any kernel flags (I might have tried nv_disabled=1). Once I got to the desktop, I installed the newest Nvidia Web driver I listed above. I also reenabled Trim.

Everything looks good and is running smooth now!

Just an FYI: The stock Nvidia drivers that come with 10.9.2 don't appear to work well, but were enough to get me to the desktop and install the Web drivers. With the stock drivers, only one monitor worked (not my displayport monitor), and the graphics seemed to stuttuer.

I downloaded the drivers and restarted without nv_disable=1 and still get a black screen.

Once you install the drivers reboot and boot using nv_disable=1 one last time, the reason for this is when you install the nvidia driver it doesn't automatically begin using that as your default video driver, it will still use the OS X driver until you tell it otherwise. On the top notification bar you should see an Nvidia logo, click that and choose the Nvidia driver, then reboot. You should be able to boot in without nv_disable=1
 
Thank you for your response. I have enabled and restarted my mackintosh several times. I still get black screen. However, I am able to view and control the computer by screen sharing and remotely controlling it, but the monitor stays asleep. Do you have any other suggestions?

I suspect screen sharing is using your onboard graphics which is why you can see it. Are you sure you properly installed the correct driver? Nvidia released a final version for 10.9.2 which I can confirm works with my EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Ti Superclocked. Link is here:

Yes, I updated the drivers to the newer version that just came out and still had no success. I also uninstalled it and went back to the older version just to mAke sure. Still got the same results. I tried two different ports on the 780 ti including the hdmi and still the same results. The monitor sleeps while I can view the hackintosh remotely.

The hackintosh works almost flawlessly with my gtx 760... But I was hopin to return it if i could just get this 780 to to work.
