I would not wait. First you have to wait for Haswell, then wait for Haswell desktop chips, then wait for Macs to support the desktop chips, and then wait for the right motherboards and confirmed builds. Whew, this could be a year or so.

CUDA Worth It? Procedure- 1. Get everything working. 2. Make bootable backup with Carbon Copy Cloner. 3. Screw around with CUDA to try to enable it. 4. If working make another backup. If not working give up on your graphics card and buy another-more compatible one, or a CUDA enabled one...

Hi, I'm building a ML 8.2 hackintosh, want to toss in a graphics card. What would you recommend in terms of "plug and play" Nvidia cards? Cheaper is better (no need for a $150 card).

Overclock as much as you can. A lot of processes do not use all cores, especially Final Cut studio applications, so more cycles out of one core make a lot of sense. Funny how Adobe will actually use your cores while rendering and Apple, who will sell you a 16 core Mac Pro, does not. CUDA is...

NVIDIA GT610 - 10.8 Fix 1. I bought at GT 610 (MSI) because the new Multibeast release notes indicate a fix the GT 610 issues with device ID. True or not? 2. My build works fine with HD4000 graphics (low res), audio works. But adding a MSI GT 610 causes kernel panic on boot (ML8.2) but it...

Except that disk utility lacks "Rebuild Cache" (does have repair permissions though).

I missed something- where did these go? No "utilities" anymore? I have not built a hackintosh for some time so I missed the boat, what do you do now to achieve these functions?

Also, I have a 240 GB SSD with SL on 140 GB and Lion on 100 GB. Anything special I need to do?

How to Best Configure An SSD in OSX (steps to take) I've just purchased a couple of SSD's, and was wondering what special steps if any need to be taken when using an SSD with SL, L, ML on my various builds? I plan on using Carbon Copy Cloner to copy the existing HDD onto the SSD, run...
