The build seems very stable with the last configuration but I wonder what could happen changing it from iMac 14.1 to iMac 15.1. I don't have any 5k monitor of course, but isn't the 280x more similar to the m290x of the iMac Retina than the nVidia in iMac 14.1? What do you think about?

I installed this configuration with MB, moved the EXTRA folder to EFI partition, starts from SSD with no flags...it seems smooth and good but still no good results on the hardest Luxmark benchmark....weird. What do you think about setting the system definition to iMac 15.1(retina)? I don't...

Hello everyone! First of all thanks to Tonymac and to all the other people for the help I already received on this forum. Here's my case. I did a fresh install on a samsung SSD of Yosemite, with the 280x plugged in, updating to 8m BIOS as suggested in this guide...

Hello, I have same mobo/graphics (the gigabyte version), do you mind to share your multibeast configuration? I'm experiencing kernel panics at booting and my Lexmark benchmark is way under what I was expencting from the 280x (recognized as 7xxx). Thank you.

Please add the Gigabyte Radeon r9 280x OC, thank you.

Here I am after purchasing a gigabyte r9 280x i did a yosemite fresh install, did the EFI trick but I have some issues. First of all the system sometimes goes to kernel panic at boot(apple logo loading), but it never panic if i flag -v. I'm thinking of the multibeast 1080 boot flag being the...

You're totally right, I do have a time machine backup of the RAID0, it was just a first economical solution when I first built my hackintosh, I'm slowly improving the system. I don't know yet if it will be useful to restore a RAID0 again (a clear one, erasing the old) to store big Gb media and...

My goal is to do a fresh install for Yosemite, as I currently run Mavericks on a RAID0 mechanical couple of disks. I bought a pair of samsung 250 Gb SSDs, one for yosemite and all the apps, and the second one to store the temporary FCPX projects (when the media files are not too big). I will...

I ordered the "11221-12-40G" one, as is the one I can have in my trusted shop here in Greece. In one week I hope to feedback good news!

Great, as usual. Thank you very much

The 20G appears to be the Toxic version http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NJGRLSQ/ref=psdc_284822_t1_B00IPZW686/ Is like yours?

One last thing, just to be 100% sure This is the model I meant, I understood we talk about the same thing: http://www.amazon.com/Sapphire-VAPOR-X-PCI-Express-Graphics-11221-12-40G/dp/B00IPZW686 Thanx again

Unbelievable!:shock: So many thanks Rwillett, my FCPX craves for power, you gave me my weekend mission!:headbang:

Yes, that's what I mean! I'm ordering it right now! If is ok, could you please tell me which hardware-system config. are you using? Clover or Chimera install? Thanks again

Sorry rwillett, is your version the tri-x one or the Double Dissipation? I'm wondering if is essentially the same, but with different dissipation set,because I can't find the DD here. Thank you
