Short update: The SSD was 4k too, so I needed to apply the fix anyway. It seems that all new drives, SSD or HDD, are using the advances format.

Thanks alot!

Are you saying that the fix doesn't get copied over if I clone my system?

Hello community, I bought a SSD to which I want to clone OSX to from my HDD. My HDD had the 4k boot0 error and I fixed it with the command: dd if=/usr/standalone/i386/boot1h of=/dev/disk0s2 But how do I revert this fix? SSDs don't need this fix afaik. Thanks, sweetsour

I need to revert solution 1. I bought a SSD, SSDs don't need the 4k fixes afaik. Anyone can tell me how I can revert the fix? Thanks!

@brandur, Can you get the fans spinning under load? My EVGA GTX 660 doesn't spin up when it's under load, and GPU gets hot. I wonder if anyone else has this problem. Using newest Nvidia Webdriver.

Nah dude, I figured it out myself. http://www.tonymacx86.com/mavericks-desktop-support/112437-no-gpu-power-managment-5.html solves it. Multibeast FakeSMC HW App is outdated. Use the one from sourceforge (HW App 6.1) and everything is fine.

My build: H77N-WIFI i5-2300 GTX660 8GB DDR3 I installed recommended settings (DSDT free) + FakeSMC + FakeSMCPlugin + FakeSMC App. Everything works. But FakeSMC App reports GPU core clock to be always at maximum. Also, no fan control is possible for either CPU or GPU, because maximum...

OK status update: I got my new card, turns out it was me forgetting to install FakeSMC. Ofc the card won't report any temps because OSX has no ways to retrieve it. Make sure you install FakeSMC, FakeSMC plugin, and FakeSMC application is very recommended as well.

First off, my build is almost exact the recommended one - GA H77N Wifi with Intel CPU etc. I have an EVGA GTX 660 installed. Mavericks 10.9.1. All Multibeast settings are minimum ones to get everything going, non-DSDT install. And I have Graphics Enabler = No. The system ran perfectly...

Hi, just got myself a H77N. Now I was checking out the UEFI when I found the option to "set x Multiplicator for an unlocked CPU". Does that mean I can use the Board with any K-Processor? i.e. 2500K I thought only Z77N supports K-Processors? I've read somewhere else that Z77N can adjust...

Thanks, that helped me with my build. I will go for HD 3000.

Hi, just want to ask which graphics hardware is most compatible with OSX Mavericks, and require the least effort of setup. IGP Options for me are: Intel HD 2000 Intel HD 2500 Intel HD 3000 I have a GTX560Ti too. How compatible is this GPU card? As compatible as the GTX 6xx and 7xx...

zaptoons you are awesome! Thanks for your answers, they are very informative and I hardly ever found someone who is even that much patient to help a newbie. *Thumbup* I'll make sure to follow all your suggestions. By the way I own a 2012 Macbook Air, I don't quite expect my build to...

Hey folks, So I plan to build my first Hackintosh with tonymacx86's recommended mini-ITX build ( The One with GA-H77N-WIFI ). I have several questions regarding this: 1# What is your experience with this build? Does it have good native Software Update compatibility (since it's a natively...
