Following up: After running with the G.SKILL RAM for a while, my system is much more stable running with sleep than with the Crucial RAM, but unfortunately there is some lingering instability, though the symptoms are a bit different than previously.
With the Crucial RAM I was having crashes...
After making due with disabling sleep on my system almost since building it last fall, I finally decided to try replacing RAM. I had been using the Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB kit (BLS2KIT8G3D1609DS1S00) that I'd bought following the October 2014 Buyer's Guide. I replaced it with G.SKILL...
I used the fix from this thread:

The version for 10.10.2 continues to work under 10.10.3.
Thanks for your reply, Stork, and thanks for your suggestions. PSU is OK, but I will keep the others in mind for when I decide to make another push to get sleep working.
In my case, I wouldn't describe what I experienced as a "freeze": the system doesn't lock up. Rather after waking I would get...
Hi Stork, Do you know whether the Sport memory was removed for a particular reason? I bought the Sport following the guide for my build, but had a problem with crashes and spontaneous reboots following longer periods of sleep, which I suspect might be memory related. Luckily sleep is low...
Apparently smooth update via MAS running clover. Did have one semi-freeze a few hours after updating; not sure what that was about yet.
Had to update the boot screen garble fix with the version for 10.10.2. See the first post here...
I had a problem that sounds similar with Adobe Lightroom 4. After migrating from a Time Machine backup, Lightroom would crash every time I tried to access LR's preferences. LR worked fine when started in a new user account, even when loading the same catalog and using the same preferences...
Sorry for the long delay in replying to you; I've been busy with other projects and not keeping up with the forums.
Here are the specs of Gigabyte's website:

I'm running a 24" display at 1920x1200 over DVI. I think others have higher resolutions working over HDMI, but anyone interested...
Congrats on your apparent success and on your persistence! I'm a little bummed you suspect the Crucial Ballistix may be part of the problem since I don't want to have to pay up to replace mine and I really want to stick with 16GB. Nonetheless, I'm glad to hear there's a possibility of getting...
1) Yes, vendor is listed as "Generic" (checked both ways).
2) No, I haven't seen that error when checking disks yet.
Thanks for continuing to work at this problem. I've been busy with other things and haven't been testing actively.
I've only just built my first hackintosh so I can't really comment on any of the long-term maintenance issues, but I shared many of the same concerns before embarking on this. I tried to minimize surprises by closely imitating a build by one of the mods here -- Stork's Hector build, in my case...
I recently posted a reply to a similar question by someone else over here and described by build:

As to you specific questions:
1) For large raw files, especially in PS, I think you'll noticeably benefit from...
Sounds like the problem some of us are having and have been discussing in this thread:
http://www.tonymacx86.com/general-help/148289-memory-corrupted-after-longer-sleep.html
Part of what is going on is that Yosemite will do a darkwake every two hours or so, ignoring any darkwake=0 setting...

GA-H97N-WIFI here. Same problem. System usually doesn't recognize BT as being available, and when it does it didn't seem to be working (though I don't really use BT and my testing was cursory).
