Updated via App Store. Quick and painless, and no unwanted surprises (yet).

I followed the instructions in this video: After doing so both Win 10 and El Capitan registered the additional boost, and I no longer need to use MSI Afterburner (which I initially used to establish a stable overclock).

I flashed the GPU to add overclock settings so that OS X can interpret them. Clock boost went from 1190 to 1291, and Memory went from 1750 to 1950.

Tweaked it a little. Raised Max Cache from 40 to 42.

I've managed to get a stable overclocked x99 Deluxe 5930k working, but I'm still not overly confident of updating in the future. Here's a link to my previous progress: http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/last-minute-advice-for-1st-timer-see-any-potential-problems-with-these.188019/ Attached is...

Managed to tweak performance (disabling EIST helped):

El Capitan 10.11.2 Asus x99 Deluxe i7-5930K 32GB RAM 2666 MHz DDR4 Samsung 950 Pro 512GB NVMe M.2 SSD NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN X

The first set of scores are from the Win 10 drive of the dual boot, and the second are from El Capitan. By disabling EIST the OSX scores increased considerably (by at least 30%), but there's still a noticeable gap in GPU performance.

After first installing Win 10 on the other M.2 SSD (and settling on a decent configuration and overclock), I had a good go at compiling my first Hackintosh. It's exactly 7 days now since I started and I reckon I've put together a fairly stable build. A lot of hard work, swearing, and many many...

Thanks again for the heads up. I'll check out those threads you suggested. I'd be happy to settle for Yosemite, but if El Capitan is a viable option then of course I'll go for it. Much research awaits :)

That's a good point, and one I can't can't answer with any real degree of veracity. I have seen other builds posted featuring both the x99 motherboard and i7-5930K CPU, though neither of which are listed in the recommended section. I appreciate it will probably be more difficult to get working...

Greetings one and all. I'm about to dive balls deep into previously uncharted territory, and build myself a lovely new Hackintosh. After much deliberation (and persistent hesitation) I decided to take the plunge, so I now please ask of you who have the time and inclination to review my tentative...
