Hi All, I recently installed El Capitan on my system with a Gigabyte GA-P67-UD3-B3 motherboard. I've got it booting and working well mostly but I have a question. I have the UEFI Bios installed on the motherboard. During El Cap install I selected the Legacy UEFI option (both in Unibeast and...

In case anyone is still having problems, here is what I did when upgrading from Lion -> ML. I upgraded to F9 revision of the Bios for GA-P67A-UD3-B3. Not sure if this made a difference, because I was still having problems after I did this. 1. Download the proper DSDT from the database...

That was stock. 32 with no turbo really. I cranked up the turbo a bit, and im in 13 k region. Btw, with the 2600k you can get a base multiplier of 33 with this board and it will still boot.

Wow that did it. I re-enabled EIST. and bam, we're at 10 k. Anyone else having similar problems might look into that. Gordo you may wanna update your guide to include this post Bridge Helper reboot advice. Unless I missed it.

If Im reading this pic of my BIOS correctly, I have not reenabled speed step. Should it be reenabled?

Hi guys, So I did Gordo's build, followed his guide, and when I first got it all set up I ran Geekbench and swear I got in the 10K range with my build. I opened it today about 1.5-2 wks after my build, and ran it again. 5K, which seems really crappy for my build (i7 2600k, 16GBs ram). Attached...

What program are you using to burn? I assume you are booting from CD... if you see the Darwin boot loading screen you are doing fine. You need to switch discs out to the OSX snow leopard install disk. Then hit F5 to make it recognize you have switched. Then you hit enter to boot into the disc...

I truly don't understand the LED thing... probably its the gamer segment. Perhaps this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811352004&cm_re=fractal_case-_-11-352-004-_-Product also comes in black. Search the egg for fractal case

on the processor issue, I had a very similar question, this post may help you and was only from a couple days ago: http://www.tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=79&t=16530 I think it weighs the pros and cons from everybody. In your case, it sounds like the 950 is the call. Really give some...

Btw heres my prospective build for 2600k: basically i7 2600k, Giga radeon 5770, 16 GBs of Mem, and a GA-P67A-UD3-B3 Im looking into a SSD drive.

I'm a tinkerer, so I don't really mind a little trouble shooting to get it to work until I get full support. But I do need it to work, I have an immediate need to run Papers (which is a mac only app, very light weight and non resource intensive), maybe a little design work, but I can boot into...

Im contemplating building a Sandy Bridge i7 2600k vs. building a i7-950 similar to a cutomac pro. From what I read in gordos guide, I can probably get this SB system working, at least choked at 32x for now. Can anyone answer, do we expect that eventually the SBs will be natively supported...

Hi Guys heres my perspective build, very similar to the custo mac 3rd build: Intel Core i7-870 2.93GHz Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3 Gigabyte HD 5770 My question is on memory: I want to do 8 GBs but in two sticks of four GBs so I can upgrade easily to 16 down the road when I have some more cash. First...

Hey Guys, Quick buying question. I had a working hackintosh build: Gigabyte GA-P55-UDP4 ATI Radeon 4890 HD (MSI cyclone build) i5 750 However, I shipped it by UPS and UPS treated it like a football, and apparently broke the graphics card :x . Hopefully, they haven't broken more. So while I...

Re: Installation hangs every time GA-P55-UDP4 i5 Radeon 4890 I solved this particular problem: I used the GE iBoot installer. So this appears to to have solved the ACPI Hang problem (ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin:: Start) with my setup. Lep 10.6.3 Other specifics: optical dive on SATA 0 hard...

Re: Installation hangs every time GA-P55-UDP4 i5 Radeon 4890 I tried the one thats linked on the iBoot Page, downloaded it yesterday, it has a modified date of 12/3/10. I also tried legacy iBoot. Anyone think I should use the graphics enabler one?

Hi so my build is: Gigabyte GA-P55-UDP4 ATI Radeon 4890 HD (MSI cyclone build) i5 750 The install always hangs at the point in shown in the picture AACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin:: Start ... I followed the iBoot instructions for a gigabyte board (Optimized defaults, HTP set to 64 bits, hard drive...
