Thanks for the reply. I thought that this has to do with the compatibility of 290x cards with hackintosh's? I thought it could be helpful for others to hear all experiences with 290x installation and troubleshooting. But if this belongs somewhere else then I will start a new thread. Thanks...

I just went through this entire fourm and others. I purchased a 290x inserted into the system but my computer won't even show a startup screen (via DVI or HDMI). I booted with my GTX670 changed to system def 5,1 and then changed the card hoping it would at least startup and give me some sort...

How does the installation of the 290x relate to the mobo and CPU. Will this card work obo with gigabyte X79 UD3 and i7 3930. I have read that not having internal graphics on my CPU could create issues with the install. I have also read that it will work obo and that I just have to change my...

Do you think this would work with my rig gigabyte X79 UD3 intel i7 3930k The answer is definitely no as my CPU doesn't have internal graphics. I have been trying to find information about getting dual cards working for a long time on my current rig. I love everything about it but the...

You have dual graphics cards working obo with both working together or seperatly to run a ton of monitors. It is my understanding that hackintoshs can't run dual graphics cards like PC can with SLI. Advice on this would be HUGE for me. I currently have a GTX670 and FCPX crashes a bunch...

I never had any luck with clover...I think it's because my bios is set up incorrectly. The guide doesn't go into bios settings.

Thanks, I was able to find it, but the bios doesn't allow me to downgrade. I tried stepping down from F20 to F16 and then F11 but it says that it is an "outdated bios". I am going to try a new clover install as that is supposed to be more stable and easier to update in the future. I am not...

I has to get a RMA motherboard for my gigabyte X79 UD3. The new board came with bios F20. The machine had been functioning like a dream for the last 3 years. I am correct to assume that it is simply the bios that is causing this or is it another issue. I am unable to boot in safe mode. -x...

My X79 mobo has a broken piece within the CPU power input. Micro Center was unable to get it out. I either need to get this repaired or get a new board for my hackintosh. I am hesitant to get a different board as this computer simply works with these components. Are there other boards that...

Thanks, looks like I have to hope that el capitan supports it

I am getting audio lag when streaming video. It seems like a video card issue. Any idea which cards are 60hz?

So I have read people complaining about lack of 4K 60Hz but 4K 30Hz seems to be working correctly. I just ordered a vizio 70" 4K TV (http://www.amazon.com/VIZIO-M70-C3-70-Inch-Ultra-Smart/dp/B00T63YVAM) and am curious if my sandy bridge (nvidia GT640, i5 2500k, 16GB, GA-H61M-USB3-B3 hackitosh...

I just upgraded to FCPX 10.2 and OSX 10.10.3. Everything is work fine with the exception of one major thing. The magic bullet looks plugin DOES NOT work anymore. I am given a solid screen rather than seeing the video play. The issue is with the graphics card, there support obviously said...

Update was a breeze. Just had to reinstall audio via MB. Trim no longer works even when using trim enabler. The main issue is that FCPX third party plugins have no x and y orientation support. This is super strange that everything else would be working but only one piece of FCPX would not...

Have you tried using Trim Enabler (http://www.cindori.org/software/trimenabler/). It stops the service that checks for trim harddrives and allows me to boot. Using MB trim enabler on my X79 sandy system renders it unbootable, but using trim enabler worked on both my systems. That being said I...

have you tried to boot with the graphics card? Also, I have had luck doing clean installs. Then taking the HDD out of the computer and ran MB using another computer (HDD enclosure) then reinserting in the computer and seeing if it starts. If you had the computer up and running with 10.8.5 you...

Have you tried the 10.9.5 rollback kext within MB. See attached. This was a solution for my other mobo. I actually didn't have any issues upgrading on my X79 UD3 mobo. Make sure you removed the kexts and files as per the instructions (if upgrading). The following is my plist. Everything is...

I am having this same issue with my sandy bridge system that has never had any issue booting in the past. I am currently stuck on [PCI configuration begin] gigabyte H61 USB3 GT 640 i5 2500k I have tried all combinations of PCIRootUID=0/1 and npci=0x2000/0x3000. In the past all the...

I too am stuck at the white screen. Gigabyte H61 USB3 GT640 i5 2500. I ran -v and received the attached. Any thoughts? Never had an issue installing any previous versions. This is an update from a mavericks (removed the kexts and plist as per the instructions). A clean install does not work...

Will all of my apps and data be erased or when I choose to install yosemite on the drive will it just install the O
