I have successfully built a new computer with GA-Z87N-WIFI and Intel Core i7-4790K. I partitioned the 1TB HDD to 599GB for OSX Mavericks and 400GB for Windows 7. I installed Mavericks and got it all up and running so that it would boot into OSX from the HDD etc. Then I created a bootable USB...
I must report my progress at last. I installed a Celeron G1820 and was then able to sucessfully get into the BIOS, which was F2, and successfully flashed it to F5. Then swapped the CPU back to the i7-4790K, and I'm currently back in the BIOS. Now about to setup the BIOS and then install...

My son wants me to build him a CustoMac Mini Deluxe but he wants a case with LEDs i.e. a nice flashy case. Can anyone advise on a suitable case please?
I have a system running with the Gigabyte Z77X-UP5TH motherboard, running Mavericks 10.9.2. My default web browser is Chrome. If I start a video in Chrome from e.g. YouTube the sound is ok to begin with and then distorts into crackle and then stops. Without changing anything, if I run the...
