This is my first post on this site, so don't be too harsh.:)

First things first, thanks to everyone who helped me out over at the Porting Team suggesting hardware and helping me along. If you haven't heard of the site go check it it here http://portingteam.com/frontpage

Now on to the build, and the small issue I have. PLEASE suggest things I should do to make the system more stable/work better for me.

MultiBeast Settings
Please tell me if these are correct and if they are wrong tell me what to add!

BIOS Settings Version F14 - Pictures from thelostswede and the_gael
Once again please tell me if this looks good or not and how to fix them!!!

Issues so far!
The one thing plaguing me that I am kinda annoyed with (I like perfection) are the USB ports ejecting them selves upon waking up. The bizarre thing is that this only happens with the 2.0 ones. The 3.0 ports appear fine!!! Btw, I know about Jettison but don't really like the idea of having an app for something that should be fixable.

Other then that I have a perfectly stable system on both Windows 7 and Mountain Lion!

Once again please provide advice for the MultiBeast Settings and the BIOS settings.

That being said if anyone thinks this is a good build, feel free to have fun!!!

Thanks in advance for any help!
 
rynotheking14: I just completed my new Hackintosh build too and I am also MOST of the way there. I have the GeForce GTX 680 like yours but I cannot get it to play video in Premiere Pro CS6. I don't know if you do any video editing but I wondered if you had tried to get your GTX 680's OpenCL and Cuda to operate. I was so excited to complete my build, and I bought such cool stuff to make this a truly great machine, but now I find that I cannot get it to work for its primary purpose: video editing. I need to either buy a lessor card or use this thing with Windows. If you have any tips on this or have had success with the issues I've mentioned above please let me know.
Congratulations on your sweet Hackintosh build!
