Hello,

I am not really a noob of mackintosh world but I've been trying for months to install Mavericks on my build for months and there is still a problem.

My build:
-Intel Core i5 3330
-8 GB RAM
-Gigabyte H77M D3H (this mb is compatible because some setups are working with it)
-AMD RADEON R9270X

Bios Setup:
Exactly like in this post http://www.tonymacx86.com/user-buil...el-core-i3-3210-evga-geforce-gtx-660-2gb.html

Boot flags: I've tried many but without any results

Problem:
The problem is that i can't even access the installation screen
When I have the Chimera screen, I select USB (Mavericks usb bootable disk) then i write -v as a boot flag. I see all the lines and it is starting (no crash or no black screen). But, when the command lines desappear, I can see the black cursor for 2 seconds and then the coloured spinning wheel :beachball:. It is stuck on this spinning wheel. The background is grey/white.
I think this error is linked with SMC...

Here are some photos of my verbose logs:
