Hi just though I would share my experience with GA-Z87X-D3H build.
My components are:
GA-Z87X-D3H motherboard
Corsair CML16GX3M2A1600C10 Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 Mhz CL10 XMP Performance Desktop Memory Kit Black
i74770 process
SanDisk SDSSDX-240G-G25 Extreme 240GB SATA 6GB/s 2.5 Inch Internal SSD
Zotac - geforce 8600 GT 512MB graphics card
Sata DVD drive
3x1GB internal hard drives
1 SSD 120Gb for Windows 8
My first build worked great with 10.8.4 Mountain Lion - Very very fast. - No problems with booting or graphics. Audio not tested as I use external Sound card.
Was looking forward to try Mavericks, so using the same components
I did the install, straight away I had issues.
USB installer I had to -X-S-V, GraphicsEnabler=Yes, PCIRootUID=1 and also use a USB 2.0 Slot
after this I managed to follow the guide and I installed Mavericks on the 240gb SSD.
had to use -X GraphicsEnabler=Yes, PCIRootUID=1 to load MAVERICKS SSD 240GB
I tried Easy Beast and installed ok
Rebooted - Had problems again loading up the Harddrive Mavericks 240GBssd
so Did GraphicsEnabler=Yes, PCIRootUID=1
Loaded up again.
So did Multibeast again and added audio ALC898 -
Also pluged in CDROM DRIVE, SSD120GB, rebooted
Had problems again get it to load.
Having issues every time I reboot now.
Ive giving up after 2 days of trying multiple variations. MountainLion was running like a dream. Dont know if anybody else if having similar problems or If somebody can spot what Im doing wrong.
Luckily I cloned the SSD240GB to a Large mechanical Hard drive, which boots ok with same BIOS settings.
Thanks
