I've built myself a Mackintosh with this Hardware:
Intel corre i5 4670k
Gigabyte GA-z97x-Gaming 3
Samsung 840 Evo 120GB
Seagate 1TB Desktop HDD
Sapphire Radeon R9 280 (No x)

... And I hd some issues with the installation of Mac OS Yosemite, but I solved them all.
I'm going to list these issues here for people who get them too.
First of all, I simply followed the official Instalation guide here.
The problems:
While booting on the UniBeast Stick it says some errors (striking: 0xdeadbeef 0x dead0000, System up time in nanoseconds : <a number>) -> Go to the BIOS ->Bios features -> OS Type -> Windows -> CSM -> Disable -> OS Type -> Other OS , First Tab in BIOS (don't know the name right now) -> Memory -> X.M.P. -> Profile 1 and boot with -x -v
Same issue while Booting on the Yosemite Installation right after installation of the USB Stick : Same Stuff
BUT when you have booted the first time successfully into MacOSX USE MULTIBEAST->QuickStart->EasyBeast else you won't get rid of these problems until you do it.
General Help : Booting with -x ...
 
I have a very similar setup and have had the best success with using EasyBeast, post installation. My only outstanding issue seems to be that I lose sound after sleep/hibernation. What has been your experience?
