Just did a fresh install to test this out and also confirmed performance. Thanks to OP!

Will now do direct upgrade of my 10.10.5 and report back.

Update - completed direct upgrade without issue and I'll be darn, GB scores are UP! Now at 26K with my 4.2 Ghz overclock and 64-bit test. As for other issues:

USB 3.0 - still don't work, but I got a PCIE card as a solution.
Sound - never got it to work on 10.10.5, but using high end USB DACs anyway so don't need.

That's it so will try all my apps and report back in case there are any troubles.

For overclocking, I wouldn't do it unless you have a dual boot into Windows. All of the overclocking guides and tools are Windows only. Plus, Windows blue screens so often on it's own, it recovers pretty well when you overclock too much and crash. OSX, I don't think will do as well.

Also, you need good CPU cooling. Stock cooler is not good enough. I use water cooling. Now it's just as easy to find a complete water cooled solution that installs as easy as a normal air cooler. You can take a look at corsair.com for several options.

Anyway, if you decide to try just search on Youtube and there are many video guides on how to. Once you find a stable overclock in Windows, you need to add an SSDT for OSX to recognize the higher speed. Here is one that I use for 5820K.
