I have been having graphics problems the whole time I've had a hackintosh (8 months)
I used to have a Zotac GT 440 and it kind of worked with GraphicsEnabler=Yes. The problem is that I would have a system freeze almost every day. The cursor would move but the system stopped working. I would get a beach ball and would need to do a hard reset. I tried many things on the forum with no success. I believe its called the fermi freeze.
I thought that getting an out of the box video card like the GT 640 would fix my problems. Now things are much worse. I use GraphicsEnabler=No and the system boots fine. The problem is that when I try to do anything the cursor moves slow and the system freezes. If I wait 60 seconds I can move the cursor 1 inch before it freezes again.
This is the video card that I bought.

My motherboard is Asus P8Z77-V. I have a 3770K
I have tried both MacPro 3,1 and MacMini 5,1
I have tried a fresh install with no success. I am on 10.8.2
I don't think it's a faulty video card since its running fine in Windows 8. I tried a video card benchmark test and everything is normal.
Any ideas would be appreciated. I'm so frustrated.
