Hackintosh + 4K @ 60Hz Advice

[arisythila]

Hey guys,

For system specs I have the following.

GA-Z87N-WIFI
16GB of memory @ 1866Mhz
Intel Core i7-4770k
nVidia Geforce GTX 780ti graphics card
Dell UltraSharp UP3214Q 32 Inch 4K display.

I can plug things into my MBP Retina 15" laptop and they work well. However, I can only get my hackintosh to work @ 30hz.

Wanted to see if anybody had any ideas or clues on what I can do to get this bumped up to 60Hz. I was able to get my AMD R9-290X to come up with 4k @ 30 Hz, but wasn't able to do 60Hz.

Any hints or tips or tricks? Anybody tried this yet? I am trying to get rid of Windows but haven't been able to do so yet.

Thanks,

Are you connecting to the Hack via DP or HDMI? HDMI will only yield 30hz, according to Dells' tech specs.

Thanks for the questions.

I am doing it all VIA Displayport. DP1.2.

So I should be able to do the full 60hz, I can do it on my 2014 MBP, also on the same system in windows. But like I said I want to move away from windows, and really dont want to spend the cash on a Mac Pro.

Thanks,

What version of OS X and graphics drivers are you running?

Same issue here.

Trying the Dell UP3214Q with a GTX 970 but only runs at 30hz.
