Hello, im working in my new build to get it works for some months ago.
I started learning about the magic of the hackintosh community when i searched the components to build my actual machine.
Im a music producer who worked with Windows and now with mac (logic pro 9 and 10, and Pro tools)

I tried a lot of times to get it works 100% stable, with a lot of configurations of other users and mods with my hardware,but i encountered different problems that im posting now :D
I bought the recommended in the Buyer´s Guide at the end of 2013- starts of 2014.

This are my Components:

Processor : Intel Core i7 4770K
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z87X-UD3H
Graphic Card: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 (So im Working with the integrated graphics of the motherboard)
Ram: Kingston DDR3 16GB 2400Mhz Hyperx Beast cl11 k2

HARD DRIVE 1: 1TB HD (MODEL:
MAXTORSTM31000340AS) ---Im using this until I can buy a SSD.
HARD DRIVE 2 : 1TB SHD (MODEL: HDST1000DX001-1CM162)
---Im Using this with Windows 8.1 and works so quick.
HARD DRIVE 3: 1TB HD (MODEL:ST31000528AS)---Im using this for personal data, and libraries.
DVD Reader : HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH24NSB0
WIFI ADAPTER : D-Link Wireless N Nano USB Adapter (DWA-131) -Working with Windows and tested with mavericks(with an apk installer that i found in the forum).
MultiCard Reader : COOLBOX CR-700 MULTILECTOR USB3.0

MONITOR 1: ASUS MX239 1920 x 1080 24.2" (53 cm x 31 cm)
MONTOR 2 : Acer AL1916W 1440 x 900 19.1" (41 cm x 26 cm)

Could anyone, help me with the configuration please?
What do i need to install with multibest? (if anyone could link me a .mb or an image with it would make me so happy :lol: )
Do i have to edit the chameleon boot?
What i have to edit in the bios?

I have my Maxtor disk connected in "P0" Sata port.
My Windows SHD in "P1"
And my Data HD in "P2"

I reset all the bios to the optimized default, then i edited the boot order to
1º "P0- MAXTORSTM31000340AS"
2º "P1- HDST1000DX001-1CM162"
and i disable all the other devices (the Multicard reader and other drives)
to avoid "EBIOS read error: Error 0x31 Block 0x0 Sectors 0" that happened to me.

the second problem is when i boot into mavericks. At the boot time, when the apple logo is charging the OS,just when the login window should appear, the screen goes black and then start fuzzing like and old analog TV. I found some users with the same problem, but I have not found any solution.
Other user with this problem recorded this video. Curiously he has the same monitor.

and here the post:

And here are other problems that i found :

1-The ram only works maximum at 2200Mhz. When i enter into the Bios settings, the memory frequency is in "auto mode", and it select under 1600mhz. So if i put 2400mhz, i can't boot the cpu. And the same with 2300mhz. only works with 2200mhz and less
2-Eventually freeze and i need to restart.
3-This problem happens under windows and mac, when i have the cpu off but connected to the plug, all my devices ( External Hard Drive, Pendrive, wireless keyboard....) still having power, and their have light WHY!??:crazy:
4- The VGA Monitor works with my Windows and not when i tried in Mavericks ¿Its VGA compatible with Mavericks??

thanks you so much and thanks for this fantastic support!
 
There are 100's (if not 1000's) of people using that very configuration. None of them are checking here to see if you have any questions... Do a forum search for Z87X-UD3H and you'll easily find your answers.
