Okay I just purchased a new GA-Z77-DS3H with i5-3570K. Purchased Mountain Lion 10.8.2, followed Tonymac's guide to the tee. The only issue I had was getting my onboard ethernet to work. I used the most updated Multibeast and chose the Atheros driver with no luck. I had to put in a RTL 8139 card in and got it working with a little work. What I had to do on that was take out the IONetworkFamily kext and copy it to my desktop. Then deleted the one in the /S/L/E directory. Then I had to use kext utility and place that into the extensions directory. Then I inserted the RTL 8139 kext into the plugin folder of the IONetworkFamily kext. Then I just dropped the IO kext on the kext utility. This was the only way to get Mountain Lion to see the 8139 and get it to work.
So, I tried the samething with the AtherosL1cEthernet.kext but no luck. I don't know if Gigabyte has changed the builtin card or not but I know in Windows 7 it shows Atheros AR8161/8165 PCI-E. Is this the same as most of you have? Just cannot figure out why this wouldn't work at all.
Everything else works great, the HD4000 works great, everything works to include the USB 3 ports. Only issue is the onboard ethernet. Also I have F8 bios...
