Mavericks - Success GA-Z77X-UP5 TH & GTX670

[gts_215i]

Success....

Had a few problems with the Fusion Drive, but using latest versions of software seemed to fix it.

Everything working well, with the exception of iMessage - tried all the fixes listed for 10.84 and 10.85 - but still not working.

Same board...same issues. Please reply if you find a fix.

Thanks!

Initially everything I tried wouldn't enable iMessage -

Turn computer on this morning & it is working...

funny thing it didn't work 6 hours ago though. (no changes)

I still have FileNVRam 1.1.2 in my /extra/modules folder - no other changes !

No password reset !

Face Time also appears to be working, but will test further later.

TheSleepWalker,

Though it is for Mountain Lion, the settings should be exactly the same to get Unibeast and Multibeast going. You need to change your BIOS settings beforehand to reflect what is shown as well as use the specific boot settings I mentioned. Once you have the correct settings your stick should boot.

To Be Clear My Setup -

GA-Z77X-UP5 TH
GTX670
TL-WDN4800
IO Gear 4.0 Bluetooth Dongle / Belkin 2.1 Bluetooth Dongle
Microsoft Mouse USB Dongle
Logitech C920 Camera
BOSE USB Audio
LG DVD Drive
& Some Cheap Nasty USB 3 Header - Card Reader (Native)

Bios setting are optimised default with the following changes
"Wake On LAN - Disabled"

Boot Priorites - 1xUSB, DVD, P0 (SSD - 1/2 Fusion Drive), P3 (Windows SSD),
All other drives / ports disabled.
Hard Drive order P0,P3, Disabled....

I also the run CPU and Memory at different voltages etc.. (over clocked)
I run 4.9 over clock and 1600 mhz memory - it is what Gigabytes Autotune has suggested.

Multibeast Settings are
DSDT Free,
Un-tick everything possible
Select DSDT Free - 898 Audio
& Intel Ethernet

Boot loader Chimera 2.2.1

Standard definition - Mac Pro 3,1

No other selections are made the compulsory Fake SMC cannot be unselected.

I'm using Fusion Drive so, copy the extra folder and Boot files to the SSD and HDD (As per the Fusion Guide)

This has been the same setup for Lion, Mountain Lion and has been faultless since day one.
All updates are automatically installed, sleep has always worked.

The USB connections are fussy "as to which port they will work in without problems", but that is pretty easy to work out.

Any different system definition I have tried, has provided problems in one way or another, the latest was video not working in iTunes or safari.

Zero kernel panics in over a year and only 1 crash (windows) due to a suspected high temp problem
.
The card reader sometimes doesn't power up, others have said they needed to relocate the usb header - but I found simply unplugging the PC from the powerpoint for 30 seconds does the same trick.

Only thing I know that doesn't work is the iTunes HD Video content.

I haven't tried the multiple screen in Mavericks, (using the Apple TV) but will do in the near future.

Hope that helps..
