Hi! I am having no luck here. I have a 10.10 Clover install, I'm upgrading to a GTX 970 from an AMD 6870. I booted in successfully using `nv_disable=1`, installed the drivers and rebooted again. I then used `nv_disable=1` again to boot in and ensure that the Nvidia Web Drivers were selected in the preferences and added `nvda_drv=1` to the boot flags. When I attempt to boot I will either get a hard reset or a black screen (my monitor says the signal is lost but the system doesn't reboot). In verbose mode the last thing I see before it dies is "ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin::start - waitForService(resourceMatching(AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement) timed out"

I'm still able to boot in using `nv_disable=1` but if I take that off it blows up.

Some other notes:
- I haven't used my integrated graphics for anything (don't need to) and I've turned it off in the bios.
- GA-z68x-ud3h-b3 motherboard.
- The only kexts I have in `EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.10` are FakeSMC, NullCPUPowerManagement and RealtekRTL81xx.
- My build is otherwise completely solid, I work on it all day.
- I have tried both the f01 and f03 drivers. I'm currently on the f01 since a few seem to have had issues there. I've tried reinstalling drivers a couple times.

I've included my config.plist. It's more or less the one from the Clover install guide here.

Thanks!

[SUP]Can confirm this fixed random freezes after successful boot on desktop. Desktop would freeze, no mouse etc.
Loaded 10.10.1 and the latest Web NVidia driver for that release.

No more freezes, it also seems to boot and shutdown more stable also.

Guys, I managed to get my GTX 750 Ti running using the MacPro3,1 system definition, but I tried changing it to Macmini6,2 (legend has it you can get 4K @ 60Hz with this system definition) and I get a black screen. Is there any reason why everything works with one system definition but not the other? Is there something I can do to make it work?

I'm in the same boat: upgrading to 10.10.1 and getting the latest driver version helped my system stability immensely.

Things had gotten so bad with 10.10.0 and the previous driver versions that I was getting graphics driver error messages every few minutes and eventually my system wouldn't even boot. I reinstalled 10.10.0 on top of my existing system, updated to 10.10.1, latest driver version and now everything is great! Performance is reasonably smooth in the UI, laggy video playback is resolved, and the phantom third display that appeared out of nowhere was gone.

Oh yeah 970 is faster for sure compared to my old 680. You should use the WEB drivers cause the native ones are ****e and don't seem to support the 970 very well.

Only issue I have is that my computer won't wake from sleep under Yosemite. Not sure if it has to do eith the GPU though.
