Question about OC'ing and my HAckintosh freezing after.

[JJiG]

Hello there, I just have a quick question regarding over clocking in general.

A couple weeks ago I installed 10.8.5 on my z87n motherboard but I did so under the stock clock at 3.4ghz. When I installed windows I tweaked the voltage settings and after some trial and error *and help from a forum member* I was able to get to 4.2ghz stable and ran Aida64 for 3 hrs with no issues and great temps.

When I tried to boot back into OS/x the system would hang on the white apple logo. It will boot into safe mode but thats it. Is there anyway I can fix this? when i reverted back to the stock voltages and speed OS/x would boot normal.

Can I change definitions in safe mode using multibeast? My friend seems to think 4.2ghz is an odd # that possibly isn't supported on any mac platform and thats why i'm having issues. Honestly I don't know what could be the problem. If it's stable in Windows it should be stable in Mac OS/x.

Thanks

Sorry I'm not being any helpful for this topic but I'm been looking into building a same setup as yours. I'm just wondering if you have solved the ethernet issue and this OC issue.

Sorry for not replying, I haven't resolved the OC Issue and I'm still having Ethernet issues. No matter what I try to do it's not working. I don't know if its because I'm dual booting or what.

Is it kernel panicking (screen goes grey and text comes down) or just freezing? If its a kernel panic then you should disable C states checks by chimera. Alternatively I updated to the newest version of the boot loader and they seem to have removed the check/it doesn't cause any more issues with my 4.4GHz i5-4670K.
