Welcome to the forums.

VGA isn't supported in OS X. You'll need an HDMI, DVI or DP Digital connection.
Screen flickers and mouse jumps as you are booting in safe mode. No drivers loaded.
Intel graphics patch is for 6/7 series mixed HD3000/4000 1155 sockets - Sandybridge/IvyBridge motherboard/processors. You have an 1150 socket with HD4600 graphics.
Graphics Enabler should be No
IGPEnabler should be Yes (for integrated internal graphics)
You don't need PCIRootUID fix.
System definition for your hardware would be better suited as iMac 14,1.
Add in MultiBeast under Customize > select 1080p Display Mode. If this isn't your native screen resolution you can change it in /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist later.
Ensure Init Display First in the BIOS is set to IGFX.

This little Hackintosh smokes.
