Hi all,
Great news, yesterday I got my new Dell monitor - P2415Q with 4k resolution, with the ability SST 60Hz.
Motherboard: GIGABYTE Z97X-UD3H
Graphic card: Gigabyte GTX760 4GB
SSD: SAMSUNG 840EVO 120G
Mem: Kingston Savage DDR3 2400 HX324C11SR/8 * 2
CPU: Intel 4790K
My build is using clover which followed the guide from http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-desktop-guides/144426-how-install-os-x-yosemite-using-clover.html
Since nobody responded my previous thread - http://www.tonymacx86.com/graphics/149597-dell-p2415q-p2715q-4k-60hz-sst.html, I decided to trust my own knowledge. So I ordered this monitor from dell.com. I must say this monitor is really sharp! I love this Retina resolution so much!
What surprised me is that, I didn't do any configuration! My mac recognised my GTX 760 automatically and also this 4K monitor. It sets the resolution to 1920*1080 retina resolution with 60Hz (there is not any configuration on the monitor menu either). Everything went perfect!
Here comes some pictures:
I set the resolution to another one with suits my eye better.
However, one thing I can not figure out is that, my clover setting is:
<key>Graphics</key>
<dict>
<key>Inject</key>
<dict>
<key>ATI</key>
<true/>
<key>Intel</key>
<true/>
<key>NVidia</key>
<false/>
</dict>
</dict>
That nvidia is set to false, then why Yosemite still can recognise it? I did't know why, so I set it to:
<key>Graphics</key>
<dict>
<key>Inject</key>
<dict>
<key>ATI</key>
<false/>
<key>Intel</key>
<true/>
<key>NVidia</key>
<true/>
</dict>
</dict>
Opps! My mac can be started normally, however, the 4k display is black! I tried to turn on/off/on the monitor but didn't work. I do not know why, so I set the clover configuration back and everything works fine.
Anybody knows? Anyway, the current version works quite well I can still use it.
PS. With Parallels Desktop, my Bootcamp Windows started too, with high-resolution enabled. Finally, these 2 operating systems are working together with high-res. Also, my Bootcamp Windows 8.1 can be booted solely under Clover configuration. I wrote a topic about this, but it is in Chinese, if anyone interests, I can translate it into English and post it here: http://vincentli.tuchong.com/t/6997492/
