[SUCCESS] i7-5820k @ 4.3ghz, 2x GTX 970, GA-X99-UD4 Yosemite Hackintosh!

[Fanuelz]

A lot of people have been wondering if Hackintosh works on the X99 Platform. I have successfully setup Yosemite on my GA-X99-UD4 build with dual GTX 970s - both being recognized - along with a 5820k, SSD, 16GB DDR4 of RAM and more.

What's working:...

How did you get the 980 working?

Do you happen to remember any other flags @Colton328? I'm on almost the exact same setup as you (save the Intel 5960x). I only get to the [PCI Configuration Begin] screen in vanilla mode...then it just stops. Any advice?

Same graphics cards, same motherboard, 64GB of RAM.

Thank you!

Hi Colton328,

I have a very very similar setup to you. It's a Gigabyte x99-UD4, 2x Gigabyte Windforce 970s, 5960x (instead of k), and 64GB of RAM (some of which I've tried removing).

I have followed your guide and that video meticulously, several times (10-12) and cannot get past PCI Configuration. I am using 10.10.2.

I've detailed it here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-desktop-support/156758-help-gigabyte-x99-ud4.html

Any help you would be willing to offer would be greatly appreciated!

Hi guys,

I just built my first hackintosh with a similar configuration like yours (same CPU, MBU, RAM, 1x GTX970) but after installing clover ethernet won't work anymore. I have used the same bootflags as Colton used in his video tutorial.
Have you got any suggestions what to do? The onboard ethernet isn't recognised in OSX after using clover but is recognised when using Unibeast USB boot stick.

Thanks!

Can you please help me with driver for sound? I've tried may guides out there and still stuck. I can see the devices, but no sounds and videos on browser will just stop playing after 1-2 sec. I have the exact same cpu and motherboard.

in the youtube guide can you tell me the command in 9:44 please.
i am kinda stuck here and it is my first build.

@tailslol, I believe the command you are talking about is:

cp -R /Volumes/USBNAMEGOESHERE/System/Library/Kernels/kernel /Volumes/HACKINTOSHDRIVENAMEGOESHERE/System/Library/Kernels/

Where USBNAMEGOESHERE = whatever you named your Unibeast USB drive. It is likely (if you followed the guide exactly) "Yosemite Unibeast". Let's assume your flash drive is called "Yosemite Unibeast" and your installation hard drive or SSD is named "Hackintosh". If that's what you named it, then you would need to put a \ between Yosemite and Unibeast in your command to compensate for the space. So your command may look something like this:

cp -R /Volumes/Yosemite\ Unibeast/System/Library/Kernels/kernel /Volumes/Hackintosh/System/Library/Kernels/

This code copies your patched kernel on your USB drive to your installation hard drive. I'm not an expert...btw.

Okay I followed this. It is great. Got me most of the way there. After doing clover I lost my internet. SO I am missing ethernet and audio. I am using a slightly different mother board

GA-X99-Gaming 5
MSI GTX 980 Gaming


Any Ideas. Do I need to run Multibeast? If so what do I select.
