**[Successful]** Install Asus Rampage Formula lll

First a little bit about my system. I am running an Asus Rampage Formula lll. Core i7 965 Extreme Edition Processor. 2 XFX ATI Radeon HD6870 (Not Cross fired) . 2 OCZ Vertex lll 120g SSD HDD's and 1 160g Western Digital HDD running Windows 7 Ultimate. All Laptop drives as I don't see a need for these big ass desktop drives. I am running 24g of Corsair 1366 DDR3 Memory and a sony CDRom. Powering this all is a Corsair 750W PSU. Im pretty sure that covers it all . For Monitors I am using A 40" Sony Bravia 6 as my main monitor. A 50" Sony Bravia 6 as my secondary monitor and then a small 20" Samsung Monitor. So far I can report everything working Except the icloud App which wont let me log in.

All I did to get this working was prepare an 8g key with Unibeast 1.5.2 (1.5.0 and 1.5.1 would not work with my set up for whatever reason) according to the instructions in these forums and BAAAAAAM !!!!! it worked with no problem. After install I ran Multibeast 4.6.1 to install audio and ethernet kext and that was it. Im typing this message running 10.8 !!! if I can get the cloud issue resolved that would be fantastic. I must say that this particular setting I have is BLAZING FAST. Im not sure exactly which part is contributing the most (maybe its the OS) but WOW the speeds and smoothness with which I can do stuffs !!!. The Lion Hackintosh was fast but this is LIGHTENING FAST !!!!

edit : icloud is now fully functional.. on its own..... lucky me......
 
took a quick snap shot

not sure if anyone is interested but here it is .

Hmm, the only reason it wouldn't work is if your running a patched mach_kernel that isn't support by apple.

I was getting this issue before apple supported ivy bridge processors where I had to use a patched kernel to run lion by installing bridgehelper.
Did you create the unibeast usb from the release version of Mountain lion downloaded from the app store?
 
I ran it but the scores seem low

here goes

Not bad.
If you overclock your processor a bit, your score could be higher, also try closing all the open apps you have, itunes, safari, transmission, etc...
Memory performance seems ok, but you should be getting around 10,000 to 10,000.
 
I re ran the test with all apps shut down

honestly I am shocked to not be able to push over 10000. Im not sure what a good score is but I thought I had decent equipment over here . I mean a 1000$ processor and I cant even break 10000? Im annoyed now loll
 
heres the pic

sorry
