Fairly uneventful installation. Had to use the normal npci=0x2000 .
Install first GTX 780. After OS X install make sure to install Nvidia drivers. After that put the other three cards in. You will also need the CUDA drivers if you intend to do anything meaningful with the 4 cards.
Blender Performance
It did the Blender BMW benchmark in 32 seconds!
I made a video of the build here:
