[Updated] wildwillow's Haswell Build: GA-Z87X-OC - i7-4770K - HD4600+GT 640

[cam01]

Hi wildwillow, thx for this great guide.
I've assembled a machine with a GTX580 (the other components are the same as your machine) and it works really flawlessy.

I'm writing to thanks you and to tell to ADOBE users that to take advantage of CUDA's engine they must install the last CUDA driver from the NVIDIA SITE and update the Premiere and After Effects "cuda_supported_cards.txt" with their graphics card model.

Here you can find instructions on how to do it:

Be careful: every adobe update you had to re-update the "cuda_supported_cards.txt" files

baspak,
You'll need to download the Mavericks installation from the Mac App Store. It will give you warnings that you've already have it on your system, but go through the process anyway. UniBeast only works with the installer, not a working Mavericks system.

Hello Wildwillow:


Thanks for your great guide. I have followed your comments for my hackintosh. I've Built one based on yours. I work everything perfectly. Dual boot with OSX 10.9 and Win 8.1. Wifi Card Tp-link Tl-WDN4800 recognized the system but not connected to the network, is now resolved. But what it cost me to get HDMI Audio but I've solved it.


Thanks.

Hi Reimons,

Seems like you have had an adventure to make your system complete. I find thats what makes us learn, with the ability to read. Glad it helped. Congrats and Enjoy

Hi Wildwillow:


How did you get hdmi audio worked on both monitors? Today I connected the second monitor and I saw that did not work. Do I have to install something else to go sound on Nvidia video card?.


Thanks

Hi Reimons,

I used the SSDT approach that toleda posted, it works flawlessly. here Haswell HDMI Audio - tonymacx86.com To be honest I added the SSDT and the Nvidia HDMI was present without any edits. I had to use edits suggested in toleda's thread to enable HD4600 HDMI that are simple to use via the terminal.

I had Mountain Lion running perfectly and just tried installing Mavericks using your guide, but it isn't working It tells me that the install failed and couldn't be installed on my computer.

Have I maybe created the usb wrong? I pulled out my secondary video card in case that was the problem, and I also changed USB ports, but still no go.

Maybe a clean install would work? What you guys think?
