hello everybody....
just to joint this wonderful community of hackintosh... smile.gif
This is my machine specs :

- i7 2500k@4.2Ghz
- Asus p8z68-v pro
- Corsair 8GB 1333Mhz gaming ram
- MSI Radeon HD5770
- Triple boot win7(raid0)+(Snow Leopard(10.6.8)+Lion(10.7.2)one HDD)

seems works fine as far as I'm concern rclxm9.gif ,
just for sharing :-

usb 3.0 - need to do on win7,download the driver from ASUS web(USB 3.0 Boost Full Package
Version V1.00.05+Asmedia USB3.0 Controller Driver V1.14.1.0) and install.
Found this somewhere on the net that it will flash new firmware to the Asmedia
chips.Back into the mac just install the kext from MB for NEC/Renesas.Found
that noticeable speed improvement if compare with 2.0 port.

Bluetooth - seem working when pairing with my Garmin-Asus M10 winmo phone.

Wifi - using asus N10 usb adaptor(free when buy the mobo)

now looking for doing raid0....is it possible just using onboard ctrler? sweat.gif
thanks in advance.... notworthy.gif

tot31 has done the RAID0 installation but no idea if that is software or hardware configuration though. Check few pages before this page for tot31's posts.

yup its on page 19....but he not mentioned which config though..
btw did you manage to up the usb 3.0 port yet?
here my screenshoot of my system

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

the speed can be notice compare to 2.0 port.
also from the screenshoot...I cannot complete the xbench bench..it indicates
that still running but after wait almost half an hour still nothing happen...just few
scores are appear only...any idea?

I haven't really pursue anything on USB3 since I don't have any peripherals that require USB3.

On xbench issue, I'm facing the same thing too. If I select everything, it will stuck.. but if I do a test individually it is okay.

On RAID0, from my reading based on insanelymac and tonymacx86 forums, I believe motherboard RAID0 is not supported, you need to do a software RAID0 but I've no idea if this can be achievable on bootable drive.

BTW, just wondering if you've got the sleep working correctly.. Mine will go into sleep cycle, sleep, wake up, sleep and wake up cycle until I awake it using my keyboard. No idea what wrong, btw, I'm on the latest BIOS.

Are you running at 4.2GHz all the time? Mine can be overclocked up to 4.7GHz (i7/2600K) but I'm using speedstepper. For now, this accomplished by patching the firmware. Was using the speedstepper but tried not taint any standard extension.

Yea...most on the net also mainly discussing on software raid and very few only on hardware
type...and futhermore not much reliable brand/selection on our country here.The only
onboard Intel raid ctrl in the net that I've found the with tuto is on ICH10R...afaik.


As for the usb 3.0,me too at first....but even on same old native device/file(external HDD/iso) I gained
almost 100% improvement 22~26MB>42~48MB.

For the sleep actually never venture more on it...last time that seems work is on SL
10.6.7,after update to 10.6.8 never get it working also....somewhere in the net say
sleep will be problem if we attach usb device...and in my cases I've lot of them plus
never use sleep function even on windows PC,just trying when many people discuss about
it on hackintosh machine.

Yes I'm running @4.2Ghz all the time on my machine,I think this is the sweet sport
for my chips/machine config...some say 2500K will shine @4.6 above but my machine
will idle @almost 50 deg,@4.2 my machine can running on lower than default voltage... thumbup.gif

for answering above question...
my setup all is primary....win7+SL+Lion.. brows.gif
just kidding...but booting the OS depend on what needs for...
win7 - gaming/program mac doesn't have/not familiar
SL - workOS (mainly editing video/audio)
Lion - lite use (surfing etc)not much software installed
btw..I'm on the way to fully ported from SL to Lion..

to wiraone,
regarding sleep function...just notice that
on my win7 also having issues...when
sleep was select it seems just logoff
current users...after digging for more info
to enable the sleep function the best
I can get is...not just to disable the PLL
function nor reflash the bios...it is more
related on others hardware also...seems
the power supply ( I'm using Corsair GS700)
maybe the culprit here...
why I'm highlight this in hackintosh thread is
if we just cannot use the function on the actual
design was for...maybe it is a bit hard to enable
it on others(mac).....imoo.
btw if any one cud can get sleep function working
pls be share...


to others,
Currently I'm having issues with my 'trash'...
cannot be empty...some of the file is still there..
after surfing the net and try various method..
using terminal command,change ownership,using
certain software...still cant rid of it... rclxub.gif
maybe my problem is...
I'm deleting file that on external device...then
using it on my window7 OS and have been
reformatted...from my understanding is the
" .Thrash " (hidden file) was deleted on reformatting
process. Does any body facing similar problem with me....
any help/solution....
TQ...

I believe it is the network card, but looking at the kernel/system log, the wake up reason comes as question mark. Grr.. I had it working on SL before.

yup...maybe also the network card....
btw in mac does it have something similar
on window which 'device manager'?
found that on other forum saying that
on the network adapter properties have
tab names 'power management' that can
select "allow this device to wakeup the
computer"....and untick that solve
the sleep problem...just in that case it is
on window oS...(will try on my window7
when back home today)...
but I still doubt applicable on mac system.... hmm.gif

I don't think you can source it locally, many sold here are the Intel ones and not the Broadcom. Do check the compatibility before you source the card.

thanks wiraone...searching on ebay now...

Not every laptop has DSDT patching man. Many require manual patching. I can patch DSDT once, but thats about it because of the errors popping up
*
What I mean when saying using repo was manual patching our self..not ready made dsdt....there are few available other laptops patch on that repo also. During my patching I didn't face any error yet...just make sure using suggested tools version from tutorial we follow to avoid error appear...
Lucky me my dell 7537 still got support/actively discuss on El Capitan...

Sorry...If I mislead anybody else...
