I wanted Mavericks but crashes half way through installation. I decided I don't really need Mavericks features, and most Mac's aren't running Mavericks.
So anyways I went with Mountain Lion and with a little bit of tweaking everything works except the sound but I have a usb sound card from a previous hackintosh and I just use that.
How I Did it (Instructions): 1. Download Mountain Lion app store version from somewhere.
Make a myhack USB using another mac or VM.
Download Bronya Fully working Kernel
Replace mach_kernel on your usb stick with the one you downloaded also download a copy of multibeast for ML on the same stick, you will need to install drivers from it later on.
Boot with -v -f PCIRootUID=0 npci=0x2000 GraphicsEnabler=No You will always have to boot with those arguments unless you set them permanently in chameleon after installation
Install as usual, when it finishes open the terminal
type the following into the terminal
cd /
rm /Volumes/Wherever you installed mountain lion/mach_kernel
cp mach_kernel /Volumes/Wherever you installed mountain lion/
Close the terminal and open myhack and install Chameleon
Boot into the Installation with the same arguments mentioned before
After the welcome dialogues open Multibeast that you previously put on your usb drive. check only the ethernet(Realtek 8111E), audio(Realtek ALC892), and sata driver(JMicron JMB362) install as usual and reboot.
If there are updates as in my case I had to update from 10.8.4 to 10.8.5, after the update boot into your usb installer and and repeat step 7
Specs:
CPU: AMD-FX8150
RAM: 16GB (4x4GB)
GPU0: EVGA 660ti 2GB
Motherboard: ASUS Sabertooth 990FX
HDD: 2x2TB WD RED (one for OSX & one for time-machine)
I'll post a screenshot of my about this mac after I transfer my data from windows and boot back into OSX
