I finally got around to hackintoshing my system. It now duals boots Windows 8.1 and yosemite with clover bootloader
| Part | Product |
|---|---|
| CPU | Intel i5 4690k |
| Mobo | MSI Z97 MPOWER MAX AC |
| RAM | 2x 4GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1866mhz |
| GPU | MSI N760 Hawk |
First, I had to upgrade my BIOS as I had no option to disable CFG lock. Updating to 1.7 was very easy.
I loaded optimized defaults (F6) and disabled VT-D tech and CFG lock.
To create my USB I used the exact settings from this guide. I used the standard config file and did not do the optional DSDT step. I also did not include an ethernet kext and did the installation with my ethernet cable unplugged.
This allowed me to get the install going. I formatted my drive with disk util and then finished the installation. After which I was greeted with this beautiful view.
I installed Clover in the ESP following STEP 4 from the guide. To fix ethernet I used Multibeast to install the latest AppleIntelE1000e kext (while unchecking everything else). Audio was working from the start for me as I am using a DAC.
I had some problems logging into the app store but I quickly fixed this following the advice from kurosagi and JasonHears.
iCloud seems to be working fine. iMessage is not working at the moment.
Hopefully this is helpful to someone.
