Comments:
Today I updated an old Hackintosh to OSX 10.8.2 and want to share my experience.
Audio: Working
Display: DVI works. Dual Display: Not tested yet.
Sleep/Wake: Not tested yet
Ethernet: Working
iCloud: Not tested yet
AppStore: Not tested yet
AirPlay Mirror: Not tested yet
Mountain Lion Install Process:
1.
Download Mountain Lion from Mac App Store and use Unibeast to create a USB Thumb Drive. Use this guide!
2. Connect the Thumb drive and power on the PC.
3. BIOS Set SATA to Run AHCI:
«Integrated Peripherals»->Set «SATA AHCI Mode» and «Onboard SATA/IDE Ctrl Mode» to «AHCI»
4. BIOS Change Boot Device:
«Advanced BIOS Features»->»Hard Disk Boot Priority»->Move the USB Thumb Drive to the first position
5. Save the BIOS setting and reboot.
6. Now it should boot from USB Thumb Drive.
7. At the Chimera Boot Screen, choose USB and hit Enter
8. The screen turns black. Don´t panic. After some minutes the install screen should show up.
9. Install OSX. Use this guide! note: the BIOS often reset it self so you have to repeat step 2-5 after every reboot!
10. Download the 10.8.2 Combo Update and install it. DON`T REBOOT!
11. Download this View attachment dsdt.aml and place it on the desktop
12. Run Multibeast 5.
0.2. Use this setting:
13. Reboot
14. Done

awesome thank you for this great Guide.
I have kind of the same config like you and it works great.

But I had to remove my wifi card to get ETH0 for my Ethernet before the wifi card allocated the ETH0 and iCloud and App Store didn’t work.
I removed the wifi card and reinstalled the Ethernet card to get ETH0 for the Ethernet.
(Followed this guide: http://blog.waldrondigital.com/2011…is-not-an-icloud-account-on-hackintosh-fixed/ )
with this steps:
3. Delete /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
5. Reboot your computer. Both the files deleted above will be automatically recreated.
Than I put the wifi card back in the PCI slot.
..
It seems to work.
Here also a screenshot what I selected at MuliBeast.
and also used DSDT-GA-P35-DS3R-2.1-F13.aml

Hi to all!
I have the same mobo but the video card is a nVidia 8400 GS.
The system boots without kernel panics, but it does not load Mountain Lion. The boot process stuck at «IoBluetooth — completed»
See attachment
I also noticed that the BIOS resets itself!! after a restart the SATA settings are set back to IDE mode

I have the same boards GA-EP35-DS3 6GB RAM ASUS 5450HD
I Installed using your method.
It worked except the audio I needed to use the ALC889a WITHOUT DSDT in order to get the audio working properly.
This was the same with both 10.8.2 and 10.7.5
I used multibeast 5.2.1 for ML with both above and then I used kext wizard to install Radeon HD5450 kexts with my 1002 68f9 card
Everything working great! thanks for the help!!

PS for anyone who has the issue with the bios resetting … this MoBo has a feature which allows you to save a Bios Profile — very helpful
When you set your BIOS with all your specific settings ( i include boot order and remove floppy etc) then you can use the F11 and F12 keys to save and load BIOS Configurations.
The other good thing about doing this is that if the BIOS does reset itself, you can load one of the profiles that you have saved (I save one with a USB stick set to boot and one booting from HDD)
This makes life easier!

I’m more bored than a piece of wood lol at the moment so I’m about to attempt this on a similar setup, except I have an intel board (like actual first party intel) and I plan on installing the latest and greatest possible OS X wise (which would be El Capitan).
I’m just about to make a Yosemite USB installer and then I’ll attempt and upgrade from there. I’ll post here if I need help!

3DNews Processors and memory Intel processors Overview of the Intel Q8300 processor on the Yor… The most interesting news
Which is better, high-speed dual-core or inexpensive quad-core ⇣ Contents PerformanceThe following hardware was used in the test system:
First, let’s look at the results of synthetic tests. Application software tests. Video encoding (DivX, Xvid) measured in seconds, i.e. less is better. Data compression (WinRAR) was measured in kb/s, i.e. more is better. Now — tests of game programs.
Conclusions In terms of performance, the Q8300 takes exactly the place that Intel marketers assigned it. That is, it is faster and more expensive than the Q8200 processor, but slower and cheaper than other quad-core Intel processors. However, with the release of the new AMD Phenom II processors, the situation has become somewhat more complicated, as the choice has become larger, and it has become more difficult to solve the problem of choosing a processor. The fact is that the specific performance of AM3 processors is almost the same as that of Intel processors. And at the same time, AMD processors are cheaper. In particular, the Phenom II X4 805 retails for about $210 (March 2009). Accordingly, our advice to those users who are starting to work with professional software packages is as follows. At the first stage, it is necessary to evaluate the degree of optimization of the software used for multi-threaded computing. If such optimization is present, then it makes sense to switch to 4-core processors. For those users who are planning to overclock their processor, we want to remind you once again that the Q8xxx series processors have relatively low locked multipliers, and in most cases you will not be able to reach the technology limit of the Yorkfield core. By the way, if overclocking in professional workstations causes unequivocal condemnation (because 100% stability is important there), then for a home system it is only welcome. The fact is that without significant financial costs, you can significantly increase productivity. At the same time, the loss of data or calculation results will not cause significant harm, since your semi-professional work is a kind of hobby. — Discuss the material in the conference

And a few months ago, the conclusion would have sounded like this: when choosing a 4-core processor, you need to pay attention to Intel products and be guided by your financial capabilities.
Then you need to determine which processors the software you use is optimized for, and based on this, purchase a processor from the right manufacturer. And only after that it makes sense to choose a specific processor model based on the cost.

AMD and ATI merger completed
A few days ago, the procedure for the takeover of ATI by AMD was completed. The last little convention was the transition of the email address of all ATI engineers to the @ amd domain. com.
Also, today regular visitors ati . com were quite surprised by what they saw. Instead of the usual interface in red tones, the predominant color has become green. The reason for this was the disappearance of the ATI website. Now it’s just a section on the AMD website. By the way, on its main page you can see an interesting formula: «ATI + AMD = The New AMD». The meaning is probably clear to everyone.
At the AMD conference in London, company representatives told reporters about the development of a processor with integrated graphics cores.
Such a processor will match the x86 platform with only a slight increase in the number of instructions. Such processors will replace the lower and middle price sector of video cards. At the same time, discrete graphics will continue to develop.

One-nuclear war is not over yet
For quite a long time, we have been witnessing a confrontation between two giants of the processor industry — Intel and AMD. Over the past year, both companies have been actively promoting dual-core processors to the market. Intel’s quad-core Kentsfield processor is scheduled to arrive in November, while AMD will introduce a 4 x 4 platform, which is the use of two dual-core processors. It would seem that single-core processors are already a past stage, and multi-core is ahead of us. But this is not so, and colleagues from the site
www.
VR-Zone. com provided some details about the upcoming single-core processors from both companies.
So, in the first half of 2007 we are waiting for a single-core version of the Core 2 Duo processors, which will have the Conroe-L core. The processors will bear the well-known name “Pentium”, and the frequency potential will be from 1.4 GHz to 1.8 GHz. In response, AMD will release processors on a new 65 nm process technology — single-core with a Sparta core and dual-core Brisbane. In addition to a smaller process technology, they will not differ in any way from their older brothers — Windsor and Orleans.
In the third quarter, Intel is due to release Celeron processors with 533 bus, which are also based on the Conroe-L core. AMD is not going to release single-core processors during this period and will focus on the release of quad-core and dual-core processors with the new K 8 L architecture.
In the fourth quarter, Intel will switch to a new 45 nm process technology.
The first such core will be Wolfdale-L, clocked at 2.4 GHz to 3 GHz. And AMD will finally release a single-core version of the K 8 L architecture. The core will be called Spica , and processors based on this core will be manufactured according to the 65 nm process technology.
This information suggests that both companies are in no hurry to stop producing single-core processors and completely switch to multi-core. This is probably the right decision, since not all applications have multithreading support yet. Although with the release of Windows Vista this should change.

Photos and prices 8800GTX and 8800GTS
Only 2 weeks are left before the announcement of video cards based on the G 80 chip, and more and more rumors about these new products appear on the network. On the
photos of the 8800 GTX and 8800 GTS video cards surfaced in one Asian forum.
The first thing that surprises and scares a little about the 8800 GTX is the size of the board. Its length reaches 28 cm. Such a board does not fit in any case. The size of the video chip is simply shocking: it is simply huge. We have never seen anything like this on video cards. 700 million transistors while maintaining 90 nm process technology makes itself felt. On the top side of the board in the corner there are two connectors for connecting additional power. Of the unusual, we also note two connectors for working in a bundle SLI. Apparently, it will be possible to combine four single video cards in Quad SLI.
The dimensions of the 8800 GTS are not so intimidating and are quite familiar to the eye. There is already a rather shortened board and only one additional power connector. Of interest is the green chip to the right of the video card. Perhaps he will be responsible for the acceleration of physics, but this is just an assumption.
This is the reference cooler for the 8800 GTX.
Its dimensions inspire confidence. For 8800 GTS video cards, there will be a slightly shorter version with four slots in the shroud covering the radiator instead of five. Both versions will be dual-slot.
Apparently, NVIDIA has changed the usual green textolite color to black. From this, the video cards seem even more formidable.
Colleagues from the site
www.theinquirer.net has become available information about the recommended prices for new products from NVIDIA. The 8800 GTX will start at $650. Her younger sister is valued at 449$. For such novelties, the prices are quite familiar. But in Russia, one can not even dream of such price levels in the next few months.

80 mm hit
What are the key features of an 80mm fan? Probably silence and the air flow that the fan moves per unit of time.
