A week of tinkering and researching got me to this point. It's not perfect, but pretty darn close to it.

 

Hackintosh Spec:

Asus P8Z68-V Pro 1101

Intel i5 2500k OC to 4.5ghz

Memory - 8GB

EVGA GTX 570 HD

120GB Kingston Hyper X SSD

 

Bios settings are left pretty much stock with the exception of AHCI and Turbo set to 45

 

What works:

1. Speedstep - I will explain

2. Sound

3. Video - EVGA GTX 570 HD

4. Ethernet

5. Sata

6. eSata - I will explain

7. Bluetooth

8. USB 3 - I will explain

 

Explanation

1. Speedstep - I got this to work by using http://www.insanelym...pic=258611&st=0 and a patch DSDT found here http://tonymacx86.co...=48864&start=10. This is great and all, but eSata does not work. On the plus side you get speedstep and sleep and wake.

2. eSata - The only way I found this to work is by using a patch DSDT found here http://tonymacx86.co...t=34683&start=0 problem using this DSDT is you don't get Speedstep, Sleep and wake. If someone can some what merge to two DSDT into one this will make this build Perfect!

3. USB 3 - Installing the Kext found in [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] drops my Geekbench score by 3000 points and it makes my computer sluggish. Not sure why it does this and I couldn't find a fix for it so I opted not to install otherwise it works.

 

Currently I'm using the patch DSDT for Speedstep as I currently don't need eSata, but I figured one you geniuses can help to combine the two. I hope this serves as a quick and dirty guide to getting most of the devices to work for similar build.

 

Small Tidbits

Geekbench score - 11564

 

*Update managed to figure out how to merge the two.
