Mostly sucessfully installed Mavericks on a (Modified) Dell Studio XPS 8100.

 

Modifications are:
Processor replaced with an i3-540.
Graphics card replaced with a NVIDIA GeForce GT620 (OEM variant, GF119 based) 1GB.

Silicon Image 3132 SATA/RAID PCIe x1 card fitted.

4GB RAM fitted.

Installed by following the The all-in-one guide to Vanilla OS X. System is installed and booting from the Silicon Image 3132 (using a kext), with the GT620OEM working with no modifications.

 

SMBios.plist is that of a iMac 27" late 2010. org.chameleon.Boot.plist has 'Ethernet Built In' and 'Restart Fix' set.
 

No system kexts have been replaced or modified.
 

Kexts installed:
NullCPUPowerManagement
FakeSMC

BCM5722D for the onboard BCM57780 ethernet

VoodooHDA 2.8.6 for the onboard Realtek ALC887 HD Audio

SiliconImage3132 (kext requires extracting from install package) for the Silicon Image 3132 SATA/RAID card

 

Everything is working, other than CPU power management.
