Graphical Issues on 10.10.5

I have sort of an odd predicament that I can't seem to figure out. I've narrowed it down to issues between the kernel and NVIDIA Web Drivers. Sometimes (and it's very unpredictable), I'll have a "bad boot" and have some serious issues with mainly Finder and Safari hanging the system while loading. I have checked the console and I see the GPU restart every time this happens. I am currently running 10.10.5 (14F1021) with the 10.10.5 v3 kernel found here on these forums. My processor is an AMD A10 - 7850K. I have an EVGA GTX 960 with the latest version of the NVIDIA Web Drivers. This is a clean install with only NullCPUPowerManagement and FakeSMC installed. I primarily run Clover in UEFI as my boot loader, but this also happens with Enoch. I had zero problems on 10.10.4; these are unique to 10.10.5 and had the same issues before and after the security update. Also, they don't happen on every boot. I should also add that I have deleted AppleTyMCEDriver.kext and AppleUpstreamUserClient.kext and have patched AppleGraphicsControl.kext to no avail. My SMBIOS is MacPro 3,1; the issue has also persisted on MacPro 5,1. 

 

Sometimes, regardless of whether or not I have changed anything (and I usually haven't), it will boot up perfectly. Everything will run smooth as butter as it should. And at other random times, it will simply have a bad boot with these issues. If it was very intermittently and could knowingly be fixed by just one reboot, then I wouldn't worry about it, but sometimes I'll have to reboot 2 or 3 times for it to be fine.

 

I have attached a screenshot of my console and the actual GPURestart log. I should also add that I've tried about 2 or 3 different kernels (I think all three versions of the 10.10.5 kernel on the site) and I have faced the same issues.

Try an iMac smbios. or MacBookPro, maybe.

Do you have onboard graphics? What are they?

How about regressing to an older version of the Nvidia Web Drivers?

 

Also when you changed from a perfectly running install of 10.10.4 to 10.10.5 you may be running into the beginnings of stuff that makes 10.11.0 different from 10.10.4.

 

Just some thoughts.

I do have the integrated graphics, but I am not using them. I have attached my DSDT and ioreg files. I changed kernels once again and used the 10.10.5 v2 kernel and used the kexts and frameworks that came with the kernel and I booted up after rebuilding my caches and fixing permissions and it was flawless. Everything was smooth, but as soon as I rebooted, it reverted back to its old behavior.
