Hackintosh for the AMD masses

I am in the process of installing Mac OS X 10.7.5 onto an AMD Phenom II x4 975 (3.6GHz) with a GeForce GTX 650 graphics card, and 256GB Samsung 840 Pro SSD.

I have successfully installed Niresh's 10.8.2, but it does not work with NVIDIA cards by the look of it.

The 10.7.4/5 kernel I have downloaded looks like it will work OOTB after I install the Retail 10.7.5 NVIDIA drivers, and Cuda 5.0 drivers.

I am using Chris1111's AMD USB install disk maker (in French!) and the App Store 10.7.5 Install Lion App.

This is the same exact OS X I am running on my mid-2010 Core i3 iMac, so might be interesting.

More news as it comes to hand...

Using:

Possibly much more ;-)
