Hi guys, i just recently put together my first hackintosh with following components which i use in Win 7 x64

i7 980x
evga x58 classified 759 mobo
2 x hd 5970 oc's
6 gig kingston hyper x 2000
3 x 60gig ocz vertex turbo 2 ssd drives
Silverstone 1500w strider psu
Dangerden DD21 wide tower

my question is, everything seems to be working ok apart from my cpu is showing as unknown, even though its reported correctly with cores and cache.

also is there any way to use crossfire x with 2 hd5970s i have, at minute i have 1 disabled, here are my benches thus far

any help is greatly appreciated
 
OS X doesn't have crossfire support, so I reckon it won't work with two cards.

BTW: Screenshots don't require a third party app. Try cmd+shift+3 or 4 for selective shots. ;)
 
cheers mate,

any info regarding cpu not showing correctly, also i edited the ati3000 kext to disable 1 core on the hd5970 is this correct?
