Hello. I haven't posted on here in years now, but I figured this would be the place to ask. I have a desktop that I have custom built, however after using 10.8 at work so much, I want to dual boot my PC with it and Windows 7.

I have seen multiple methods to do so that I have no doubt will work in terms of just running (natively, not talking virtual machine here). But I want to make sure the hardware will be fully supported. A few years ago I installed Leopard on a laptop of mine and It actually was basically fully supported, 9800m GTS and all.

The hardware in question:
2600k i7 @ 4.5GHz (OC'd in the BIOS, no worries here)
16GB DDR3 @ 2400MHz (Does 10.8 support this speed)
GTX 690 OC'd (Does 10.8 have GPU OC software?)
SSD
27" 1440p

If I can't get the GPU to work here the whole thing is going to be pointless. I have no onboard integrated card with this mobo or CPU so no 690 = no screen.

Anyone have luck with this at all?
