Running OSX just because or is there an actual reason you want the OSX OS?

I'll have to do a bit of trickery to get around that, but it should take care of all my problems. Geekbench scores for the stock 6700K were pretty decent at 5256 SC, 16842 MC. CPU is running very frosty with the H100i, so there might be some overclocking in the future.
The only real issue that's left is figuring out how to ramp the fan curve in OSX. None of the tools in OSX really work, and Gigabyte's BIOS doesn't really help. In GPU benchmarks like Unigine Heaven, the GPU hits about 85°C and doesn't ramp the GPU fan up till very late. Based on score, I imagine it's throttling the GPU clock a fair bit. I'm fairly certain my fan setup is fine. 2 NF-F12s pulling through the rad in the front, one NF-A12 exhausting in the rear. I'll post pics when I get the chance.
