Getting GPU started under OsX

Hi

I installed the client on my new Hackintosh to see how it performs. It did not detect the GPU, but I added a slot as shown below. How do I get it started?

I am going to be connecting up a monitor to my older Mac Pro to get that one started soon, but also wanted to see what new machine does

Thanks much. This one is getting twice the performance compared to my work computer.

You need to set the folding power to Full for GPU folding to work otherwise the GPU will remain idle until the system is in sleep mode.

Thanks, I just read on the OSX install guide GPU folding not enabled on it. I am going to have to boot to the other SSD to see what GTX 760 does. Kind of bummed as was hoping my older Mac Pro would use all of its resources

***Edit***

First WU 65% Done, this machine reports 30,704 PPD on Full for i7 4770K at 4.1GHz

it gets warmer, like running OCCT on windows side. A bit bummed I can't use GPU in osX to get true power of this little beast. Going to boot other SSD Later to see what it looks like in Win 7.
