I'm using an EVGA 8800GTS. And yes, let me upload the VoodooHDA.kext. Remember to remove "AppleHDA.kext" before installing the VoodooHDA.kext.

If you have any questions, please ask. Good luck!

If you'd like I can also post the app I used to make the EFI string for my card. I'm not sure if the 9800GX2 is supported by that program or not, but an updated version might provide support if the version I had doesn't.

Nope, the long boot time is only an nforce bug.
