NVIDIA Releases Alternate Graphics Drivers for macOS Sierra 10.12.0 (367.15.10.05)

[mayu643s]

Does anyone else experience trouble with the GT 610 on Sierra?

Yes I'm having issue with GT610. It's taking 1600x900 instead of 1366x768.

After replacing my GTX660Ti with GTX960 every now and then I get a black screen using macOS. Everything boots just fine, but sometimes after boot and using the OS the screen goes black for a second or so and then goes back. It is a bit annoying.

Does somebody have this issue?

iMac14,2
i7 3770K
Sabertooth Z77
16Gb RAM
GTX 960 connected via DP to AOC 4K monitor.

WTF when they're going to release nvidia driver for GTX 1000 series.. not fair...

I can't wait until the GTX 10xx drivers are available. I attempted to make a Hackintosh but did not look into whether or not the drivers were available for Mac OS for my GTX 1060.

I've got a Lenovo m92p running an Nvidia Quadro 290 card. It appears to be recognised in Sierra OOB (it is correctly identified in in "About this Mac" but it seems hobbled (no two-monitor support, there is only one screen resolution offered in System Preferences.) Any ideas how to get Sierra to fully recognise this card? Is there something I did wrong in setup? I told Multibeast to identify the computer as an iMac 14,2. Would that make any difference?

​

NVIDIA has released alternate graphics drivers for macOS Sierra 10.12.0. These are separate from the drivers Apple ships as standard, and should be considered experimental. These drivers have been known to solve OpenCL issues with certain applications, as well as providing better native GPU power management for certain devices.

NOTE: These drivers are currently the only method to get full acceleration for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750, 750 Ti, 950, 960, 970, 980, 980 Ti, and TITAN X 'Maxwell' graphics cards. There are no current Macs with these cards, so support is absent natively in OS X.

If you've installed the drivers before, you may get a notification to update to the new drivers from the built in System Preferences pane.

How to Install the Web Drivers:
In order to use the alternate drivers on a CustoMac, you must first install the driver package.

As of macOS Sierra, nvda_drv=1 in config.plist under Boot > Arguments is no longer working to initiate drivers. Clover has been updated with a new System Parameter setting called NvidiaWeb.

There's a new method for enabling the NVIDIA Web Drivers in the latest versions of Clover. It can be turned on and off by editing /Volumes/EFI/EFI/CLOVER/config.plist to add SystemParameters/NvidiaWeb. This takes the place of nvda_drv=1 boot flag, which will not work in macOS Sierra.

1. Mount EFI Partition
2. Open /Volumes/EFI/EFI/CLOVER/config.plist with text edit, Xcode, or Plist Editor Pro
3. Edit as shown below:

<key>SystemParameters</key>
    <dict>
        <key>InjectKexts</key>
        <string>YES</string>
        <key>InjectSystemID</key>
        <true/>
        <key>NvidiaWeb</key>
        <true/>
    </dict>

4. Remove Boot/Arguments/nvda_drv=1 if necessary
5. Save and reboot

Hi there guys, I read and did everything in this forum and installation guide. I have a i7 4790k with GTX570. I simply cannot get it working. I tried installing with inject Nvidia in UniBeast ( didn't work ) I then tried installing web and cuda drivers, also didn't work. Then I reinstalled without injecting Nvidia + installing web and cuda drivers and of course changing the configure.plst. Guys I am so close, I don't know what to do any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Still waiting rather impatiently for support for my GTX1060 card! hate having to load windows to see this card shine so I continue on with HD530 graphics on El Capitan before making the transition to Sierra. I guess thats what I get for trying to stay ahead of the curve in the GPU department!

Edit...updated to Sierra but continue on the same way.

Hi , How you are using intel hd 530 on sierra ? plz help me
