Hi, I could fix the issue with CUDA (claiming for update even if you Web Driver is perfectly loaded). :thumbup:

Why this happens? Because the CUDA Framework is prepared to read an specific version of the GPU Drivers, and with the last update, it doesn't recognize the installed version.

How to fix:
- In the desktop, press CMD + SHIFT + G and put this path: /Library/Frameworks/CUDA.framework/Versions/A/Libraries
- Make a copy of the file name "libcuda_367.15.10.05_mercury.dylib", and rename to "libcuda_367.15.10.15_mercury.dylib"
- Close the Finder's window
- In the desktop, press CMD + SHIFT + G and put this path: /Library/Frameworks/CUDA.framework/Versions/A/Resources
- Edit the file Info.plist and add the following lines as the last childs in the NVDAResmanVersions element and save it:
Code:
        <key>367.15.10.15</key>
        <string>367.15.10.15</string>

To reload the CUDA driver, just open a Terminal window and run this lines (or simply, restart):
Code:
- sudo kextunload -b com.nvidia.CUDA
- sudo kextload -b com.nvidia.CUDA

Now you can see that the CUDA driver is working fine.

Regarding to the rest of the dylib files and by doing a quick review, looks that NVidia (in each update of CUDA) uses the same library and this procedure looks secure:

Regards,

Thanks for the tweak bro, all good now ;)
 
Dears,

thanks for all the information i have found here.
i just have installed a GTX 880m 8giga DDR5 on my iMac 2011 but when i run benchmark, the score is really bad (less than my 5750 and less than what has been expected in the comparisons of CompuBenchCL for the same graphic card).
so i suppose there is a mistake with the driver. i have installed CUDA and the appropriate driver for my OS X build release:

Hardware model: iMac12,2
Active cpus: 8
OS Version: Mac OS X 10.12.2 (Build 16C67)
Architecture: x86_64

here the driver i use currently:
WebDriver-367.15.10.25f01.pkg

Can someone advice me?
thanks.
 
Hi,
I have installed Hackintosh Sierra right now (10.12.2). My display card is Nvidia GTX980. There is no Nvidia driver for this Sierra version yet. Is not it possible to install the old driver (10.12.1)?

there are two versions for 10.12.2

 
This worked for my GTX 950. I needed to reboot into clover and allow NVIDIA Web Drivers to be used and after that all was golden. Thanks for the help!
 
I am using GTX 1060 3GB. I installed the latest one and modify the Clover but still the same. :(

Please help. Does GTX1060 not supportable??

There is no support for the GTX 10*0 series at all.

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


Hi tony, can you please give an Update on your related links above for the macOSX version 10.12.3 . That would be very helpful.

Cause the newest version of Sierra (10.12.3) would not let you install NVIDIA Web Driver, cause it seams like if it's only for OSX 10.12.1.

Maybe it could be very helpful for users like me if you would add the new link next to the older ones in your first post of this thread.
Thank you.
