macOS High Sierra Public Beta 8 is Now Available

[Henties]

it does depend on your GPU yes, isnt the 750 ti supported out of the box without web drivers though? and Henties was asking about the 1080, which does not work

No not the 1080 but rather the GTX 970

If someone did a clean install of this Public Beta 8, can you please upload latest APFS.efi here which you can get it from the installer image of MacOS High Sierra Public Beta 8.
the link to do that is here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/install-high-sierra-public-beta-to-a-new-partition-apfs.226446/
A post that @vulgo did a few weeks ago.

Thanks !

Here's apfs.efi for others in need of if. After updating from Beta 7 to Public Beta 8 I had to copy over my apfs.efi using clover USB installer.

Yes, it was a clean install. In BIOS I had to set the "Other PCI Devices" to Legacy. With UEFI the M.2 SSD is not recognized. Clover can be installed with UEFI and you can set the SSD UEFI as Boot option. This is for Gigabyte GA-Z270X-Gaming K5.

So the public beta 8 recognizes correctly the name of the GPU? Vega 64 I mean.
Or did you edit something?

Unfortunately RX Vega still not recognized by the system, I added the new lilu and whatevergreen to the kexts folder to see if it makes any difference, it only corrected the name but in performance wise nothing changed

hi guys.
sorry for this maybe noob question. can apfs.efi and hfsplus.efi coexist? or does one exclude the other?
