GTX 1060 performance on 10.13 High Sierra

[vulgo]

as I mentioned before almost all WindowServer errors are also present on my laptop, which works fine

These look interesting

The last 40 seconds of the log is filled with these two, no info level messages from that category either.

log show --info --debug --predicate "category contains 'performance_instrumentation'"

Yea, not sure what to make of those. Weird thing is I can't see them with log stream but I can see them with log show --last 1m. The PIDs referenced are mostly Terminal, IntelliJ, Activity Monitor and iStat Menus.

do you have them locally?

I have them on my laptop2 also.

Yes I have them. I think its Apple logging window server performance via a Performance Analysis framework - could be related if its new in 10.13. Maybe it can be turned off.

I need some people with real Macs that came with nVidia GPU to send me files so I can pass it on to Apple.

Is anyone willing to do that here?

I have GT750M in my MacBook, but it can't go 4K@60Hz, not to mention 1440p@60Hz HiDPI

Could you help collect some data for Apple? Prefferably with latest version of High Sierra.

How can I contact you? I don't want to muddy up the forum. I'd like to help the community.

Doesn't forum have private message feature?
Tried to create conversation with you as participant but got "You may not start a conversation with the following recipients: izo1."
Added myself to your followers, looks like you succeeded in creating conversation

Has anyone been successful with running 3840x2160@60Hz?

I cant seem to get this option on my hackintosh.

I am using 17,1 definition, have lilu and NvidiaGraphicsFixup which came bundled with latest multibeast. Do I need to use Shiki or CoreDisplayPatcher?

Im able to run 1080p@60Hz using SwitchResX but highest 3840x2160 is 30Hz.

Also I dont seem to be able to use Hardware Video Encoding in my apps (mainly ScreenFlow)

Are you using DisplayPort? macOS doesn't support 4K@60Hz over HDMI.

You need to ensure True Color Depth is enabled on your monitor in order for 4K@60Hz to be available over HDMI
I have 4K@60Hz working over HDMI without CoreDisplayPatcher on my GT 1030, but when I use HD630, 2160p is not available at all without it.
I still have to use DP, since at 4K@60Hz over HDMI I get no monitor signal after changing resolution or after display sleep
Yet even HDMI 2.0b can't go higher than 2160p, so 1440p@60Hz HiDPI over HDMI is not an option.

Actually, I just disconnected DP cable from monitor and WOW! I got 1440p@60Hz HiDPI working over HDMI!
I looks like after all, 2880p doesn't need to be transferred to monitor in order for 1440p HiDPI to work.

And when I don't use SwitchResX for resolution switching, I even don't get monitor signal lost.
Sometimes I still have to turn off monitor and turn it back on after display sleep, to avoid picture destroyment, but that's a progress.
I'm not really sure what exactly changed or caused that, I did a lot of tests before and never saw 1440p@60Hz HiDPI working over HDMI.
It's a huge deal for me, because when using DP I have to keep my video card outside of the case.
