Hello all, I'm about 12 hours into working on my first hackintosh, having spent the past 4 trying to get my video card to perform well.
I have a PNY GTX 770 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133499), and am seeing very slow rendering time and screen tearing (I can see the wallpaper render band by band as the computer boots, also, I can see band by band painting each time the Chrome Browser redraws a page.) I am able to get multiple monitors and 4k resolution, etc... It is just an issue of performance when programs try to use graphics acceleration.
Programs that twitch, tear and lag:
Other programs seem to run well. I don't have any games or heavy graphics programs installed yet.
I have installed the new NVIDIA drivers for 10.10.1
Experimented with all combinations of grapihcsenabler and IPGEnabler
What else is left to try and which configuration files may be relevant?
cat /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist

- Initial boot, drawing of desktop
- Google Chrome
