    Minimum nVidia graphics required to run MacOS Mojave

    Good info in this thread :D So I'm thinking about getting a GT 710 to accompany my 980 Ti, and had a couple of questions I wanted to put out there, as I'm sure there are others in my boat looking to do the same thing. (I dual boot macOS and Windows, and my monitor supports multiple inputs)...

    [SOLVED] Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080/1070

    I really need a new card for Vive. The 970 I've got now is great and all, but a few VR games exhibit minor jitter... I'm not normally a frame rate snob, but it's REALLY, REALLY important to have a steady 90fps in VR. If new drivers aren't released soon, I might try to find a second-hand...

    NVIDIA Releases Alternate Graphics Drivers for 10.10.2 (343.02.02)

    Damn. I'm not using that kext because it doesn't detect my mic correctly. I had to perform the extremely tedious Toleda modifications, which did work, and took a massive 30 hours to get it working. Is there a way to do this without that hypothetical new kext?

    Power Hack i7

    Thanks guys! I have some pics that I took while building it. I'll try to find them. Did a gaming "torture test" to make sure the PSU didn't overheat given the less direct airflow. It felt lukewarm after hours of gameplay. The modified 120mm fan positioned internally at an angle seems to...

    Power Hack i7

    There's a lot of great G5 / Mac Pro case mods out there. Most of them involve cutting a hole in the back of the case, or swapping in a motherboard tray from another case, both significantly altering the stock appearance. These alterations are usually tastefully done, but I wanted to keep the...

    8800 GT Mouse Lag (Not QT)

    I found this thread while looking for a solution to my QT/iTunes mouse lag, and discovered that the disabler kext posted here does not work for me. My guess is that it just doesn't work in Lion, but nobody noticed because pretty much everyone has long since upgrade their 8800/9800 series cards...

    voodooHDA HDMI no Digital output

    After blood, sweat and several tears, I finally sort-of got AppleHDA working (VoodooHDA was hopeless). I say "sort-of" because of two notable caveats: 1. I only get stereo output on all 889A and HDMI devices. 2. I have four total display devices (3 monitors + one TV). My 5850 only supports...

    voodooHDA HDMI no Digital output

    ok, I just ran the time to dollar conversion, and it turns out I could've bought another high-end graphics card for the amount of time I've spent on this. So that is exactly what I intend to do... Any recommendations? Qualifications: 1. Must be at least as fast as the 5850. 2. Must have...

    voodooHDA HDMI no Digital output

    So I spent some more time on this... I found this thread on InsanelyMac. When I ran the shell script, I saw the following: Probing codec #0... HDA Codec #0: ATI R6xx HDMI Perhaps this means my card is being falsely identified as a 6 series Radeon. But let's leave that one for now...

    voodooHDA HDMI no Digital output

    Same problem here, but I have a 5850. After days of Googling, I'm pretty sure we're the only two people in the world with this issue. Hardware: Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 PowerColor ATI Radeon 5850 1GB (this is the card with HDMI) NVIDIA 8800GT (could this be the problem?) Samsung plasma In Audio...
