Let me know if you figure it out. I'm also using an NVMe drive and your post is scaring me away from updating (although I'm not using the HackrNVME kext - I'm using the Rehabman alternative)

Yeah this is my big fear. I don't want to even lose Maxwell driver support.

FWIW I have a 980 Ti and dual 4K screens and don't have any issue on 10.12.4.

The web drivers may be developed by a third party, but they are definitely officially released by Nvidia. The download site is on their domain.

Yep. As quickly as they are releasing new drivers (meaning people are actively working on the Mac drivers), I'd hoped to have Pascal support long ago. I may have to go the route of two GPUs soon.

I have the same issue, and have to power cycle the monitor to get G-sync to load. I wish there was a better way.

Can you clarify how to do the patch or is there a good guide? I'm using Rehabman's patch for my Samsung 950 on 10.12.0 and am afraid to update since it was a real pain to get it working on 10.12.0.

Do offices count? 13" retina Macbook Pro x3, 12" Macbook x1, 27" 5K iMac x2, 27" 144p iMac x1, 21.5" iMac x1, Intel i7-based hackintosh x2, Mac Mini x3 plus a few iPad Airs and Pros.

Same here - they used to be very helpful, but now Tier 1 support is awful. I spent 45 min with them on the phone to unlock the iMessage account with the 12-digit code we've all seen because he "never heard of this problem" and had to research. Eventually he sent me to Tier 2 support, and the...

I saw that, but I'd prefer no drop in performance if possible (with a 4K screen, I'm only getting ~45fps in Witcher 3 anyway). I did some more research and it looks like with PCIe 3.0, there may be no drop at all even at 8x.

I also have a Z97 board and am considering getting this SSD with a 4x PCIe adapter. Being that I would use this M.2 NVMe SSD for OS X and my GPU mainly for gaming in Windows, does anyone know of an easy way where I could disable the M.2 SSD when booting into Windows so that the GPU gets full...

The V300 is an entry level SSD. You're getting the benefits of a super low latency but not the speed (which still makes a big difference).

Please post relevant build information in your post if you say the update went well or failed. It would be helpful for diagnosing issues. Mostly, post the boot loader you're using, system specs, and version you're upgrading from.
