    NVIDIA Releases Alternate Graphics Drivers for macOS High Sierra 10.13.3 (387.10.10.10.25)

    If anything, .161 has introduced more lag and hangs. However, I'm "only" using 490MB for WindowServer as opposed to 22G...:rolleyes:

    Is Hackintosh full disk encryption actually possible yet?

    Did a fresh install of High Sierra just yesterday, followed the normal directions from tonymac, then when I was done put AptioInputFixB2-NoPointer.efi in /EFI/CLOVER/, turned on Filevault and it's working fine. It would be nice if AptioInputFixB2-NoPointer.efi was standard instead of having to...

    Tutorial & Testing - How to change 14,2 to 17,1 (Skylake) with NVIDIA - EASY GUIDE

    I'm currently running 17,1 and my benchmarks aren't that different from 14,2, but there is the headache described above so my next build I will stick with 14,2 I think.

    Is Hackintosh full disk encryption actually possible yet?

    Pretty sure after reboot you need to continue in recovery to allow it to complete FV2. Also, did you install AptioInputFixB2-NoPointer.efi first? Also as a PS: Before this fix I had partitioned my main drive and put my home directory into an encrypted portion and had a dummy account which I...

    Is Hackintosh full disk encryption actually possible yet?

    I installed AptioInputFixB2-NoPointer.efi from the insanely Mac thread, but I am curious if it is now part of Clover by default. I haven't had a chance to do a fresh install, but it's worth trying it at this point I would think. Otherwise, it's continued to work fine and even was OK with the...

    [Solved] Safari Icon Glitches with NVIDIA Web Drivers?

    Thanks, I didn't find the result b/c I was looking for Safari-specific glitches, which is what I was getting. Your fix, however, works like a charm. I wish there was a way to mark it as an accepted answer like on stack overflow!

    [Solved] Safari Icon Glitches with NVIDIA Web Drivers?

    Hi, I just got a GTX 1050 and installed the latest NVIDIA Web Drivers. For the most part it works fine, but for some reason in Safari all icons are glitched out, has anybody else seen this?

    GTX 1050 - Sleep?

    I got the 1050 and sleep is working, though I have trouble with my firewire audio interface on wake...so one problem solved, another pops up. :crazy:

    GTX 1050 - Sleep?

    I've been using the integrated HD530 graphics since I built my hack many months ago and aside from sleep it's been fine. I am considering getting a GTX 1050 - is sleep likely to work?

    What was your primary reason for building a hackintosh?

    I do scientific computing with a lot of fairly large data sets (e.g. 150+ gigs of network traffic logs) as well as music and video production for fun. I was in the market for a new Mac and had money to buy one but saw nothing that met my needs. Simply put, I needed good single and multi-core...

    Is Hackintosh full disk encryption actually possible yet?

    I have had FDE with FileVault2 working for well over a month now. I had to put in AptioInputFixB2-NoPointer.efi manually, but I think it may now be in Clover by default as well as the newest multibeast - which hopefully means out-of-the-box functionality!

    Skylake - Benefits for Changing SMBIOS?

    Thanks for the metrics, very helpful! I'm getting 5332/16948 which seems about exactly in the middle of your scores for single-threaded. Multicore usage for me has more to do with my ability to write code which takes advantage of the cores as I'm doing some specific data-analysis tasks. I...

    Skylake - Benefits for Changing SMBIOS?

    So in terms of benefit we are talking slightly better CPU usage? On single-core processes I wouldn't mind a bump, but if the cost is a major headache for a very small bump I think 14,2 makes sense.

    Skylake - Benefits for Changing SMBIOS?

    Hi, My first build has been running fine with the default iMac 14,2 SMBIOS and I am running an i7-6700k CPU. That said, I am wondering if there are any benefits to using the iMac 17,1 SMBIOS? I am only using integrated HD 530 graphics and have no additional GPU installed. I have seen some...

    Advice on Research + Fun Machine?

    Yeah, I've noticed a lot of the uATX cases don't have many slots, so I'm trying to figure out which ones do - I have had to look at the pictures pretty carefully. Putting OS on SSD and data on HDD isn't a desirable option since I want to process a lot of data off disk pretty quickly (eg running...
