The most powerful video card you can use in any version of macOS is the Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti or its fully enabled version, the Titan Xp. No Nvidia web drivers for Mojave or the GTX 20X0 series have been released. If you want to use modern Nvidia cards, you will have to stay on macOS 10.13 High...

If you are starting off with a PC and a Snow Leopard retail DVD then you need a graphics card that works out of the box. Naturally you can upgrade the card once you have updated your macOS to 10.6.8 or a later macOS version. I believe the retail DVD came in version 10.6.3. I do not think the DVD...

When the Snow Leopard retail DVD came out in 2009 it was sold in two versions. Single license version for $29 / 29 euros Family pack with five licenses for $49 / 49 euros I bought the family pack 49 euros, but there does not seem to be any difference in the box between single license and the...

There is a market for used CPU trays. A dual processor tray may be had for some $250 without processors. The fastest processors, the 6-core Xeon 5690s are about $100 each.

For a Radeon RX580 to work on a 2008 Mac Pro 3,1 you need MacOs 10.13 High Sierra Dosdude's High Sierra patcher The Metal drivers for RX580 and other AMD video cards require the SSE4.2 instruction set which is missing from the Harpertown Xeons on Mac Pro 3,1. You can stay on High Sierra or get...

The Mac Pro 3,1 can run 10.13 High Sierra or 10.14 Mojave with Dosdude's Mojave Patcher, but you will have to upgrade your GPU. Metal drivers for AMD video cards require the SSE4.2 instruction set that is missing from all Core 2 processors. The built-in Nvidia drivers work, but you are limited...

There is an interesting thread from 2015 on the Netkas forum on developing a Mac rom for the GTX 770. Rominator, Fl0r!an and rankel are sharing experiences. GTX 770 Mac No progress seems to be made. Rominator sums up the issues: There is not, nor ever will be a "one size fits all" Mac 770...

I ordered these cheapo Bluetooth dongles from AliExpress two years ago for US $0.73 apiece (including postage). These two seem to be the same product, at least they use the same images. High Sierra does not recognize the dongle but lshw on Linux gives this information. description: Bluetooth...

The same problem is discussed and solved in this thread. The cause seems to be a missing OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi in the Clover installation.

You need to manually copy a working /EFI/CLOVER/ and /EFI/BOOT/ directory to the EFI partition of either one of your fused drives. Clover installer and MultiBeast are unable to find the EFI partitions when launched from a fusion drive. See my latest post here: [Guide] How to install High Sierra...

I guess the GCN 4th gen Polaris 10 chip is much like a die shrink of the GCN 3rd gen (GCN 1.2) Tonga chip used in the Radeon R9 380 and 380X. Something like a tick in Intel's Tick-Tock model. How does GCN 4th gen differ from GCN 3rd gen? I found this text online: New hardware usually supports...

The blog post by Mark Harris is about the new features of CUDA 8 available with the Pascal Architecture. One of these features is "Unified Memory". This paragraph seems to confirm that support for Pascal is coming to Mac OS X: Also note this: I interpret this to mean that nVidia is getting...
