Cannot get 1080p out of EVGA GT 630

This replaces the -f bootflag

 <Key>UseKernelCache</key>
<string>No</string>

as you have added -f to the kernel flags you can delete the above from your org.chameleon.Boot.plist - I am aware that you have this set to "Yes" at present which contradicts the -f that is listed in the Kernel flags section.

Hi,
So I decided to re install the OS and here is now my org.chameleon.Boot file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

and my smbios file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Try the following. Change the System definition to Mac Pro 3,1 and 4,1 to see if there is any difference. Changer the IGPEnabler setting to 'No' and also try changing the GraphicsEnabler setting to No - this should be set to YES, but some people have reported that 'No' worked correctly for them?

Tried with GE=No and IGPEnabler=No and Mac Pro 3,1 but still no luck. I also booted with -x.

-x is safe mode so that in its self may not give you good resolution. Since you are using a Dell motherboard it may be worth you trying to boot using

 GraphicsEnabler=Yes pciRoot=4

I am not aware of it working with your motherboard but I think it is an option that should be explored.

Still no luck.

Cannot get 1080p out of EVGA GT 630 2GB

Also note that my motherboard doesn't have any integrated graphics, which is why I need to use my graphics card. My GPU also has 2GB of VRAM.
I'm still not giving up!

Once again, any help from anyone is greatly appreciated.

Does anyone have any idea?
