Geforce GTX 950 on Sierra! Works?

[alexmacossierra]

I'm running the GTX 950 on Sierra and it's working.

What kext or Nvidia driver are you using?

What kext or Nvidia driver are you using?

Is it so hard to read the first, oh no - THE ONLY, page of this topic?

Hi, I just installed Hackintosh on my computer. The only thing thats not working is graphic, exactly GTX 950. I installed driver and allowed Nvidia web driver in config.plist. System still can't find it.

Profiles need to contain at least your primary system to assist others with helping you

I am sorry, I am dumbass. Just did what guy said here before and it works! Gonna fill that information into my profile...but my next question is: Does it matter, when my FAN on GPU (GTX 950) isn't rotating? GPU is cool, CPU fan is working, I am just curious, because I don't want to destroy my GPU somehow with this. Thanks!

A lot of the modern gpu's work that way. The fan stays off until a certain temperature is reached, then the fan speed scales up with temperature. Check your manufacturers website to confirm you have such a model.

The guy here was asking kind of the same question: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/504186-gtx-950-fan-not-spinning/

So if anyone was curious like me, the answer is, that fans are not spinning if the temperature is not above 60 degree.

Thank you WonkeyDonkey!

hey everyone,

I have a GTX950 and it was working fine on 10.12.4 Sierra/WebDriver-367.15.10.15f01 and I was running at 4K res. I installed and upgraded to WebDriver-378.05.05.15f01 and now my rig boots but the resolution is not utilizing my 4K resolution (1080P in all refresh reates) . Any ideas on how to get it back my res??

Cheers

SO got figure out why the low resolution... I had a digitial-DVI adapter output to the HDMI port of the 4K. Once I plugged straight into the DVI, I got the 4K resolution back !!! sweet.....
