Insanelymac's forums seem to have gotten some progress with fermi cards, but apparently it only works at low resolution. Hey, it's better than nothing, though. Right?

There are nvdia drivers voor SL 10.6.4 now.
Here is how to install http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index. ... =0&start=0

I am getting a gtx 480 now I know they work.

I did the following with my already set up 260 system, used my current install, but I have a 480 instead. Do you have another card you could install with then do the following?

Download this and install the drivers.

*REMEMBER TO DO CUSTOM INSTALL and deselect the sound kext in the options

Generate the your GFX string here

registration required for download.

1. install drivers using aquamacs installer (deselect sound kext in the installtion)
2. turn off computer
3. Took out GTX 260
4. plugged in GTX 480
5. booted up - resolution is not full
6. Generated GFX string
7. Put generated GFX string on my .plist
8. added graphics enabler line on my .plist

<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
<string>Yes</string>

9. restarted, fully working

You are awesome. That worked. Sometimes the simple answer is the right answer.

hi all,

I think I'm confused between all the posts..

What the summary of how to get the following working -

gigabyte x58a-ud3r
gtx 470

Install with a different vid board first? Then install the 470 and update kexts?

Thanks,
oliver

That's how I did it, but I already had an install with two GTX 260 cards. I'm not sure how to do it with a 470/480 initially, but I think there is a way.

Hello guys

I followed the instructions on the link in insanelymac. So my card is working full resolution and QE/CI but i think i have a really poor performance i am getting 7 fps in cinebench.

They seem really low.

Just want to know what are your results ???

Is there something i am missing to get better results???

Thanks
