This drivers???????

Are there other drivers?

Thanks

That's the CUDA driver, not the graphics driver. 10.8 has native drivers for the 6XX cards. So you don't have to install any drivers, there are newer drivers available on nVidia's website that enable more than 2 monitors support (up to 4 depending on what your card has), but they do require that you have updated to 10.8.2 first.

I couldn't find anything specific on this. AFAIK, all of the 6XX cards should be supported. So I don't know of any reason why not, but this is not a particularly powerful card. So it definitely won't provide a dramatic speed improvement.

I just bought an ASUS GTX 650 Ti and it doesn't seem to work OOTB. I might be making failed attempts at this though.

I'm using the latest version of Unibeast as of this post and I've tried GraphicsEnabler=no/yes, PCIRootUID=0 (as mentioned in another post with someone that has 550 Ti.

Booting from the CD, I constantly get KPs. So to "fix" it, I unplugged my graphics card, and voila, I can finish the installation setup. I plug it back in, and I'm back to seeing KPs.

Chimera v1.11.1 r1394

Anything else you guys think I should try? I can be the guinea pig ;P

I bought GTX 650 Ti gigabyte 2gb oc edition. Doesn't work OOB, keep getting kernel panics. Onboard HD 4000 works and let's me boot to desktop, but whenever I plug in GTX 650 Ti, it boots to white apple screen and shortly kernel panics. Have GraphicsEnabler=No set, and tried PCIRootUID=0 but nothing works. Suggestions?

UPDATE!!! Got GTX 650 Ti fully working, see screenshot.

Steps I took:
Used internal HD 4000 to set system up.

Made sure to include GraphicsEnabler=No in Multibeast

Installed Nvidia drivers for 660 Ti from http://www.nvidia.com/object/macosx-304.00.05f02-driver.html
(note: there are BOTH graphics drivers and Cuda drivers available for OS X. Some people have gotten mixed up thinking only Cuda drivers were available. Cuda are available at another link on their page.)

Installed AppleACPIPlatform.kext for ML, from this link http://www.tonymacx86.com/mountain-lion-desktop-support/72956-10-8-2-problem.html

Installed FakeSMC and NullCpuPowerManagement kexts from this link http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/283293-gigabyte-ga-z77-ds3h-mac-install-guide/
(note sure of Null... was needed, but did it anyway)

Shut down. Inserted GTX 650 Ti, made sure it was enabled in BIOS (PEG). And it... worked!

This is running 10.8.2

I can confirm as well that the GTX 650 Ti is working too, just got it to work yesterday by installing the Nvidia drivers as mentioned the previous post, FakeSMC from Multibeast and removed the com.apple.driver.AppleTyMCEDriver kext from /S/L/E to stop the KPs. Then I plugged in my 650 Ti, and boom! Multi monitor support with full graphics acceleration!

Were you running 10.8.2 from scratch or from an update? I Have a GTX 650 (non TI) in 10.8.0 and my system does not recognize it as a GTX 650 just some nVidia Card. I am trying to find a method that will for sure get me updated to 10.8.2 and get my GTX 650 some drivers .
Thanks!

 

[lifelike27]

Download the 10.8.2 combo update?

 

[FranktheDinosaur]

I know that, but there were some kexts that were giving problems. Is there a specific procedure that will fix everything?

 

[lifelike27]

Well I did have to delete the com.apple.driver.AppleTyMCEDrive kext to stop the KPs. After that, I haven't a single problem so far!
