GTX 970 not being detected by OS X

[Chumanix]

Hi guys, just got everything up and running on my second hack, but the only issue (besides audio, but I haven't troubleshot that yet, will update thread with my solution) I'm having is that my GPU isn't being detected by OS X 10.11.6 MacPro 3,1 (I have the NVIDIA web drivers installed along with CUDA). I also have the boot flag set (nvda_drv=1), and double checked that NVIDIA is not being injected. But every time I boot up, it uses the display graphics (5mb) instead, and CUDA pops up saying no GPU is detected. Interestingly enough, the preference pane reverts back to the OS X default driver, but it's not selected? - it says to restart to activate the change to the OS X driver. Any ideas? I have already read through both the stickied threads on Graphics Setup and Solving NVIDIA Driver issues. Screenshots and config.plist attached

Edit: Should also mention that I'm using a DP to mDP connector to my monitor.

Update: Audio issue was worked around by plugging in my USB-DAC.

The 5MB VRAM usually indicates you still have nv_disable=1 in your config

I don't see it in there when checking the /EFI/CLOVER/Config.plist

Change your system profile to iMac14,2

I also noticed that when viewing my config inside CC, the Inject boxes are greyed out, and the two upper boxes are filled in. Weird that I've tried every fix I've found and am still having issues. I must be missing something.

Attach your config

Progress, maybe. I noticed that NvidiaWeb was unchecked in CC, so I went ahead and checked it. Rebooted, and now the name of the graphics has changed to Display 5mb. Not quite what I wanted. Interesting.

Attach your config

Here is my latest config:



edit: I have also tried booting with GraphicsEnabler=Yes, but it just boots up with the Nvidia Chip Model 5mb again. Have also tried disconnecting the GPU.

Where is your config from? It was not created by Multibeast or Clover Configurator.

GraphicsEnabler=Yes is not a valid boot argument with Clover.

That's really weird, I never downloaded a config from anywhere or anything, I just followed the guides. After installing OSX, I installed clover, clover config, and multibeast. I also tried generating a config with CC and the issue is still there with that. Maybe I should try a fresh install?
