So I just updated to Sierra, and I had some trouble getting the Web Drivers working. I've succeeded, and everything appears normal––I have graphics acceleration and the UI is snappy––but if I try to play a game problems become apparent. I can't get an average FPS above 25 or so.
I can't confirm that this is a Sierra problem because I had issues in the past with the card becoming slow, but they magically went away on their own. What *is* new is that the VRAM isn't getting reported accurately. "About this Mac" says I have 0 MB.
According to the Unigine valley benchmarking tool, when everything was fine I got an average of 45 FPS. Now, 19. It is also reporting the card has 256 MB of VRAM.
Zero ideas on how to troubleshoot this. All I know is that it isn't a hardware issue as everything is dandy on the Windows side.
Attaching my config.plist located in /HD/EFI/Clover. Thanks!
Edit: Fixed the VRAM problem by reading the readme, but the performance problems remain.
