Several months ago I built my first hackintosh. The specs was in my bio.
GTX 970 worked well with web driver for me, but it was a bit out date and the warranty had already been voided. So I decided to sell it and bought a brand new Sapphire RX 580 Pulse.
I deleted the Nvidia web driver and kexts, and switched to RX 580. The card should work OOB as I had WhateverGreen in my EFI kexts folder and checked RadeonDEINIT in the config.plist. Unfortunately the hackintosh wouldn’t boot, it rebooted every time when loading. Safe mode or verbose didn’t work either.
I borrowed and GTX960 and boot on my back up ssd to check the settings in clover. It seemed that nothing wrong in the config.plist. After several fails I decided to get a fresh install, then copy all my applications and data from my back up ssd.
Now RX 580 works flawless, 2k@60Hz via a single DP cable.
So is there any easy way to switch from Nvidia to AMD?
