Nvidia Drivers for Mojave 10.14 Not Available, no WorkAround works well

[ReKtByLuLu]

Older Geforce chips dosen't need web driver, but you need to look if there are Metal 2 ready... You have some luck, a lot of Nvidia GPU dosen't work with Mojave, because if they're too old they don't support Metal 2 API.

Web drivers are needed since you are using a Kepler card (8XX series, some works without...) to Pascal and Turin GPU (GTX10XX; RTX20XX).

If you are using a newer GPU like me (GTX1060) you are stuck without the graphics acceleration...

i plan to buy a RX580 8gb (they are really cheap right now) because AMD chips are natively working in macOS since Sierra (No drivers needed).

(PS: Sorry for my ugly English but i'm french and it's not very easy to me to write ine english)

Iray ray-tracing SDK which only works with NVIDIA CUDA.

This is for sure a problem with Apple currently. They forgot that computing system including hardware and software is a platform other solutions. I had an AMD graphic board and it worked out of the box. But I had some issues with it. Not sure what exactly caused problems, but I decided to replace it with NVIDIA graphics card and issues were gone. And several years ago I had issues with comp based on AMD processor (linux/windows box). Based on my experience I'm not huge fan of AMD products.

I bought for new hack NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970, which wasn't very cheap at the time of purchase, but seems that there is no solution soon. Not sure is really Vega 64 stable and good enough. Maybe.

As switching to Mojave isn't very important at the moment, I stay on High Sierra.

I don't blame Apple for inventing Metal. For example, it work's really fine on iPad Pro. I suppose that, they were forced to invent new solution for graphics. But they didn't pay attention on variety of graphics cards. I guess that Vega was picked up just as easiest way to apply Metal. Less programming to get it work on various graphics cards. The biggest money is made from mobile devices, not from comps. It's obvious that Apple's understanding about comps has changed, they treat it as "singular device", like mobile devices. They don't care that you might have a need to build custom solution.

Seems that the future will be Linux after all. And if someone doesn't know, Microsoft distributed item with linux kernel on this year. Probably we will see Microsoft Linux too one day.

This does NOT enable hardware acceleration. So this is not a real workarond.

Well, at least now I can look at the display, as it shows the normal HD picture. So, still thanks, yet it's easier to wait.

I am looking lots of news for nvidia mojave latest support. I read lots of news but I not understand Apple braing thinking for MAcbook Pro have nvidia graphics card. Because I never play game and some graphic extension this status quickly fixed.

If apple not fixed this status, I never buy new macbook because lifespan dead.

I'il leave it to you...

Does it allow using multiple monitors?

How long do you think this will last? What can the past teach us?
