I installed a new Nvidia graphics card in my El Capitan Mackintosh and found that it needs special drivers.
Can you guys point me in the right direction to get them installed?

Thanks!

The drivers for the GTX 10x0 cards only work in Sierra 10.12.4 and newer with the appropriate Nvidia drivers.
 
You need to be on Sierra 10.12.4 then you can install the Nvidia web drivers and get the card working.

Bad news - The drivers only work in Sierra.

That sucks....but thanks for the info guys :)
I'll have to wait a bit I guess....maybe they'll release the drivers later.

They won't ever release El Capitan drivers. You'd need to update to Sierra.

Go to Sierra, it's stable enough.

El Capitan is not supported.
 
Well,the issue is that if you are using your Hackintosh for audio recording and happen to use PreSonus you are out of luck. PreSonus has been officially almost forced out of Mac after Sierra and High Sierra. I can not update to either of these and I have a Nvidia 1070 so I am stuck with flickering issues and do not feel like disconnecting my monitor back and forth from windows and Mac every time from my intel port to my Nvidia card. Nvidia should consider this issue and update their web drivers to El Captain.
