NVIDIA Releases Alternate Graphics Drivers for macOS High Sierra 10.13.4 (387.10.10.10.30)

[adnowa]

Hi Guys,

I update my Sierra 10.12.6 directly to 10.13.4 and I can't run my GPU in the correct way. I try many thinks but none of them do not change anything. The problem that I have is some random glitches, you can see it on attached screens.
I tryed the newest and the older GPU drivers (387.10.10.10.30.103 and 378.10.10.10.25.104). Even when I uninstall it nothing was change, still I have the same problem.
I add also NvidiaGraphicsFixup 1.2.6, Lilu 1.2.3 and disable 'Reduce transparency' - still without any change.

I make an update to 10.13.4 on HDD with SSD copy, I use EFI from pendrive. GPU temperature is normal.

Thanks for any idea how to try fix this issue.

CPU: i5 3570
MB: P8H77-M PRO
GPU: GeForce 660
Two monitors (with only one is the same problem).

Try using BD's method to install .106 drivers, those are the best I've used so far.

On my system the most recent drivers and the fixup are performing extremely well and buttery smooth.
Haven't had that smoothness since I got my 1080 Ti.

But I still got some issues...
There is some color corruption here and there which I don't really care about.
When I turn off both of my displays (2160p) and turn them back on after some time I sometimes only get a black screen and have to reset my machine. I don't have sleep enabled on my system.
Also the WindowServer seems to crash sometimes throwing me back to the login screen.

I really do hope that those bugs will be fixed with the next driver release but until then I can live with the problems...

I'm being really picky here, but I still find there's a small amount of micro-stuttering with my 1080Ti with the latest drivers and latest kext fixes applied. It's just not as smooth as my RX460-based MBP 15". Oh well.

I really don't notice any stuttering at all.
It runs way smoother than it did on 10.12.
I don't think I notice any difference between my hackintosh and my rMBP with Iris Pro. If anything the MacBook is laggier.

Yes i haven't experienced lag on any version of 10.13 except when installing old drivers (obviously not the same as the well-reported system-crippling issues). 10.13 in general is a noticeable improvement, most likely due to improvements in Metal.

Big thanks but still the same problem. I think it's related to my GPU 660 version. Someone has this card and 10.13.4?

Damn. Unfortunately same issue for me with this new driver–broken OpenGL with dual video cards
...going back to patched *25.106

I have the strangest issue. updated to 10.13.4 running patched 25.106 and as of two days ago I'm getting this blank screen and graphical glitch. Has anyone else experienced it?
