I've found NvidiaGraphicsFixup 1.2.5 works better than 1.2.6. NvidiaGraphicsFixup 1.2.6 often gives me broken graphics like random lines, black triangles, etc., especially for safari. Is it just me?

Likely because opengl rendering path isn't updated anymore and is buggy. but that's work aorund 1.2.6 uses to get around lag for 10x0 users using metal and window server

Opengl is very buggy and you want to use Metal for window server IF it's working for your setup. I think the new fixup has config options to disable the opengl work around to try to use 1.2.6 with metal

I also read several positive reports on hackintosh ****** that the new nvidia drivers fix the lag with metal and pascal cards, so that work around is no longer needed. Although I can't say all other driver bugs are fixed well enough to stop using the 378.x.x.x ones.

If it is feasible maybe a clean install of 10.13.4 using latest drivers + latest NvidiaGraphicsFixup will help.

Yeah man. I could never wake from sleep correctly to my 4k monitor. I had to hotplug several times to do it. It was just easier to restart. But with the new drivers...it works! Yay. Oh and so far it hasnt glitched out which the 1060 was known to do. Good stuff.

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?

I was going for the same issue last month. I found that my NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext and Lilu.kext weren't updated. I downloaded them, and updated and doesn't happened anymore

Try update your kexts and see if the lag is gone, if isn't try to make a fresh install with the new drivers

Thanks for the help! I upgraded to 30.106 plus NGF 1.2.6 and the combination has worked well for me so far, no more visual corruptions!
