there was a question from waspinator: "Is it possible to use the built in graphics card of the CPU (Intel HD 4600) for macOS while having a Pascal card (1070) in the computer to use in Windows?"
can someone confirm this?
EDIT: so i tried by myself, (i have gtx 980ti Gigabyte windforce)
need in bios enable IGPU, init video to IGPU, save config, reboot, HDMI cable plug in mother board..
when boot i have working both GPU and IGPU (HDMI cable plug into GTX 980ti - working, HDMI cable plug into MB HD4600 - working), so ok, working solution but only when you have drivers installed in mac, of course in my case, because i have gigabyte 980ti..
if i boot with nv_disable=1, (must tried because new GTX 10xx there is no drivers, so we need tried how these card will be behave), so after full boot to os (nv_disable=1) in my case fans spinning at 100% rpm, when i was 750ti (gigabyte) - drivers not installed - fans was spinning normal, so i guess for some models is not solution and we dont know how fans on gtx 10xx will be behave,
so, if you have dualboot mac and windows (only for games) like me, yes u can have igpu for mac and gtx 10xx for windows but how gtx 10xx will behave in mac without drivers? (fans spinning?, temps?, core/mem freq? etc..) thats the question..
and someone write u need unplug a plug HDMI cable everytime when boot from mac to win, not true, u can have 2 cables pluged to monitor, for example HDMI for mac, and dvi for win and u just switch source on monitor
i was consider buy gtx 1070, but i ended with 980ti - performace is same as 1070, i have drivers for mac, for my monitor (2560x1080) in mostly games i have 60fps without problem, yes power conconsumption is higer - but i do not care
sorry for my english
