Some issues with my graphics card (MSI Geforce 9800 GT 1go)

[sam101]

Hello .
I have a Gigabyte P55M-UD2, a i5 750, 4gb of DDR3-1333 (from GSkill) and a Geforce 9800 GT (1024mb)

So, everything is working, except a thing: I have some strange issues with my graphics card, a MSI Geforce 9800 GT (1024mo), i use "NvEnabler" (which is in the blog) :

-There is a VGA and a DVI port in my graphics card, if i plug my monitor (which has only a VGA port) in the VGA port, i have no QE/CI and the monitor is in 1280*1024, whereas if i plug my monitor on a DVI/VGA adaptator, then in the DVI port, it works.

-OpenGL performances (As i see in XBench) are bad (125 in XBench), like those in a IMac 24' with a Geforce 7300 GT.

Any idea of what i should use ?

Thank you very much .

Try adding the following code to your com.apple.boot.plist. It's the EFI string for your card. This will (hopefully) fix your issues. Otherwise, download EFI Studio and tweak the xml.



You must remove NVenabler and rebuild caches to test. Good luck!

Your string didn't work for me, so i used EFI Studio, and it works without NvEnabler, so it's good.. I've still crappy results at XBench, but no more strnage messages at boot with -v...

I have another question: Can i have 1680x1050x32 at boot (With the Apple ?) ?

Just add the following to com.apple .Boot.plist:

<key>Graphics Mode</key>
<string>1680x1050x32</string>
