Hello,
At the moment, I am not able to login after installing the nvidia web drivers because the keyboard doesn't work anymore. This issue has been posted in several threads here but does not seem easy to fix. It is possible that I need framebuffer injection but that is yet another non-trival process that may, or may not, fix the issue. There are threads here from users with the same motherboard and CPU and a GTX 1060 that got it working without framebuffer injection.
I have an XFX Radeon RX 570 RS Black Edition that I am not using and I am wondering if it makes more sense to just switch to that instead of the GTX. The card is on the list for out-of-the-box support and also on the list of Apple recommended graphics cards. The 570 would be a somewhat better GPU as well.
If so, what is the proceedure for making the switch? It looks like the RX 570 needs RadeonDeInit, but what else would I need to do? Does it make sense to modify my current installation (the working one without the nvidia web drivers installed), or should install the card and do a fresh MacOS install?
Thanks,
