tonymacx86 NVIDIA Update Retired - NVIDIA Official Drivers

[tonymacx86]

NVIDIA released new universal drivers for 10.6.8 through their site- I've linked them as well from the downloads page. Therefore all GeForce 4xx Fermi users should use these new drivers.

The latest official NVIDIA Drivers for Quadro and for "Fermi" GeForce 4xx Graphics Cards. Recommended for Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and replacement for tonymacx86 NVIDIA Update.

I'm guessing I shouldn't be moving my GTX 580 into my hackintosh any time soon?

The new Drivers off the NVidia site don't seem to work if you use an EFI String to enable your card. I choose the EFI String over NVEnabler because I get much better performance while playing World of Warcraft and running Cinebench.

When I upgraded to 10.6.8 and used the EFI String w/ the new drivers, I would only get a black screen even though the system was up and running. W/ Graphicsenable = Yes and NVEnabler loaded, everything was fine with the exception of the performance woes. I Manually loaded the drivers from the nvidia site that were released in March, and everything seems to be running great, I can once again use my EFI string, Wow and Cinebench has returned to normal.

Hello everybody !

I have a
- Asus GTX 470
- Asus P7P55D-LE
- i5 Intel
- (Graphics Enabler = Yes / MacPro 3.1 / VoodooHDA / Nvidia Update 2)

and I would like to update to 10.6.8 with new nVidia drivers.
After 10.6.8 update do I need to install Official NVIDIA Quadro 4000 for Mac Drivers OR CUDA Version 4.0.17 OR both ?

Thank You
