Working Mojave Installation - How to get Nvidia GT710 & UHD 630 to work together

[deepak111]

Hi Guys,

I am a beginner at setting up a Hackintosh. But with the super useful posts on tonymacosx86 I was able to get the system working with Hackintosh Mojave.

The only thing which I am not able to figure out is to get both integrate Intel UHD 630 & Nvidia GT 710 to work at the same time so I can run three monitors - 2 from the Intel UHD 630 and one from GT 710.

Currently, my setup is working 2 monitors connected to Intel UHD 630 integrated graphics. I checked out in other forums that GT710 can work with Mojave using older drivers.

I have attached my EFI folder. I would appreciate if someone can help me with the steps to run both the dedicated & onboard units in tandem.

Thank you.

That would conflict with the way a real Mac works. When a Mac has an IGPU and a dGPU the IGPU works 'Headless', i.e. with no display connected. The dGPU (GT710 in your case) is connected to the display output. The IGPU is used for Compute and additional GPU related processes, not for driving a display.

To get the IGPU and dGPU working together you would need to use a Coffee Lake Framebuffer that is not designed to run headless with the UHD630. Have a look at Jaymonkey's guide for Lilu and its plugins - https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/an-idiots-guide-to-lilu-and-its-plug-ins.260063/
