    Mac Pro 5,1 Kernel Panics and GTX 1070

    Hoping to get some thoughts and ideas on how to fix the Kernel panics I encounter almost daily. After installing an nVidia card into my system last year — the GTX 980Ti — I encountered Kernel panics for the first time since using my Mac Pro 5,1 (which I originally purchased in 2010). Now I...

    RX 470 Graphic Acceleration

    Just installed a MSI RX 470 ARMOR OC 8GB card in my 2009 Mac Pro. Works right out of the box except for it appears as R9 XXX in About and as far as I can tell it is only operating at PCIe 1.0 x16. I was able to "fix" about by editing the controllers so it says RX 470 now but haven't fixed the...

    iMac with dGPU, does it use the Intel GPU?

    So I have a 2017 5K iMac, which of course includes a dedicated AMD GPU, the Radeon Pro 570. I know the CPU is the i5-7500, which includes the HD 630 graphics. All this time, I assumed that the system didn't use the Intel GPU for anything, but I came across some interesting findings that suggest...

    High VRAM usage on iMac 2013

    I've recently noticed that the VRAM usage on my late 2013 iMac seems to be hovering between 75% and 100%, even after restarting the machine (with nothing open). I've even tried fresh installs of both High Sierra and Sierra and it still seems be the same. On my MacBook Air (with shared graphics...

    Changed graphics card, now imac turning off when playing HQ games

    Hi I changed the graphics card in my late 2009 iMac to the 6970m 2gb card. It all works fine until I start playing a game on steam. This is a very high-quality game and I would imagine that it would take up a lot of power. The problem I have is that when in-game, the iMac will turn off...
