Just like CUDA, OpenCL has no impact on framerate, unless you're benchmarking OpenCL or CUDA specifically. Neither is necessary in order to play games, there is no benefit to patching OpenCL or installing CUDA unless you're using production software that specifically requires them to be installed.

Sorry, was on windows playing guild wars 2. Gonna try moving to macpro 4,1 and all those suggestions

Thats true but some users have reported doubling their FPS on the GTX 560 in Cinebench by enabling OpenCL.

It looks like terminal cant find the GeForceGLDriver.bundle. This either means that you dont have the GeForceGLDriver.bundle installed of that it cant find the file that will enable OpenGL for your card. Can you find the .bundle in the finder?

[dannymichel]

Yeah, it's there. I think I made that change a while back, which is why the substitutions were not made

That could be why, but the code said that it couldn't find the file or directory, so there might be a part of the .bundle that got deleted. Can you send me the .bundle?

That doesn't make any sense, Cinebench is an OpenGL 2.0 benchmark, OpenCL is not involved at all.

Cinebench is an OpenGL benchmark, it has nothing to do with OpenCL.

I know, it was just a suggestion I found on the TonymacX86 forums. A user posted that he saw significant increases in his GPU benchmark performance when he enabled OpenCL for his GTX 560 Non-TI.

Here is his post

Hello friend.

I use Asus GTX 560 Direct CU (not Ti), but I noticed something from my experiments.

1) I run ##### and selected:

2) "NVDIA GF100 Fermi Patches" and clicked on "Open ClEnabler 10.7.0." (first option)

3) Repaired kexts and permissions with Kext Wizard

4) Rebooted and run Cinebenchmark.

Final conclusion: I had 46.5 frames now rather than having 21.6 without this solution.

I DO NOT SWEAR this is gonna work for you, but try it out. I had to do a lot of kext repairs throughout my experiments...

As for the resolution, I found already patched kexts for my graphics card and worked!

Take care!

My guess is that in the process of installing the OpenCLEnabler he managed to change an option in his GeforceGLDriver.bundle or something similar

My best guess is that something is missing in your GeForceGLDriver.bundle which is disabling your OpenGL hardware acceleration

It said it couldn't find it when i used the typo code. It found it, but made no substitutions when I corrected the error.

It said

Can't open /System/Library/Extensions/GeForceGLDriv­er.bundle/Contents/MacOS/libclh.dylib: No such file or directory

both times. I ended up taking the .dylib out of the bundle but you were right, the changes were already made.

Here is a kext from ML Developer Preiview 3.

Try it, the 10.8.2 kext might not be properly identifying your card
If this doesn't work, the last thing I can do is edit the AGPM.kext, which controls clock speeds.

[dannymichel]

Replaced it. Doing MyFix now. Will report back.

Gave me a KP
