PookyMacMan Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Back on October 24, 2011, Mohamed Khairy pointed out an error that Chameleon did not have native support for multiple nVidia GPUs. Thanks to zef, there is a temporary patch in Chameleon 2.1svn revision 1903 that allows for multiple nVidia GPUs to be injected simply by Chameleon's graphics enabler, without any DSDT edits or EFI string injections.

buoo Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 It would be great having the multiple ATi graphics card support too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TH3L4UGH1NGM4N Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Would be but nVidia cards have always had much ease in working with OS X due to nVidia actually making drivers for them as opposed to ati/amd where the drivers only come from Apple.

scififan68 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 So this means I could finally sli two GTX 560 Ti's in OS X? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PookyMacMan Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 In a way, yes, and in a way, no: As you probably know, you need hardware 3D acceleration (QE/CI) to have a truly functional OS X installation. However, when 2 GPUs are used, only one would have QE/CI and the other would not. This fixes it so you can have two GPUs at the same time with QE/CI (4 monitors, yeah, baby ) but this is not the same as SLI. The GPUs work independently of each other, so you can have two GTX 560 Ti's in OS X working independently from each other, both with QE/CI, but not both linked together in SLI. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starobrno1 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Still it works very good though, even my old noname 7300 gs I picked up really cheap on ebay years ago work very good with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
