rkelleyrtp1 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Greetings all, Long story short, my ATI R290X cards (I have two) are not working with 10.12 so I am looking for a pair of decent NVidia cards that are quiet and less than $120/ea. I picked up a pair of PNY 730 cards at BestBuy today for $60/ea. They worked great out of the box are are too loud. I am willing to spend a few dollars more to get good silent cards. Background: I have a Gigabyte X99-UD4 with a 5960X CPU, 32G RAM, and a 1TB SSD running MacOS Sierra (works great!). I use it to run virtual machines, some office productivity, and produce pod casts. After getting the ATI cards, I realized I don't need high-end cards for what I do - just some solid (quiet) cards to do normal desktop chores. Any suggestions?

Mirone Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Some people report that GeForce GT630 also It works very well with Sierra. I can not give you 100% sure since I do not have a Graphic card of this model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can not give you 100% sure since I do not have a Graphic card of this model. GT630 works, confirmed with Asus and Gigabyte branded 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch_de Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 GT 740 works perfekt! Kelper seems to be problemless and much better then Fermi (oder GT xxx) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkelleyrtp1 Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 Thanks for the replies. Just pulled the trigger on this card at Amazon - EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti SC 2GB GDDR5 for $110. Hope it works like the 730 cards I had in the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirone Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Someone else could confirm me if Geforce GT 730 works perfectly with Sierra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vusun123 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Someone else could confirm me if Geforce GT 730 works perfectly with Sierra? The Gigabyte branded card works with WebDriver and InjectNvidia=false, and looks like no problem yet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robertr Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I'm running an ASUS GTX670 DirectCU 2 TOP and I find it to be VERY SILENT.Working perfectly in all Mac OS versions I tried including Sierra. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirone Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 nVidia GT620 working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkelleyrtp1 Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 UPDATE: Received the 750Ti and it works great. Very quite with great performance (going to order a second one!). The only issue was getting the Nvidia Web Drivers to "stick" when booting into Sierra. Since Sierra does not recognize the "nvda_enable=1" option in Clover, I had to add the following from this thread: <key>SystemParameters</key> <dict> <key>InjectKexts</key> <string>YES</string> <key>InjectSystemID</key> <true/> <key>NvidiaWeb</key> <true/> </dict> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirone Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 GT 740 works perfekt! Kelper seems to be problemless and much better then Fermi (oder GT xxx) GT 710 also uses Kepler architecture (Gk208) that way it can work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
