RSN Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Hi Y'all. I have a weird problem with the upgrade of Sierra to HS but ONLY( ) with the video card, Asus GT620. The install itself had a problem which got stuck but was solved by a patch the the AppleAHCIPort (found in the config.plist) that was another post , but it finally booted and the install went well. Its the same Hackintosh in a different SSD(same size/model), hence EVERYTHING is the same in terms of Hardware. In Sierra the 2 graphics cards work perfectly with all 4 screens(attached 2 of the 4 screens in Sierra). Needs the NVCAP in order for all 4 screens to work. (config.plist) In HS they do not work at all, image attached(gt620.png), does recognize (or tries to) all 4 screens, but rendering is useless, garbled, and flickering permanently. I have tried a lot of combinations of kexts, configs, drivers64 and drivers64 UEFI removing components to no avail. I mean a lot. Every NVIDIA kext, Nvidia web drivers, Cuda drivers, injects kexts the whole nine yards. No result. Same results for a APFS and non-APFS install. As I said, same Hackintosh, no hardware changes. Actually Im writing on the Sierra SSD and all works fine. Anybody any idea? Thanks in advance.

PPCnostalgic Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Hello. I had the same problem with Nvidia Quadro2000 (Fermi) and I ended up changing the video card to a newer GT1030 (Pascal). The GT1030 is a very good video card (not for a gaming machine) for daily use, it supports resolutions up to 7680x4320 and performs well with new Metal2 graphic engine, compared to my previous Quadro2000 it's more than 2x faster and it's cheap too. Mine is the low profile model, 2GB, silent passive cooling, I paid only 69 Euros shipped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works perfectly with El Capitan and Sierra but same graphical glitches as above with Quadro 2000. I switched to the slightly newer Quadro K2000 and all is fine with Graphics however I can not wake up screen or keyboard after sleep. I gave up on High Sierra and went back to Sierra for now.
