Teerachat 0 Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Hi every body, I am a new user of mac os. I use IMaC late 2017 mac os high sierra 10.13.6(17G65). I want to use Titan V as an external eGPU for molecular dynamic simulation. First I download Webdriver-387.10.10.15.15.108.pkg. And it cannot detect my eGPU (I use sonnet breakaway box 350 watts). My question are : i) what driver NVIDIA is suitable for this mac os version and it should be compatible with Titan V ii) what procedures should I follow to complete installation and make it working?. Thank you so much Teerachat Link to post Share on other sites
bbeepp 28 Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Titan V does not work with any Nvidia drivers. You have to use Windows or Linux for your simulations. Link to post Share on other sites

Teerachat 0 Posted August 8, 2019 Author Share Posted August 8, 2019 Hi. Thank you for your suggestion. I installed this driver package and use using window bootcamp then I found that the window can detect the card but it was in external device not in NVIDIA driver. Does any body know that how can I set up it on mac os to let window boot camp that can detect the driver or it is impossible to do. Thanks guys Teerachat Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks guys Teerachat I would suggest digging into https://egpu.io/ website. It's a great source on how to use external gpu's. Link to post Share on other sites
Teerachat 0 Posted August 9, 2019 Author Share Posted August 9, 2019 @bbeepp Hi. Thank you for your suggestion. I went though this website and seek for its topics. But I found that no ones succeeded in installation of Titan V on Mac OS. This is a bad news Link to post Share on other sites
Hervé 2,091 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) As previously mentioned, it's not supported since there are no OS X/macOS drivers for it. So, no, of course no-one could succeed in installing or running the card in macOS... Did you read this? If your eGPU can take an external display, you may have a chance in Bootcamp/Windows. Can't be sure though. Did you try to install the relevant drivers in Windows? Edited August 9, 2019 by Hervé Link to post Share on other sites
Teerachat 0 Posted August 9, 2019 Author Share Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) @Hervé Thank you. I read that boot/camp window topic for setting up eGPU. Unfortunately, my IMAC was 21” so apple blocked the use of external eGPU. Thank you Edited August 9, 2019 by Teerachat Link to post Share on other sites
bbeepp 28 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 If you want to use Nvidia GPU go for 1080Ti that is supported in High Sierra. No Mojave or Catalina support yet, but probably never. or go Windows:https://egpu.io/forums/pc-setup/1080-ti-in-egpu-with-2017-imac-in-bootcamp/ Link to post Share on other sites
