anyone who recommend cheap amd gpu card like nvida 7xx series for many mac version?

If you wanna be on the safe side go for AMD R9 series like 270x or 280x.

My R9 270X works ok even with the beta 7 but i don't know if that's gonna change with the final release or not. But I wasn't able to get acceleration on my R9 270 (non X version)

Monterey since beta 7 has no Nvidia graphics drivers. You may use Chris111 solution but this is the end for Nvidia in macOS.

That's good news...I haven't caught up with all the backlog so I will have to read up on the solution...just got in last night and set the PC on autopilot. Thanks for the information :)

I use my  Kext-Install.app with the patch Binaries files

Install done Reboot 

Test on DELL Optiplex 790 Sandy bridge system i5 2500K UEFI booting OpenCore 0.7.3  Works well :rofl:

Hi Chris1111, I would really like to use your kext-install.app but when I try to download it, Github has a note that it's been temporarily removed because of Big Sur issue. This is the page I landed on - is it the right page? https://github.com/chris1111/Kext-Install/releases/tag/V1. The other question I have is do I install all the kexts in /12-Monterey/Extensions/Graphics-Acceleration/Nvidia-Kepler/ or just GeForce.kext? Many thanks in advance.

See my repos  GeForce Kepler Patcher

Bad news. GeForce Kepler Patcher not working for me. I caught a Kernel Panic. Not sure what the issue is...I've ensure csrutil disable and csr-active-config were set as required. Gatekeeper was disabled. Here's a photo of my screen. I'll leave my pc for now. Let me know if you need me to get more info.

Thanks. All RX560 are polaris? If it the case, it's one of the cheaper cards atm for the hacks, even if it has a high price compared with a few months ago.

 

I have the ROG-STRIX-RX560-O4G-GAMING, polaris 21, with external power, 4Gb DDR5 at 7Mhz, with a consumption of 80 watt, it works correctly in Monterey so far.

It can be Ellesmere (as mine) also compatible from HighSierra to Monterey.

 

Other cheep cards may be R7 240-260, 350, 430 Oland family. Compatibility is questionable.

And new card RX630 I don't know what is it

RX 630 is a laptop part, you cannot purchase such a GPU to put into a desktop PC.

And performance sucks too, it is a very low-level, entry powerful (powerless? :) ) card.

There are OEM cards for PCIe slot for desktop soldered with the mobile chip. It's a pity I can't find it in markets.

Can somebody please explain to the steps to get the full beta 7 installer. 

 

Link to download that was given a few pages back. You do need to have a working older macOS Monterey Beta, or maybe an older macOS version will work too. (such as Big Sur/etc)

It's a Package installer though, so if you want a DMG it is not that.

I have scrolled back but i am unable to find. I have a copy of all installers so far for Monterey up to beta 6.

All i need is to know how to create a working beta 7 usb installer.

Use this script 

Make sure using Imac 17.1 / SecureBootModel must be j160

If you have Laptop try to find the good Platform Infos and Securebootmodel for the machine

Because every machine is so differant for this Beta 7 its Crazy. . . especially for laptops

 

Then Create Install Media

after the install you have the secound stage Install, complete the stage 2

Put of the PC then Put SecureBootModel Disable

Complete other steps installations

 

This is work for me on any PC"s Laptop using latest OpenCore 0.7.4

 

Personal experience on my Probook 6570b I am use MacBook Pro 13.1  Securebootmodel j215 after installation in the macOS installer
I shut down the laptop and put Securebootmodel back to disable and it will work immediately for all the next steps (Install Stage)
