mtwo Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I tried to search about how to do it but i dont find anybody that explains it a little deeper. I know that the 8400 and 8600 have similiarities in the quadro world the 8400 to a NVS 290 or a FX 360 and the 8600 to a FX 1700 or FX 370 Is ther anyone that know how to do it cause i´ve read about people who have done that do you think a editing of the device id will solve the problem?

mtwo Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 I think even the FX 570 uses the same chipset as 8400gs Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/75484-convert-8400gs8600gt-into-quadro-to-get-ciqe-support/#findComment-533115 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Gosh Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 What about the Quadro NVS 140m ? is this one also 8400 based?

macgirl Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 You cannot gain QE/CI just because you convert your graphics card to a quadro equivalent, even is more probable that you have better chances converting a quadro to a non-quadro version. 8400 and 8600 are supproted with 10.5.2 update's kexts (at least now with the beta).

Hiya, Do you by chance have links to where I can find instructions for such kexts?
