There are also newer Pascal Quadro cards that are not listed. I have included the Maxwell Quadro workstation cards in the unsupported list. The RTX 2060/70 and all related 16 series GTX cards will not work in any version of macOS as there are no web drivers. For example, the newest RTX cards from Nvidia are unsupported in Mojave. If the Nvidia card is Maxwell (745/750/Ti or second gen Maxwell 900 series), Pascal, Turing or Ampere based, there are no Mojave or Catalina drivers that you can use to make it work. Support was maintained in Big Sur for that laptop. A prime example is the Late 2013 MacBook Pro which has a GK107 based GPU.

If any Mac is still supported then the GPU in that Mac has to retain support as well.
GEFORCE CARDS FOR MAC INSTALL
If you are using a Haswell i3, i5 or i7 CPU in your hackintosh and want to install Big Sur, then use the iMac 15,1 SMBIOS. They are perfectly capable of running Big Sur. For some unknown reason, Apple didn't give the 14,1 14,2 and 14,3 iMacs from 2013, Big Sur support. Some of those MBAs and MBPs from 2012/13 still have support in Mojave, Catalina and Big Sur. Q: Why does Apple still support these older Kepler based GPUs after switching to AMD ?Ī: Apple used similar Nvidia graphics processors in 2013 Macbook Airs and Macbook Pros is also a great place to research specific cards. Source: Q: How can I determine whether my Nvidia card is Kepler based and not Fermi or something else ?Ī: You can look up the specs on the website These Maxwell based cards can also benefit from the web drivers: GTX 750, 970, 980 and Ti versions. High Sierra 10.13.6 will give you the option to use 10 series Pascal cards if you install the Nvidia Web drivers.

See the list below: Currently Supported Nvidia Cards The GTX 750 and 750 Ti cards are all Maxwell based with one exception, the 750 Ti OEM. Ten Kepler based Quadro cards and three Titan cards will work. Both have the Kepler GK104 GPU inside.įrom the 700 series you can use the GT 710, 720, 730 (not the Fermi versions) and GT 740, GTX 760, 770 and 780 plus the Ti versions. The best cards from the 600 series are the GTX 670 and 680.
GEFORCE CARDS FOR MAC HOW TO
More about how to determine which chips are installed in specific Nvidia graphics cards later in this article. The Nvidia Chip Codes for these are: GK104, GK107, GK110 and GK208. There are approximately 26 Kepler cards that you can still use today with modern versions of macOS. Many of the 600/700 Series Kepler Graphics Cards are still supported in macOS Mojave, Catalina and Big Sur. Building a CustoMac Hackintosh: Buyer's Guide
