Hello guys

Maybe someone have alredy an ready-made EFI64 VBIOS for nVidia Quadro K2000 or K2000D to use on Mac Pro 5.1 / Mojave ?
Anything working, but without boot screen.

Or maybe can help me integrate the Mac EFI Part in the ROM image ?

I attach 2 ROM Images, one 80.07.64.00.06 for K2000D and another for K2000. The both cards are very similar, the only difference is:
K2000 = DVI + 2x DP
K2000D = 2x DVI + mDP

Thanks !

I can’t get the RX560 to work at all. No cursor, no “?”, nothing. The monitor behaves like the computer is not turned on at all (it is). I am planning to make a post about what I’ve done. In the meantime, I’ve come across something strange with how AMD handles the RX560 cards.

There are actually 3 versions. First there is the 2 & 4GB versions. Then there is a strange “lite” version of the 4GB version. A “true” RX560 card should have 1024 Stream Processors (16CU), which is true for both the 2 & 4GB versions. Then there is the “Lite” version which only has 896 Stream Processors (14CU).

The only way to see which version you’ve got is to look at the bar-code sticker on the box. If it says 14CU, you’ve got the lite version. The box itself gives no information at all about this.

The thing is that there was and earlier RX460 card that had 896 Stream Processors! Could it be that the computer sees the RX560 (Lite) card as a RX460 card, and refuses to recognise it?

Would netkas’ patch work with a RX460 card or is it RX560 specific?

EDIT
If I decide to upgrade to an RX580, would netkas' patch work with it?

ThatguyfromLA ? Have he made statements that he is working on it?
Is there much downside to upgrading from High Sierra to Mojave, or is DOSdudes patcher so good now that it should be a no-brainer?

I've used the dosdude patch with Mojave for about two months now, with no problem at all. Just remember to activate the Legacy Video Card option in the patcher if you're using the original 2600 video card.

@ 3mvideo & wax2012

check your PM (messages). I sent you something.
I flashed 4 of those Gigabyte Rev 2.0 cards for myself and my buddies. Everything (bootscreen, miniDP etc) is working fine so far.

Hi, i have the same graphics-card. can you send me the bios?

thanks...

I am using the 387.10.10.10.40.105 driver with a 1070 card on Mac Pro 3,1
I am experiencing some kind of signal loss between my monitor and graphic card if I let the monitor turn off. I then have to unplug and plug the HDMi cable to have the signal back on.

Anyone else experienced this issue?

No, HighSierra's driver uses sse4.2 instructions in more places, requiring more patching.
You better wait for sse4.2 opemu kext from that guy at MacRumors

Hello netkas
Will you make this patch for MacOS Catalina ?
According to dosdude the macos patcher is compatible with macpro 3,1

I have the same card, have you had any luck with the rom? Are all port working (apart from 2nd DVI)?

Long time reader first time poster,  Thanks for all the information that everyone has posted but honestly I am lost and pretty confused, hardware not an issue machine is running with 2x 5365 3.0Ghz  pretty
well see attached for configuration but Processors are not recognized and I just cannot get the 1,1 to update to 2,1 the RAM disk is being created but on restarting nothing changes.

I have tried several of the methods described and still not getting anywhere

Could one of you kind people please post a step by step for those of us who are maybe a little hard of thinking

Thanks in advance
