^^^^The pulled 108 driver is NOT patched.  It has worked, as downloaded, on all iterations of HS 10.13.6.  And if I recall correctly it worked fine on 10.13.5.

Why would you patch 108 to work on it instead of patching 223 the SAME way to work on it?

I literally did a one line terminal command and rebooted and was good to go. whatever 17G6030 fixed was important enough to push it to users who had 17G6029. often apple makes newer builds but only pushes them to people who don't have previous one. This one they pushed to EVERYONE.

Apple modified Security Update 2019-002 this morning.  Why not change the designation, I do not know   Anyway the new build no. is (17G6030).  The Driver anding in 123 no longer works.  The pulled 108 Driver is still working along with Cuda.

The new driver for Sierra 10.12.6 is 378.05.05.25f14.   F13 is the old one.

did somebody else already figure it out?

Looks like we're still waiting on your brilliance!  What can we do to help?

Does anyone know the number for LAPD's missing persons bureau?  Rominator is MIA!

Nevermind. I scored a 2012 base 27" iMac (i5 2.9GHz GTX660M 16GB).  I'm gonna upgrade it to an i7-3770 and 768GB blade SSD and call it a day.

Anybody need a 780M, 770M, 765M or some Dell 2GB 6970M's or Dell 7970M's?

( this thread for 7970 Sapphire Dual-X owners )

Last year I got a Sapphire Dual-X 7970 3gb here in japan for ¥6,500 ( US$58 ).

I successfully flashed it and got it to run at 5.0gb/s in High Sierra and it now runs nice and quiet with an EVGA PowerLink connected.

This model has two fans and I eventually noticed that the rear fan spins up at startup and then shut down.

Tonight I ran Sapphire's Trixx in Win 7 and sure enough when I entered the FAN section in Trixx the rear fan started spinning. So it does work !

Trixx showed that tonight ( March = winter in Japan ) the ambient case temp was 24°C and the front fan was spinning at 28% of capable speed.

Japan's hot & humid summer is rapidly approaching so I have set the fans to 60% when the card's senors hit 50°C. Hopefully that is when the 2nd. fan should spin up.

So apparently the 2nd. fan spins up when the card gets to a set temp.

I will see what happens when where I live in Japan hits 40°C. outside.

I hope that this info is useful for any cMP Dual-X owners.

NOTE :  Google showed numerous ( 67,000 ) posts regarding the Dual-X 's 2nd. fan not spinning up. https://www.google.com/search?source=hp&ei=wXKKXOuMO8b38QX_nJHABQ&q=Sapphire+Dual-X+7970+2nd.+fan+not+spinning&btnK=Google+Search&oq=Sapphire+Dual-X+7970+2nd.+fan+not+spinning&gs_l=psy-ab.3...2495.47181..49237...0.0..0.246.5760.25j22j3......0....1..gws-wiz.....0..0j0i10j0i13j0i13i30j0i13i5i30j0i8i13i30j0i8i13i10i30j33i160j33i21.nZSOhe7g-d4

I am performing a firmware update on a 2006 1,1 Mac Pro:

Boot ROM Version: Mp11.005C.B08
SMC Version: 1.7f10
OS X 10.7.5

Nothing in the Mac Pro besides the Hard Drive and stock NVIDIA 7300GT Video Card.

I have done dozens of these firmware updates successfully.  However, this time I am running into the following message:

The program has encountered an error: 5530.

Any help would be great!

Hi to all, I have a MacPro 1,1 flashed in 2014 to 2,1, with 2 Xeon X5355, 16gb RAM, SSD boot disk and an ATI7970 3gb. At this moment run Mavericks and I’m thinking upgrade to El Capitain. Any suggestions or negative experience ? Any suggestion to other MacOS for best performance ?
Thanks in advance
