Post your GFXBench Metal results

Seeing as how Apple has pretty much abandoned OpenGL and moved on to Metal, I feel old benchmarks like Unigine Heaven and Valley don't accurately represent what works best with macOS anymore. Instead, I think a benchmark that compares Metal performance would be far more useful for macOS users.

GFXBench Metal is free from the Mac App Store.

Here are my results:
CPU: i7-8700K @5GHz

starting with macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 there will be native support for Aquantia AQtion based 10GbE network cards.
digging around in the latest developer beta of 10.13.2 revealed a KEXT named "AppleEthernetAquantiaAqtion.kext".
path to the KEXT: /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/

this has to be the 10GbE NIC of the soon to be released iMac Pro. it might be easy to get 10Gb ethernet in the near future...

OSX including Yosemite and beyond, frankly hasn't offered very much that I want, so I'm going to give Mavericks another try. There are some good installation guides on TMX, bit the problem is the installation files are nowhere to be found, though I do have a dmg of the Base System.

Being a clod, I don't know if I can use this to install MAV or not. Can anyone tell me what I would have to do (keeping it as simple as possible), or where I can find an installation file that Unibeast or...

Help on i5 6400 B150M-D3H-CF

After some fiddling I managed to install High Sierra but I can only boot from the usb stick. When I try to boot from the usb stick I just get some ACPI-errors as you can see in the picture. How do I fix this? I checked numerous other posts with similar issues but I didn't manage to find a solution there.

Also, after running multibeast I can no longer use my mouse and keyboard but somehow I think that's an unrelated issue which will be easier to fix in a later stage.

Hi there,

I just tried to get my CustoMac up and running and can't get through the installation proces.

- I adjusted all the settings in BIOS as prescribed in the guide, with exception of the Serial Port (I can't find it).
- After erasing a brand new 960 EVO and starting the installation proces, the pc restarted.
- After that I booted back into the USB installer in order to prevent the APFS file system to install.
- After reboot I chose USB and at the boot screen chose High Sierra. Then I...

I just got this ASRock Deskmini Kit with the H110 motherboard, I3-6100 and a single sodimm of 4gb-2133 ram and added a WD 3200BEV laptop drive. I followed the latest Skylake uefi unibeast guide but the HD530 is giving me fits...i.e. kernel crashes during boot up with Clover. I got ELCap to install by booting the usb with -x -v (safe mode).

I've tried setting clover options to no intel and 0x19120000 but can't get to the setup screen after install. The bios has no options to set...

Hi There,

Anyone experienced a graphic glitch issue when opening any video? this problem appeared after updated to high sierra 10.13, however there was no problem before in sierra 10.12.6, and my graphic card supposed to be native and no need for Nvidia web driver,

So, any solution for this or it's a system bug?

Hello,

I am new to Mackintosh, i recently did a new Install of High Sierra, which is working so far, instead of nearly everything like Network/Audio/full Graphic Support.
I like to do step by step, so i start with onboard Graphics, which only has 7mb and do some flickering while startup and login.
I tried several settings in config.plist with different IntelGFX Fake IDs and Platform IDs. I attached config.plist, IOReg and 2 Screenshots of kexts loaded with clover and About this Mac.

When I start the installer in verbose mode, i can see disk2 I/O error.
This prevents me from installing macOS as:
When I make a installer via Install Disk Creator, I can see drives in disk utility but when I try to format it, it gets stuck at creating partition table. It also says the disk is "Uninitialized" and doesnt show the exFat partition that I created in Windows.

I have a fully working Hackintosh Sierra 10.12 laptop in case anything was needed to edit on the installer drive.

Hi, I successfully installed High Sierra 10.13.4 on my Acer Aspire E5 573g, but now I have a huge screen problem. It is flickering! I already read that I have to set the BIOS to legacy but my I can only set UEFI or Legacy and I didn't managed to get clover working in legacy mode :p. Are there other fixes or ways to install clover in legacy mode? I read the clover laptop guide for the creation of the legacy clover usb but nothing changed.

Switching from RX 580 to GTX 1070 Ti

Hi,

I have the chance to put my hand on a Gigabyte GTX 1070 Ti Gaming 8GB, I am currently having a Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8GB (which is awesome btw). I know the GTX 1070 Ti is much more powerful

I was wondering if it was worth making the switch. Other than having to install NVidia Web Drivers, are there any down sides ?

Will sleeping still work ? If I have Intel GPU enabled, HEVC will still be supported?

Thank you
