> I run a 980 Ti alongside a 950 in my hackintosh tower and graphical glitches on the desktop happen pretty regularly despite both cards being perfectly healthy.

The Nvidia web drivers are not great but there are so many factors that could be producing those glitches.

I've built about a dozen hackintoshes since 2010 and while I've experienced many problems I personally haver never seen graphical glitches.

I don't think it's fair to expect the same level of reliability from a frankenstein you've built yourself than a commercial product.



I would normally agree but at this point, hackintosh users are probably one of the largest groups of people making use of the Nvidia web drivers… the only others are going to be old Mac Pro holdouts and the tiny number of Mac users using Nvidia cards as eGPUs.

I think in my case specifically the graphical glitches are caused by having dual GPUs. That’s a somewhat uncommon configuration, but not so strange as to not test for.


Yes but the web drivers users are probably less than 1% of all Nvidia users.
