    Is GPU acceleration possible on the original Apple TV?

    I know that the first generation Apple TV runs a modified version of Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, and it’s possible to get regular Tiger and even Leopard running as well. However, those versions run like crap due to a lack of graphics acceleration via the built-in Nvidia GeForce Go 7300 GPU. I think...

    Mac Pro PassThrough Efi Boot Output Fermi etc. 4Mojave

    I am not an engineer, nor programmer but a possible scenario for Mac Pro GPU support in 10.14 could be a PCI/Passthrough solution of MAC-EFI/GraphicsCard to second GPU/Metal/supportedDevice port output (without Mac Efi), maybe AMD Vega only which are officially supported in eGPU configurations...

    10.8 on MacbookPro2,1 (X1600) with GPU Acceleration?

    Tried macOS Extractor out on my old MacbookPro 2,1. Installation went great, I've got 10.8.5 running on the system, however there's no graphical acceleration. Usage is painful with animations. I have inferred from my reading that 10.8.x would support GPU acceleration - and is essentially the...
