    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...

    Hey there ? I'm having some trouble lately with my wife's iMac 4k '17 with AMD Radeon Pro 555 GPU. It's panicking whenever it's set to sleep for more than a few minutes, and I know the kernel panics are caused by the GPU.

    MBP random shutdowns after update to 10.14.6

    MBP random shutdowns after update to 10.14.6, I used the workaround I found on here to disable thunderbolt 2 by adding .BAK to the kext file. Now it isn't allowed so I have to carry around an external drive plugged into the thunderbolt 2 port.
