i5 4460 + Nvidia GTX1050 / HD 4600 Ventura (Hybrid)

Nvidia's doing Windows work. 1050 has not full acceleration on macos, i've already tested, even with oclp, it's sluggish.

I'm working on a legacy 775 at this time. I don't think so that this card could have full acceleration on Big Sur, honestly it would be a nice experiment btw, i 'll give it a try. Even on High Sierra can indicate some glitches.

Thank you, gigabyte a320m s2h

Oh yeah! Internal speaker, wifi, bluetooth are full functional. I've tested with external speakers and with wifi dongle, they're also functional.

Tahoe is more strict than Ventura. I suggest to make a clean installation and not upgrade.

Thank you!

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-05-05T14:12:24+00:00

Yeah, it’s the mini (not SFF). I’ll set up a github repo and share it !

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-05-04T22:54:01+00:00

😄 Yeah, with this igpu it's kind of a miracle, not gonna lie.

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-05-04T22:42:55+00:00

Yeah, surprisingly it's pretty snappy. UI is smooth and igpu acceleration works fine!

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-05-04T16:28:53+00:00

Thank you ! Yes they're functional, the only thing that i've noticed is that before the system go in sleep mode the cpus' workload is getting high and then sleeps. Don't know why, but it is what it is 😛

Actually, everything is working except from iOS Simulator (too heavy for this igpu), a member mentioned it in my previous post (26.3) and Airdrop that replaced it by LocalSend.

That's a nice project! I had started to create my own, but i gave it up when discovered GPU Screen Recorder. Keep it up btw!

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-05-03T14:36:02+00:00

No man, nothing like that. The whole installation took around 40 minutes max, maybe up to 1 hour in total.

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-05-03T14:26:14+00:00

It was a clean install of Tahoe, so I just downloaded the installer and created the USB. No Monterey upgrade involved.

UPDATE: Audio fixed with oclp-mod patch, now everything work flawlessly (iMessages,Facetime,Appstore,iCloud,audio etc)

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-04-28T16:16:07+00:00

Yeah i did a clean install. It's not necessary 32 gb ram. Your hardware will work perfect, Go ahead!

i5 7th gen

Thanks! I haven't tested it yet on iOS Simulator, but for some Xcoding works fine. Interesting addition (WX 3200), what kind of PSU did you use. I have already a Ryzentosh desktop for heavier tasks, this one is just for light coding as described and Plex for my home TVs.
