... but Nvidia has their own drivers for even the most recent graphics cards that work perfectly fine. Writing this from a OSX setup with a GTX1080.

I take it this is a hackintosh? Are you able to use it ok without signing into any iCloud services, or have you found a way around that?

  AFAIK you were already able to use external GPUs via 3rd party thunderbolt enclosures, it just wasn't officially supported.

  iCloud works perfectly fine on Hackintoshes.

    I logged into one on Sierra. Every iCloud service I use got locked down over the next 20 minutes and it wasn’t fun getting them back. Turns out I’m rather locked into the Apple ecosystem. Somehow Apple detect hardware configuration and check it on login. The mess it left wasn’t pretty.

Perfectly? The latest drivers lag like crazy

  This is unfortunately a known issue, at least in the community if not by nVidia. The current workaround is to patch an earlier known-good driver version to work on whatever release of High Sierra you're on. I'm currently running 387.10.10.10.25.106 on 10.13.3 without lag. https://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/nvidia-update https://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/nvidia-update

    Interesting that some people have no lags. I have also used that script, but stutters are still present.

  The drivers were great for a GTX 650Ti in 10.8 and 10.9. They worked fine for games like Borderlands 2 and Arkham Asylum. The drivers are terrible for a GTX 1060 in 10.12. After running for a while, even basic desktop operations bog down to the point of being unusable. I haven't tried 10.13 yet.

  I might be still using Sierra after hearing about all the issues with High Sierra. I don't want to spend a few days configuring my Hackintosh again!
