Originally created by @DWomack on GitHub (Sep 26, 2023).

Intended use of container is as a test bed.

VNC client will drive it.

What are the requirements for GPU in this instance?

Currently using UnRaid to host containers. Machine has 64 gig of ram. It has dual Xeon E5-2630 v2.

I don't think this has iGPU.

The question comes down to Nvidia or AMD and which?

Thanks

Dennis

NVIDIA is not supported. Period. Best luck with AMD Polaris (10-20) up to Vega (beware of some issues). Source: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/macos-limits.html#cpu-support

So we can not use cuda acceleration using RTX GPU, only AMD like Rx 550~ Rx 6600?

Since no Apple devices ship with NVidia GPUs, no MacOS supports NVidia drivers.

That link I sent states currently this:

NVIDIA's GPU support is complicated:

Maxwell(9XX) and Pascal(10XX) GPUs are limited to macOS 10.13: High Sierra

NVIDIA's Turing(20XX, 16XX) GPUs are not supported in any version of macOS

NVIDIA's Ampere(30XX) GPUs are not supported in any version of macOS

NVIDIA's Kepler(6XX, 7XX) GPUs are supported up to macOS 11: Big Sur
