To disable the AMD GPU on a 2011 MacBook Pro 8,2 or 8,3, follow the guide found here.Ĭoncerning the last sentence: "To disable the AMD GPU on a 2011 MacBook Pro 8,2 or 8,3, follow the guide found here", I might add: and here ) You CANNOT disable the AMD GPU in an iMac.) Weird colors will also be produced when running Mojave with one of these video cards installed/enabled.
If you want to enable GPU acceleration on these machines, you'll need to disable the AMD GPU (This will work on MacBook Pro 8,2 and 8,3 systems ONLY. This includes the 15" and 17" MacBook Pro systems (MacBookPro8,2 and 8,3). Mojave will be almost UNUSABLE without graphics acceleration. A workaround for graphics anomalies in light mode is to enable Reduce Transparency in System Preferences > Accessibility > Display (this might create additional side effects beside the obvious loss of transpareny as some systems with pre-metal AMD graphics render the dock in dark gray).ĪMD Radeon HD 5xxx/6xxx series GPU acceleration: Currently, it is not possible to get full graphics acceleration when running Mojave on a system with a Radeon HD 5xxx or 6xxx series GPU. In the dark theme, these anomalies are not present, while other, less obvious anomalies are present (window corners may not render properly, bottom part of dock menus may have artifacts). Graphics anomalies: Currently, pre-metal video cards used in Mojave will produce a weird darkish grey Menu Bar and Finder sidebar when using the light theme.
Macos sierra for an early 2011 mac pro install#
Using dosdude1's Mojave patcher you can install it easily, but with quite a number of some caveats: That does not mean that it does not work at all. Early 2011 MacBook Pros are not supported and the installer will not work. For an unpatched installer the requirements set forth are final.
