Complete noob when it comes to running this eGPU script, so, I would really appreciate some easy guidance here.
I am running OS 10.11.5 on a iMac(27-inch, Late 2012) and I am ready to run the goalque script but before I do so, I just want to make sure I do things in the right order to prevent bigger problems.
I have been following the forum here
https://www.techinferno.com/index.php?/forums/topic/7989-script-automating-the-installation-of-egpu-on-os-x-inc-display-output/&page=1 Full computer specs here:
iMac (27-inch, Late 2012)
Processor 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX 1024 MB
eGPU hardware on hand here:
Apple Thunderbolt Cable 2.0m
EVGA GeForce GTX 970 Ti 6GB GDDR5
be quiet! DARK POWER PRO 11 750W PSU
Akitio Thunderbolt2 PCIe Expansion Box
Powered Riser Cable 16X PCI-E
According to
http://osxdaily.com/2015/10/05/disable-rootless-system-integrity-protection-mac-os-x/ I need to disable System Integrity Protection first, correct? or no?
From what I understand the goalque script should detect OS X product and build, and automatically download and install correct Nvidia web driver, sounds great! Should I uninstall old drivers?
So, download goalgue script to desktop, open up Terminal and then execute the commands below?
chmod +x automate-eGPU.sh
sudo ./automate-eGPU.sh
and thats it?
Oh and I found this video very helpful but I am unsure what exactly is outdated in it. What instructions to follow and what to throw out.
