Nvidia has made good on its promise to release Pascal drivers for the Mac. This makes it possible to drive macOS with 10-series cards like the popular Geforce GTX 1080, or the newly released Titan Xp.
May 26, 2016 The driver for the GTX 680 Mac Edition is exactly the same one that will run on a Kepler iMac, since the GK104 GPU is essentially the same in both cases. Beta in this context means 'not officially supported'. As of now, will the GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 work on Mac OS X? Reactions: karsten. Asgorath macrumors 68000. Mar 30, 2012 1,573 479.
Hey Guys, I have a Mac Pro and I purchased a GTX 1070 but now thinking of returning it in the next few days and buying AMD because there is no driver support for MAC OS Sierra on the New Pascal cards. They have been out quite some time so I assume they had drivers but they do not.
Up until now, users wishing to use modern Nvidia GPUs on a Mac were forced to use last-gen Maxwell-based hardware, such as the GTX 980 Ti and other 9-series cards. With the release of the Pascal drivers, more options have been opened up for eGPU users, legacy Mac Pro users, and Hackintosh users wishing to utilize the latest and greatest in GPU technology.

Gtx 1080 Mac Os Drivers
I haven’t yet tested a 10-series card on macOS using my Akitio Node Thunderbolt 3 external GPU setup, but I plan on doing so soon (successful reports are appearing on Reddit, but as always, your mileage may vary). Ultimately, my goal is to run a 10-series card in the Hackintosh that I’m currently building.
