I could use the internal display just fine on Windows side.
Lots of people have working setups but I chose to just install the card on the Windows side and leave MacOS alone. the imac 'core i5' 2.7 21.5-inch aluminum (late 2013/haswell) features a 22 nm 'haswell/crystalwell' quad core 2. On the software side, running an nVidia card in MacOS is more problematic than running it in Windows bootcamp. I am running a Mantiz Venus with a 1080ti that is on the larger side size-wise, no issues. macOS Ventura, the next major iteration to the software powering the Mac platform, was unveiled at Apple’s 2022 Worldwide Developers. The RAM in the 27-Inch models is designed to be upgraded easily, but even upgrading the RAM is an arduous process for the 21.5-Inch models in the 'Late 2012,' 'Early 2013,' 'Late 2013,' 'Mid-2017' and '2019' lines and it is impossible to upgrade the RAM in the 21.5-Inch 'Mid-2014' and 'Late 2015' iMac models entirely. They all use the same internals for the most part, so you're not going to get better performance from one enclosure to the next really.Īs for GPU, different enclosures will have different size limitations but most of the popular enclosures will fit all the way up to a 1080ti or Vega 56. Read the official macOS Ventura system requirements to confirm that your current Mac has the required hardware to run this macOS 13 update when it drops in the fall. It's just a matter of picking one that fits your desired features, aesthetic, and budget. So any tb3 enclosure on the market right now should work for you. Hey man, in my experience just about any tb3 enclosure is backwards compatible with tb2, with some performance loss.
