![]() ![]() Of course, in actual practice, it will be cheaper (and produce higher performance) to just buy a generic NVMe drive on a PCIe carrier board and use that instead of (or in addition to) Apple’s SSD if you need an upgrade. ![]() Ok Today I tested the version 2.4.3i of the GFXCARDSTATUS and it does seem to work with the 2016 15' rMBP I have a question can it and will it not cause any harm to the machine by forcing to use a particular graphic card. Will this Configurator option work (or later be upgraded to work) with other Macs that have removable flash and a T2 chip (currently, this is only the iMac Pro)? Parallels wont switch to dedicated if I force iGPU only. ![]() Will it be possible to transplant Apple’s flash modules to another computer? You won’t be able to read any data from them, but if you can use Configurator to change the pairing (making any pre-existing data forever unrecoverable), that should be fine for almost everybody. I was able to install gfxCardStatus initially and if the machine boots using the integrated card and logs into the user account this application runs immediately and switches the card. When the discrete graphics is running, the icon is a d. In the screenshot below, it’s the second app in from the left. When the integrated graphics is running, the icon is a little i. Will it be possible to use aftermarket flash modules? As far as I can tell, Apple’s modules are just flash chips attached to a standard bus interface, so there may no longer be a technical reason why anyone else can’t make a compatible module. To get started, download gfxCardStatus, drag the app to your Applications folder, and run it. Now that we know Apple’s Configurator tool is capable of pairing flash modules with a T2 chip (at least in a Mac Pro), it now begs a few other questions that I hope companies like iFixit and OWC can answer: Now i have found a remedy for this problem is to install the gfxcardstatus, mine is version 1.8.1, and for Sierra you need another version, this software forces your mac to use the integrated intel graphic card and not the Nvidia which causes the panic, so when the software is installed you have to select intel graphic card only in preferences.
