Obviously it is a Developer Beta, so theres still some work left to go through before they are on par or faster.

Dont suppose anyone managed to get a MacPro3,1 working with a Kepler-based GTX460.

I heard some people having issues with the trackpad not being recognised correctly but mine works perfectly fine.

Sierra Book Pro 2011 Install High Sierra

I used NewCore 0.1 to install High Sierra and then had to install the LegacyUSBInjector.kext with a patched Sierra restore Disk as USB wasnt working on first boot.

In the directory VolumesHDLibraryLogsDiagnosticReports there are several files that look like: WindowServer2017-06-xxx.crash.

I just installed High Sierra on my 2.4GHz Late 2008 MacBook (5,1) and had no issues thus far.

The MacBook Pro 17 4,1 2008 also lost its trackpad support with HS DP1.

Interesting. Its the MacBook 2009 5,2 that has the issue with the trackpad (and brightness control) persisting from Sierra.

The MacBook Pro 17 4,2 2008 also lost its trackpad support with HS DP1.

Installed it onto my MacBook 5,1 (8GB DDR3 1333MHz 128GB SSD) Everyting works as it did in Sierra apart from not having any Trackpad Options.

No settings to make Tap to click to work or any of the multi finger gestures.

Was very straight forwarded to create a bootable USB using the Tool.

HFS. There is still no advancements in regard to make a clean install with APFS on unsupported macs yet, at least one that boots properlly.

The first part (on an unsupported Mac) is done by newCore which is slower than the native Apple method that exists on the firmware of all updated Macs (and its slower because it essentially does all the firmware modifications on every boot, rather than baking it into firmware).

The EFI extensions, however, are from Apple, (and fully compatible with unsupported Macs) so kernel loading is similar speed once the disk is found.

Since theres no technical contest between both newCore and Apple, the second part of the video only concerns the difference after the kernel has started.

The second factor is up to macOS itself, modifications arent involved.
