Overview

NullMoth NVIDIA Driver is an experimental driver for NVIDIA Turing-and-later GPUs on Intel Macs running macOS 15 Sequoia with OpenCore. It provides Metal interfaces through a translator and Mesa's NVK Vulkan backend, alongside kernel extensions based on NVIDIA's open GPU kernel modules. The project also lists OpenGL, OpenCL, Core Image and Core ML support. Install using the prebuilt package or the 1401 Mac app, and check the documented validation and card support before choosing a setup.

Key features

  • Provides Metal 3 interfaces, including ray tracing and mesh shaders.
  • Lists support for OpenGL, OpenCL, Core Image and Core ML.
  • Offers installation through a prebuilt package or the 1401 Mac app.
  • Documents tested systems, card support and troubleshooting.

Best for

Intel Mac and OpenCore users with a supported NVIDIA Turing-or-later GPU who want to try graphics and compute interfaces on macOS 15. Check the qualification scope first; listed card coverage does not guarantee that a specific setup works.
