>literally have to pay $20 for an app to go above the 60hz refresh rate if you monitor supports higher than 60hz refresh
Why did Apple do this? Is it just me or is Apple is literally the Tesla of computers.
Holy fuck, Id love to see a macfag defend this.
>>58854179
Prove what? He's lying/uninformed
>>58854206
How am I lying? Try to get above 60hz on your Mac without using a $20 program. Go ahead, I'll wait.
>>58854024
can you tell us what the program is
can you tell us if it is a monitor "overclocking" software for limited 60hz monitors
can you tell us that you need this program to go above 60hz on a monitor that natively supports higher
>>58854244
doesn't xrandr work on mac?
>>58854332
Used to be plenty of programs that works on Mac.
-respro
-RDM
However none of these programs work on OS X after El Capitan, the only program that works on OS X after El Capitan is SwitchresX, and not without having you bypass CIP.
>>58854306
The monitor is native 75Hz.
>>58854398
It's called MacOS
This has got to be the dumbest shit I've read in about 2 weeks.
Do you know anything about display outputs you stupid fuck? This is the average intelligence of the anti-Apple sperg.
>>58854024
>>58854244
This has to be bull, I have a Mac hooked up to a CRT at 85hz, can go up to 100hz if you knock down the resolution.
I can confirm this. I can't get the thing to go higher than 60 hz on my new 120 hz monitor.
>>58854024
>Why did Apple
Have you heard of this thing called "money?" All the kids seem to be talking about it these days. Maybe look into it.
Apple has one purpose and one purpose only in the economic ecosystem of today's world:
1) identify imbeciles
2) separate them from their money
I realize that might be a bit complex for you to parse out, but dedicate yourself to the task and you may yet succeed.
>>58854024
Nice bait faggot
>>58854024
No you don't
/thread
OP is a lying scumbag.
You need to buy a Cinema Display or Mac/Thunderbolt compatible monitor to get higher refresh rates.

Only $29 you fucking moron.
Windows can't even do above 60hz PERIOD. Funny how all of these poorfags come out of the woodwork to bash something they cannot afford.

put more effort next time, OP
OP here still waiting on someone to post a pic of their monitor running 75hz and above on native. Something every other operating system in the world can easily do...
>>58854607
I don't have switchresX installed, how am I supposed to prove that? Like this?
>>58854611
Go look on the internet you dense fuck. How many people active on /g/ right now do you think have a MBP connected to an external display handy at this moment? Are you this retarded?
>>58854635
Better go out and buy the $20 program then.
>>58854582
>>58854607
>>58854635
>>58854678
Here's 120Hz (smooth as fuck, brah)
total cost = $0
feels good to be using the world's most advanced desktop OS
>>58854635
OP is talking about refresh rates. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're still trying to show off resolution.
I don't know what switchresX is and when I search it, it said it was mainly a resolution changing program.
If it does refresh rate then fuck me, but if not, fuck you
>>58854693
The world's most advanced OS
>>58854611
>>58854693
This monitor still needs some work but 120hz just works with no fancy software
>>58854726
Yeah i read OP as higher than 30Hz, I posted this though (>>58854693) which shows it going higher than 60Hz if you have an HDMI 2.0 cord
>>58854693
>>58854759
>both scaled
OP here, still waiting... come on guys even Windows 7 can easily do this...
>>58854024
What are you talking about? I have a 144hz monitor that I use my Mac on and it works just fine
>>58854793
That's because I have a 4k display.
1080p at 120Hz
4k at 60Hz
You retarded, m8?
>>58854793
Even Windows 2000 can do this.
>>58854820
Post a picture.
So many macfags lying to defend their shit today...

Fine I'll take the bait, default is 85hz and monitor OSD also reports 85hz. Does look smoother than 60hz
>literally have to pay $20 for an app
paying more than .99 for any software outside of adobe and autocad's line is fundamentally retarded
weak bait thread

Probably for the best. Could you imagine the dongles?

paying any amount of money for software that you could've just pirated is fundamentally retarded

okay... Well you got me there, but you're sacrificing too much to maintain this refresh rate OMHO.

Hackintosh is very easy to install with multibeast

The only hard part is actually having a running mac to get install media. Even then you can always run it in a VM or download the media from somewhere else.
>>58855328
If specced like a proper Mac with a well supported motherboard and video card, it runs just as good without any odd bugs. hell even if it is under specced like an i3 with only 4gb of ram it still runs pretty well
>>58855381
>The only hard part is actually having a running mac to get install media.
And it's not even that hard. Make a mac VM, download the OS from the App Store and make a bootable USB. 3 hours tops.
>>58854955
please abort yourself retroactively
>>58855439
That is the point though, it is literally the hardest part, after that it installs almost like anything else.
Install Mac -> Install Clover -> Install drivers (MultiBeast/Nvidia Web Drivers) -> Done.
Takes about maybe an hour if you don't have any oddball hardware quirks
>>58854398
You're dumb for using Sierra. It is garbage. Incompatible, super buggy and completely devoid of any useful additions
>>58854024
There's a difference between a program existing that charges you $20 for its functionality and actually needing that program. I remember setting everything up for my 120Hz monitor to make sure I could use it (and this was free) but miniDVI can't do FullHD at 120Hz so I never actually got to use it.

Universal clipboard (iOS <-> macOS)
Tabs and Picture-in-picture in AppKit are great.
iCloud sync for Documents and Desktop folders
Auto unlock (Apple Watch)
I don't miss Apple stuff or having to buy switchresx to get it to output to my non-EDID television.
It's the spiritual successor to the Amiga, which means you have to pay a fortune to opportunistic shareware devs to make up for its shortcomings.
