Nvidia Graphics Driver Update for OS X 10.10.4
(Update: On July 28th they released a later driver version. See video topics page)
Nvidia download page for Graphics driver 346.01.03f01 for OS X 10.10.4 build 14E46. Here's a clip from the main D/L page tab (other than version info typical boilerplate).
"New in Release 346.01.03f01
Graphics driver updated for Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.4 (14E46)
Contains performance improvements and bug fixes for a wide range of applications.
Includes NVIDIA Driver Manager preference pane."
See linked page/tabs for more info. As of post time (9AM 7/2), the page refers to CUDA 7.0.52 in the text but the link routes to CUDA 7.0.36 from April 9th. (See below for link CUDA 7.0.52 release.)
I've not seen updates at Nvidia's site for OS X 10.9.5 and 10.8.5 builds with security update 2015-005 but will post them on the video topics page when I do. (I'm not using an nvidia card currently to check using the nvidia prefs panel.)

Nvidia CUDA 7.0.52 Update for OS X (Yosemite and Mavericks)
Nvidia posted a download page for CUDA 7.0.52 for OS X 10.10.x and 10.9.x. As before, it has this note on older GPU support:
"This driver does not support older generation GPUs with SM1.x."
Earlier versions with that note also referred to CUDA 6.5.45 for SM1.x support but that older CUDA version may not support the latest graphics drivers. |
