How to determine if enabling Quartz 2D Extreme will work on my Mac?
)
June 19th, 2008
Okay, so I saw that (annoying) Chris Pirillo video where he talks about disabling Beamsync and enabling Quartz 2D Extreme to see significant performance improvement.
From what I picked up, sounds like the Quartz bit is only useful for certain video cards… but I don’t know which. I’ve got the old “sunflower” style iMac G4 800 MHz and its running 10.5.3.
The specific commands I found here (be sure to scroll way down to find the correct syntax including “boolean”).
Of course, I’m worried the thing won’t boot (or the video will be blank) if I try this in the blind. Yes, I will have a bootable clone ready when the time comes.
