nv-uefi-unlocker

physicsdolphin/nv-uefi-unlocker · ★ 1.7K

A pre-boot UEFI tool that lifts the Tensor compute limit on NVIDIA RTX 20, 30 and 40 cards. It boots from a USB stick, unlocks the card, then continues into Windows, Linux or another system, without flashing the VBIOS.

Windows-GPU-UNLOCK

windows-GPU-UNLOCK/Windows-GPU-UNLOCK · ★ 1.8K

Windows GPU UNLOCK is an experimental UEFI-stage tool that releases an NVIDIA RTX GPU from its initial locked PCI/BAR state and hands control straight to Windows without a reset cycle, instead of going through the normal boot/reset flow. It is a port of an earlier RTX3080 unlock project, extended to other RTX cards through community testing.

UniXNU

UniXNU/UniXNU · ★ 2K

UniXNU is an independent project that lets you run iOS and macOS on non-Apple ARM64 hardware by booting through UEFI, rather than Apple's own bootloader.

OpenCorePkg

acidanthera/OpenCorePkg · ★ 15.6K

OpenCorePkg is OpenCore, a UEFI bootloader bundled with a development SDK, best known for booting and patching macOS on non-Apple hardware, while also providing shared UEFI libraries used by other Acidanthera projects.
