Hello, I am very new to Mac modding and such, I only really got into this heap because my GF has an old iMac 2011 27" (12,2) and wants to start using it for some light work (Photoshop, Video Marketing, etc.) and late night movies again. I already upgraded the RAM from 4 > 16GB and nabbed an i7-2600, looking into an SSD and the GTX 1070 soon.
The problem begins with the program she wishes to use, she wishes mainly to use the Canva Pro App on her Mac but the latest version requires Big Sur or newer, I know I can use OpenCoreLegacyPatcher to install Big Sur or newer on the iMac however I am unsure how the 1070 I plan to add will fare as Nvidia hasn't made any MacOS drivers since High Sierra (current OS) but High Sierra is too old for many things, I cant even install latest version of Chrome or Firefox on it as is.
What are some things I should checkout/do prior to attempting to install a new OS on the iMac? What are some things I should expect? And how should I go about the 1070 and MacOS?
Anything and everything is appreciated,
Cheers! 🍻
