Geforce Kepler Patcher Ventura -
Chipset Model: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 Metal: Supported (Metal 3 – or Metal 2) The GeForce Kepler Patcher is a viable temporary solution for users trapped on legacy hardware.

For a production machine running Ventura, the recommended action is replacing the NVIDIA GPU with an AMD Radeon RX 500/5000/6000 series, which offers native support.
Works for basic UI and lightweight rendering, but not recommended for video editing, 3D rendering, or mission-critical work. geforce kepler patcher ventura
