These things sure halted the trust of Apple. The series of issues continued as in 2019, many users complained that after updating Nvidia graphics cards performance has slowed down. So, all these types of stuff forced Apple to review their hardware. As a result in WWDC 2020, they have announced to use their own Apple Silicone hardware which is ARM-based chip. The latest macOS that supported Nvidia was macOS High Sierra.
