Laptop GPUs will be difficult to set up and probably won’t work on the laptop’s built in monitor, because Apple uses custom muxing hardware in their implementations of those devices. Check to make sure the id matches by running lspci -nnk | grep VGA and cross referencing its output by searching for it in this document (ctrl +f.)Įven a matching ID does not guarantee functionality. Just because your GPU has the same Identifier as one of the IDs listed here does NOT necessarily mean it will work out of the box. Reset Bug, Present in late High Sierra Builds Venus LE / Tropo PRO-L Ĭape Verde XT Ĭape Verde PRO Tahiti XT Ĭuracao XT / Trinidad XT Ĭertain cards require a GOP-patched VBIOS for operation Some of these IDs do not match any known AMD device, so if you have a card that matches one with ? in the model field, please contact us: Apple Supported Device IDs Device ID In addition to these conservative recommendations, Community member and MacOS-Simple-KVM Maintainer, Foxlet, Has compiled a list of explicitly supported PCI IDs in the Mac OS graphics drivers. We’ll be working on a patch guide as well, for those that already own a GCN 1.0 card with no UEFI support that still want to use their cards for Mac OS. If you already own one, though, it can’t hurt to look up if your model got a support update. Lower end GCN 1.0 cards in the 7000 and 200 series can work as well, but often weren’t supported well or long enough to get a UEFI Boot bios update. The reason we don’t recommend 300 series cards is, while the apple drivers do support some of them, they seem to have PCIe ID mismatches more often than the older rebrands, so support varies on a model-by-model basis. We’re not giving it a hard recommendation because of the issues with other polaris cards, but it’s definitely worth trying and reporting back to us if you do already own this model. There’s also one possible exception to the “Newer than Hawaii” rule for the reset bug: The Sapphire Radeon RX 580 Pulse (Model SKU 1G) - these cards were shipped with the Apple eGPU dev kits and we’ve had at least a few reports of successful resets with this model. You may want to pass a supported rom or update to the most recent vbios as well to make sure you have a revision that will work, because some cards from this era did not ship with UEFI support. You can check if your card supports UEFI boot on the Tom’s Hardware VBIOS Archives. The D Series was designed specifically for Macs. The models that fit this description are: The Firepro W7000, 8000, 9000, and D300, 500, 700 Cards. XFX Cards can cause kernel panics on some models, the brand should generally be avoided ![]()
