Now this card for sale has OC in its name and the one recommended by Apple does not so I'm obviously looking for success stories with this card. So I'm thinking about either returning or selling this GPU to a PC user and buying a Sapphire RX 580 8GB Pulse OC card. If I disconnect the cable and plug it back or if I put the Mac to sleep with a key combination, then I wake it up, then I can get the display back, but otherwise I'm staring at a black screen.Īll in all, this is not very ideal cause I'd like my massive 27" display turned off automatically when I'm AFK. The first issue is not a big deal, I can get to recovery mode blindly and I can basically do anything (PRAM reset and stuff) but not being able to wake the display from sleep -atleast not easily- is super annoying. No bootloader screen (Apple site says this shouldn't be a problem but it seems my GPU differs from the reference card) It does boot, I've successfully upgraded to Mojave but there are two very annoying issues: So based on this I've purchased an MSI Radeon RX 560 Aero ITX 4G OC GPU. To overcome this I did some google search and stumbled upon a recommended list of cards from Apple (I'm confident you're all familiar with this information).
I have a Mac Pro (Mid 2012) machine originally with Radeon 5770 (I suppose) which does not support Metal API. In the same vein, in the long term support for any Intel Macs will be downgraded by the launch of ARM processors (M1 etc) I have several PowerPC Macs in the store room that are ‘only’ about 20 years old yet dead in the water for any current apps.I'm looking for some advice and/or confirmation regarding GPU upgrade in a Mac Pro 5,1. We have to face the fact that taking a MacPro 5,1 into 2021 and beyond is dependent on Apple turning a blind eye to the Hackintosh community and allowing these hacks to work. To make sure the results accurately reflect the average performance of each GPU, the chart only includes GPUs with at least five unique results in the Geekbench Browser. The data on this chart is calculated from Geekbench 6 results users have uploaded to the Geekbench Browser. OpenCore gives a boot loader screen during power up (even on non EFI GPUs) that make this easy. Welcome to the Geekbench Metal Benchmark Chart. I have also got Catalina running apparently fine via OpenCore on my MacPro 5,1.įor those not aware, MacOS is now 64bit only so users of older 32 bit apps (AND plug-ins) will need to dual boot with an older OS like Mojave. MacPro 5.1GPUMetalMac Pro Early 20 CPUXeon 2×3.46GHz 6-Core&n. Somehow this fools Apple to allow Catalina/BigSur to be loaded. To be strict, it is the boot disk that gets modded, not the actual Mac and OS itself. A MacPro 5,1 will only run Catalina and BigSur if modded with OpenCore or similar.
