is there way to use AMD FIREPRO W2100 for 4k display?

[paulkol]

I have AMD FIREPRO W2100 and 4K display which is connected DP 1.2 I would need to know if there is a way to use this card. The card is completely without drivers (kexts) now, because I have no idea which ones I can use or if there are any.Thank You very much.

Have you tried installing it into the machine yet?

If it could work you'd need to use the AMD Firepro kexts included in OS X already or if Apple would
possibly add support once the Mac Pro is refreshed. No estimated TOA on that. Just try it out and
see what happens.

@Solidww - Ye, it is installed, but I can't use it, because its giving me 1024x768 only without drivers and it's horribly lagging. So it is off (but installed) and I'm using intel 4000 onboard video which gives me 1080p

@trs96 can You please help me with those kexts? How do I find them and use them? Thank You very much.

Your already using the kexts with your OS X install. Now, the question is are you using GraphicsEnabler=no or yes?????

I found on youtube I ave to change it in EXTRA folder the graphics to = yes, but I dont have that folder or I cant find it. I tried use multibeast and everytime I do use it I cant start anymore.
So I dont know if it is yes or no. will try to find out. thanks.

so if I use the file in /Extra folder which contains this https://www.dropbox.com/s/y98c6a4x2k006nb/2014-12-03 21.59.13.jpg?dl=0 all I get is this error:https://www.dropbox.com/s/cqjhwklpsnzjv0j/2014-12-03 21.55.40.jpg?dl=0
Without that file everything works with onboard graphics, but 1080p only on 2 monitors. How d I enable that graphics if I have that error? Thank You.

I figured out GraphicsEnabler=no or yes and it does not work either way. I dont know how to install any kext...

Boot flags are case sensitive and if you get them wrong they have no effect.

GraphicsEnabler=no or yes is wrong - It should be :

GraphicsEnabler=No or Yes


Good Luck
