Does SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon™ R9 380X 4G D5 work on El Capitan 10.11.4?

[Marcin81]

Hello
I would like to know if the card SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon™ R9 380X 4G D5
is supported (natively) system 10.11.4 El Capitan?
I choose radeon since NVIDIA does not have drivers and they work much slower than in window?

I am seeking a card that will be efficient in hackintosh. Equally efficient at the windows and at least comparatively.
I care also economical power consumption when the card is not charged.

nVidia DOES have drivers available for OSX, which get updated regularly and enable a lot of cards to work well.

See here.

Some radeon cards work, a lot don't. And there is no additional driver package. Read this thread to see the current issues which affect most modern Radeon cards.

Also, please don't post the same thread twice. Put details of all the cards you are interested in, in a single thread. This makes it easier for others to help.

Thank you, I will remember.

Look there for the 5 minute:

What is true of Yosemite, but is actually the performance differences are so big?
Or the user to set the film did not have the appropriate drivers?

It's not worth it to buy a card that uses the os x only half of its potential.

2. Does SAPPHIRE Radeon ™ Vapor-X R7 370 4G D5 OC work on El Capitan 10.11.4?

Row in table with R7 370 has value NO into OOB field.
Does this mean that the card will work or not known since no one handed os x version 10.11.4?

 

[Marcin81]

For example, a seemingly new R7 370 card uses the same, 3 year old GCN 1.0 based "Pitcairn" chip as a HD 7870

The statements can be inferred that the card will work.
I'm looking for something in the budget similar to price nvidia 960, Radeon R9 380.
Please about proposals and substantiation for the performance.

 

[WonkeyDonkey]

As stated in the thread I linked, there are currently issues with the recent generation of Radeon cards. Buy at your own risk. Do not infer anything.

A 960 will be a much safer bet.

The video that you have posted was published on 28th Oct. 2014. Yosemite was released to the public twelve days prior to that on October 16th 2014. Never expect to get the best performance until the drivers have been able to mature for at least a couple of months - Windows drivers typically take months to properly mature.

If you were running windows only then a Radeon card would be a very strong proposition. if you need to have reliable El Capitan support then the advice today is to run with nVidia at all price points as there is good driver support.

Thank you for your help and kind attention. Really useful.

R7 370 should work when spoofing the device ID to R7 270X/HD 7870. It'll still suffer from sleep issues though.

The best bet in this performance range (in terms of compatibility / OOB) is a Kepler card. Only drawback is that you won't get them new.
