macOS Sierra PB: Need testers for new AMD Radeon drivers!

Not open for further replies.
My setup is Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 7 Skylake 6700k with AMD XFX GTR 480.
Everything works fine but final cut does not start. I reinstall it and continue the problem. Could you put your config.plist? Maybe I have something wrong. I am using SMbios Macpro 6.1 but I already use iMac 14.2 and 17.1.
What error it gives in the report?

Check link below for my config.plist and other information how i have my settings. I suspect the last part (disabling intel) may be what's causing your issue. But I do not know enough about this to say for certain.

Got Sapphire RX 480 8g OC using nvidia 8400gs instead of iGPU all works fine the only problem I noticed with FCPX 10.3.1 is it would crush on start if I use HDMI & DP to connect my 2 monitors. If I use DVI & DP then FCPX works but would crush if I try use Optical Flow in slow motion. Can't figure out is it because of GPU or something else. Also with DVI & DP getting 32bit color, with HDMI & DP getting 30bit.
 
UPDATE****Now i test FCX version 10.2.2 and running like a charm! Brucex test 14seconds not bad!

Cinebench

Are you injecting Nvidia or Nvidia web drivers? Maybe try letting it load without support and default display readings.
 
I was able to get Metal support on my HD 630 graphics 30 bit ARGB2010101 color @ 1536mb. This boosts my RX 480 scores with this KABY LAKE i5 7600k 4.2 ghz.

The Graphics on these Kaby Lake chips are very similar to HD 530 graphics and work on the SKL CRB platform.
 
I have two low end old Radeons that will each boot to qe/cl in sierra. A hd4600 and hd5750. 4600 in slot1 and native, rx480 in pcislot2, w/2 separate monitors. I can't get sierra or clover to handoff to rx480. I put fake id 0x67EF1002 in clover w/inject ati and find replace 67EF1002 w/67DF1002 in kext to patch AMDRadeonX4100. I unplugged hd4600 after boot, no go. Don't have a clue how to proceed. Thanks for the help!

Do you have a third open slot available? Somebody switched to the third slot and it worked. The RX wants to be on a 16 lane, or 4 lane pcie slot. The second one in that situation was 8 pcie lanes and the card wouldn't work so when they switched it worked.
