Mobile rx560 with high sierra

[sidodji]

Hi.

I bought laptop with i5-7300hq and radeon rx560 (mobile version). This mobile version is almost similar to desktop rx460, but has 0x100267ef id. Tried many things to make it work. But as result it is shown in system report window, but laptop still boots from intel hd graphics 630. And one more interesting thing. My rx560 is recognized as pro 555 graphics. Maybe they don't have many differences, but main difference is that mine has 4gb of vram.

Thanks for help.

i have moved your post to laptop support

you may want to read up about dual video cards on the FAQ:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.164990/

as it may not be supported and only your Intel will work

As per rules, please update your hardware profile to allow others to help you easier (read the faq above about proper hardware profile setup)

Thanks for your reply! I checked everything and there was nothing that helped me. The main problem is that I haven't seen anyone trying to install hackintosh on laptop with Radeon. I hope it will work because rx560 can have something in common with pro 555/560 which are used in the newest macbooks. And that it is recognized can be something like progress I think.

I think you need to read feartech's reply again.

Also, if you expect much more than guesses, you need to attach problem reporting files...

No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.164990/
Use the gen_debug.sh tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.

Hi. Thanks for reply! I've updated hardware profile. Also attached problem reporting files. It should be all that is needed.

Sorry. I've noticed that problem reporting files can be created with the help of script too late... Here it is.

I've seen that in macbooks with dual-GPU there is a menu in 'energy saver' settings. Maybe I can somehow reach it? Now it don't appear. And one more thing. When I connect external monitor to the laptop image is shown only on external monitor but in display settings tell us that two monitors are connected. I can't simply mirror image on two monitors. Maybe it is connected with discrete graphics? But even with external monitor in 'about this mac' in graphics section intel hd630 is shown.

As per FAQ dual GPU in switched/routed configuration is not supported.
The only thing you can do is disable it for power savings.
Details are in the FAQ.
