Radeon Compatibility Guide - ATI/AMD Graphics Cards

[Jess70]

Anyone get an Msi R9 390X to work in Sierra 10.12.6? I have tried basically every suggestion...
Running:
Asus Z97-A motherboard
Card works in my Windows build without any issues. So I know it is not the card
Put latest Lilu and WhateverGreen kext into both the 10.12 and Other folder inside clover
Have checked ATI inject and unchecked it
Have tried motherboard video card but system doesn't show 390x after booting with onboard iGPU so I am unable to "switch" over to the 390x.

Not sure if someone has a step by step guide on how they got their card working?

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks everyone

I'm trying to fix my friend's computer(I don't like sleep feature) and i installed Lilu and Whatevergreen kexts. Kextstat returns fine, they both load and Ati card is recognised correctly. However, no matter which darkwake mode i tried, it restarts after waking up with a kernel panic. It's a Sapphire R9 280. Is there anybody out there with the same card and got positive result? Darkwake 4 and 8 are good with graphic card. They are the last two at the bottom.

I saw this happen on my buddy's hackintosh and he had to disable "deep sleep mode" he said...

Not sure if that helps or not

AMD Radeon Gigabyte RX 64 Vega 8gb! This is the gaming release, reference design. $599 US with NO bundle pack. I was hoping to break 200,000 but not yet!

That's an amazing score for those that use FCP X. The older FirePro D700s (R9 280X) only score a little over 84K on that test.
Almost a 104,000 point increase. Wow.

My RX 480 reference 8gb scores 141,000 I was really hoping Vega would be close to double or 200,000 and some change, it is after all doubling the watts from 150 for the 480 tp 300+ for Vega. Drivers in High Sierra will only get better though so there is still hope.

 

[tab0reqq]

So basicly did they add better / wider range of RX cards as OOB?

I was hoping for some kind of Low-profile AMD :/ R7 250, RX550 LP ?

Tried for R7 260x on sierra--- NOT WORKING

Yes It works.
You have to put lilu.kext and whatevergreen.kext on /EFI/Clover/kexts/Other.
then use 0x665C1002 as FakeID on clover.

R7 260X will be identified as AMD RADEON HD 7790 with correct memory size.
you will have full acceleration !

Although, Opengl performance is kind of poor : only 20 FPS on cinebench when it should be around 50 FPS.
Already tried other Fakeids (6651, 67B0, 665D) and got always the same poor performance.
Any clue on how to improve this ?

Thats one serious wattage increase, from 150 to 300 for the VEGA. am using a 750 watt PSU, and I will not be overclocking anything, but would two(SAPPHIRE Radeon RX VEGA 64 DirectX 12 100410L 8GB) in dual configuration increase performance or be overkill for FCPX?

First - from first review 750W for 2 V64 is like 500W less than should be

Second - there is such thing like overkill in tech?
