Hey Guys, I got a nice deal on a RX 570 Pulse 4GB.
I've done some reading around here and have a few questions if you can help me decide if I should keep the order or not, I would be grateful, thanks!
I've seen a fix for the 580 Pulse to be recognized as an eGPU to help with Final Cut, is this fix required for the 570 Pulse or is it plug and play? I currently have a GTX 1060 6GB and pretty happy with it. However, I seem to have glitches and sometimes freezes on Sierra.
I prepared a High Sierra install to compare it, feels almost twice as responsive, metal powered apps seem to work real nice, but I heard the drivers for Nvidia are still not that great on HSierra, should I still expect freezes and glitches? Do Nvidia cards truly work better with adobe software with the Nvidia web drivers? I've done some comparisons with metal setting vs CUDA, and they seem to render about the same in adobe media encoder(maybe it's not a good test)...
Noticed that sometimes I keep finding reports here and on ****** about the RX 570 freezing or glitching, is that to be expected?
Because I have those issues already and I'm very concerned about going forward with the RX 570 as the GTX 1060 is much more powerful on Windows use.
Final question, would I be able to use the RX 570 Pulse with a third party eGPU enclosure for my 2014 Mac Mini? I can do my projects nicely on Mac Mini but it can't power a UHD display at 60Hz, and I need Metal acceleration for sketch app.
I've read that the new beta of Mojave might remove support for off the shelf graphics cards, but I'm not totally sure I understood what I read, sorry if I misunderstood.
