Well, if you ask me... the reason things really optimised for the OS/hardware fly is because they can control every in and out of the system. Same for stability, security, etc.RdNa3 is supposed to deliver even more impressive performance uplifts than RDNA2 is to the prior generation, and rdna2 is FAST. so I don’t know if or when Apple will ever catch up.
It would be so much easier to just allow mac users to use their graphics card of choice: Apple, nvidia, AMD, and of course both Intel integrated as well discrete DG2. Apple offers thunderbolt ports, and per spec, thunderbolt includes PCIe tunneling, so as long as there’s a macOS driver for a pcie device, it should work via thunderbolt.
But Apple persists in locking macOS down.
I don't believe there is an "easy" solution to this, and you know where Nvidia stands regarding all this, they have their own agenda and are pushing CUDA everywhere they can... we know which path Apple has taken, and honestly I cannot blame them. Seeing how Nvidia is acting in the creative space...
