I'm currently running four displays with a ATI Radeon HD 5770 1 GB card + a NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT 256 MB, neither of which supports Metal as far as I can tell. What's the current state of graphic cards with Metal support?Īs far as I've understood, the limitations posted by Apple of not supporting models before 2012 are due to their own configurations of Mac Pro never shipping with a compatible graphics card, so it's not due to the HW of the Mac Pro itself, or any artificial limitations on the software side. Under Graphics/Displays, if "Supported" is listed next to the Metal entry, the graphics card will work with macOS Mojave.Īccording to Apple, once a Metal-capable graphics card has been installed in a 2010 or 2012 Mac Pro, macOS Mojave can be downloaded and installed after turning off FileVault.I have a Mid 2010 Mac Pro (MacPro5,1), running High Sierra, that is in need of Metal support for graphics development purposes (not gaming). When I restarted, the system said my card was a Radeon HD 5000, not 5770. You can check to see if your graphics card is compatible by holding down option while selecting Apple logo to access System Information. Just installed AMD Radeon 5770 graphics card (Apple says this isnt supported users I read said it works despite what Apple says in knowledge article ( ). MSI Gaming Radeon RX 560 128-bit 4GB GDDR5Īpple also lists other AMD graphics cards that "might" be compatible with macOS Mojave:.The maximum power draw of this model is 108 Watt. The GPU has PCI Express 2.1 interface, and requires 2 motherboard slots.
This allows the card to have 76.8 GB/s memory bandwidth.
The memory utilizes 128 bit bus, and operates at 1.2 GHz. Apple's new macOS Mojave update is not compatible with mid-2010 and mid-2012 Mac Pros with stock GPUs, but it is supported on 20 Mac Pro models that have been upgraded with graphics cards that support Metal.Īpple today shared a new support document that provides a list of graphics cards that are Metal-capable, which will be useful for 20 Mac Pro owners who want to purchase a new graphics card to upgrade to macOS Mojave.Īccording to Apple, the following graphics cards are known to be Metal-capable and compatible with macOS Mojave on the mid-2010 and mid-2012 Mac Pro models: The Radeon HD 5770 comes with 1 GB of GDDR5 memory.
