Apple’s new M1 Pro and M1 Max processors

You could use the new AMD cards at least though right? I don't think Nvidia support will ever happen again though (I got burned by that, bought a 1060 right before they dropped Nvidia).

I'm on a RX 5700XT with my Hackintosh, and it works well.

Edit: Thinking about this more.. I bet third party GPUs are a dead end for users and Apple is planning to phase them out.

I think I'd wait to see what the Mac Pro supports before coming to that conclusion. Could be something they're still working on for that product, and then when it's working on the Apple Silicon build of macOS will be made available on laptops as well.

I guarantee you this is them finally ripping the Band-Aid of having to support _any_ outside hardware

Oh that's cool, last I checked the best AMD card you can use is a Vega 64.
