They don't work at all, there are no discrete GPU drivers for ARM macOS.

> The cooling solution and 1250W(!) power supply they carried over from the 2019 model are kind of hilariously overkill now

I wonder if that's a small hint or giveaway of something coming in the future that will make use of it.... One can hope.

If they were going to make a dGPU or other big accelerator in the future then I think they would have maintained support for the MPX form factor cards. The new Mac Pro doesn't support those.
