Why not continue to use AMG GPU's like they have been doing until now? They need figure if the driver has any issues with the new architecture, but it shouldn't be a problem.
- ksec 6y agoThey could, but I remember reading some WWDC slides that suggest ARM Mac will only be using Apple GPU. Had Apple state Mac Pro would stay on x86 I would not have such concern, but they intend to go all in. Which means Mac Pro will get an ARM chip and an Apple GPU.
- lifty 6y agoWell, I expect them to ship an ARM GPU with every Mac Pro, but in addition to that, also a beefy external GPU. The OS would switch between them based on the workload, live they've done before.
- ksec 6y agoExternal GPU are not supported on ARM Mac. ( At least initially ) as per WWDC slides / documents.
