Hi,
anybody has a running setup with blender on a Macbook (16" 2020) + Razor Core X in Big Sur?
I tried my best over days. Can't figure out how to get the eGPU workin in choosable in the preferences.
Just can render on CPU.

Hi,
firstly, to check that everything is working correctly, please download and install Standalone OctaneX from App Store.

Then open Standalone, right click anywhere in the node graph panel, and choose Materials/Metallic, to create the material node.
Now right click on the node and choose Render.
If you see the Material Ball scene rendering, everything is working correctly.

I'm not a Blender user, but you should need to go to preferences/add-ons, and check that OctaneX is selected as render engine.
Then go to the Scene attributes, and change the render engine to OctaneX.

ciao Beppe
