Hello,
I'm super keen to hook into Octane, but I do use an iMac.
Could someone please link or let me know how Octane 2020 works with Mac's? I've looked around, and all I can find is older posts saying ti will, but am yet to find one with clear specs/requirements now it's released.
I'm running a 2019 iMac (40gb memory and Radeon Pro 580x 8GB graphics)
I would test myself before subscribing, but the plugin I need is for C4D, and that's not in the listed supported trial plugins for it.
Thank you in advance for your help all.
Octane 2020 & IMacs - after some clarity please

Octane 2020.1 currently works on Macs that can run NVIDIA drivers, which means up through OS 10.13, High Sierra, but no later. Octane X for AMD based Macs is currently in closed Beta testing, and final specifications have not been published. You can get some idea, though, based on the beta testing hardware requirements:

You can follow the thread here:Your Mac must have an integrated Intel or AMD GPU (or external AMD e-GPU) supported by the current Octane X build. If you have a 2019 or later iMacPro, Mac Pro, MacBook Pro - or a Radeon VII eGPU - you are covered.
Otherwise, please look up what architecture your GPU has and make sure it is on this list below before proceeding with the sign up form:
Intel Graphics SkyLake: INTEL_SKL_GT2_7, INTEL_SKL_GT3_10
Intel Graphics KabyLake: INTEL_KBL_GT2_2, INTEL_KBL_GT3_6, INTEL_KBL_GT3_1
AMD Vega: AMD_GFX9_VEGA10_P, AMD_GFX9_VEGA12_P, AMD_GFX9_VEGA20_P
AMD Navi: AMD_GFX10_NAVI14_M
