Im trying X in ss22 and R21 - plugin loads and live viewer opens but I get this "No GPU selected" does that mean my system isn't compatible?

this is on a 2017 MBP i7 w/ Radeon 560 and Intel HD Graphics 630

Any Radeon 5xx is too old, sorry. Vega or Navi is minimum.

Thanks so much for providing the Mac community with octane x.
I’m really excited to start using it. One thing I’m not so sure about. Can I run Octane X on a Radeon VII through an eGPU connected to a MacBook Pro?

We are planning to broaden GPU support with final release of macOS 11, but not sure if this will get us pre Vega AMD cards. It’s really about whether the drivers we need are supported at the same level as the ones that we currently have on MacOS 10.15.6.
