Hi,

I'm looking to purchase an AMD graphics card for my razor core x eGPU plugged into my MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) running Cinema 4d and octane.
Any advice for the most suitable/ powerful cards would be really helpful, its a bit overwhelming with the amount of choice and I feel some cards they list are quite old.

The razor website states
MAC OS COMPATIBLE GRAPHICS CHIPSETS
Radeon ™ RX 5000 Series
Radeon ™ RX Vega Series
Radeon ™ RX 500 Series
Radeon ™ R9 Series
Radeon ™ Pro Series

MacOS Compatible Graphics Chipsets
Below is the list of compatible GPUs officially tested and supported by the Razer Core X

AMD Radeon™ RX 580
AMD Radeon™ RX 580
AMD Radeon™ RX 570
AMD Radeon™ Pro WX 7100
AMD Radeon™ RX Vega 56
AMD Radeon™ RX Vega 64
AMD Vega Frontier Edition Air
AMD Radeon™ Pro WX 9100
AMD Radeon™ RX 470
AMD Radeon™ RX 480

Thanks!

2019 MacBook Pro (with Big Sur 11.4 Beta) + Razer Core X Chroma + Red Devil 6900 XT = SUCCESS!!!

Just set this up last night and rendering like a beast, plus I can multitask with no lag at all.

Since the Red Devil has 3x 8 pin cables and Razer Core X has only 2, I bought a splitter [8 Pin Female to Dual 2X 8 Pin (6+2) Male], and plugged it in, and it works like a charm.
