There's no earthly reason it won't run on most modern AMD cards. It's not like Octane only runs on one powerful Nvidia GPU.

Jules wrote on Facebook that the Radeon VII it was working really nicely as well, I think the vega2duo its super expensive, personally I am waiting for the Big Navy with 24gb and 5300 gpu cores, this will release December as latest.

4 DAYS.

If you think about it. You can get 3 5700xt's for the price of 1 2080ti. Jules stated long ago that scaling was nearly linear. I think we are going to be in pretty good shape. Now, I guess this is for Mac Pro or Hackintosh users

That's the joy of the Mac Pro – its ability to run four fairly decent GPUs. Hopefully not too noisily.

Indeed, this thread is not the place for denigrating macs or OSX.

Yeah put 3 graphic cards would be so awesome, but I guess would be quite noisy right? I think putting 2 radeon vII would be awesome as well..
I think I will wait for the big navi as it is coming in few months as well, and have 2 of this cards can be mind blowing hopefully for a reasonable price.

Yes the Radeon VII, I think are the best ones for the price for the moment. which are the new ones?
I know apple released new xt5700 with 16gb, but I think are way too expensive.
