Running RTX CARDS ON MAC OSX

Wondering if anyone is running any RTX cards under Mac OSX

I am running a MacBook Pro with High Sierra 10.13.5 which seems to be a sweet spot for Mac OSX
I can run two GTX 1080s in a Atiko Duo Pro Box and its pretty solid

I have two RTX 1060's that I'd like to run but figure I'd need Nvidia 4.0 drivers... (not the latest one that is causing all the issues but the 417.71 vers or something close to it.)

Anyone know of an updated egpu script you use that can locate the driver you want and instal it etc?

Thanks All Mac die hards

Probably your best resource for this kind of up to date info is good old egpu.io

No RTX and I wouldn't hold my breath... You'd be better off building a basic PC and creating a network slave if you want to stay on a Mac. I'm running 4x 980Ti's off an i5 PC build.

Thanks I'll check out the site.
I agree PCs are a lot easier... my mac with the eGPU on 1080 is a work horse though and runs for weeks without restart or crashing so if I can get the RTX running might be worth the effort

Appreciate the input

Peter

See my signature, I agree, but i'm getting tired of this BS.
