But, it is absolutely overly user-hostile to not allow Nvidia to release the drivers not just for future eGPU use, but for the non-zero percent of those users who are keeping the old Mac Pro alive.Īs AppleInsider separately noted, the only two Nvidia cards that continue to work with Mojave are the older GeForce GTX 680 and the Quadro K5000 models. Yes, a good portion of those users are fine with AMD cards. There is no reason beyond marketing and user-funneling to prohibit use of the cards on a software level. Some tasks perform better on AMD and some on Nvidia, it is a fact of silicon. They work fine in Windows, so it’s not a technical limitation. This decision makes absolutely no sense with eGPUs now being explicitly supported in macOS.

As a result, demanding customers who need Nvidia are now forced to downgrade to macOS High Sierra, which sounds especially stupid given Mojave’s rich support for external GPUs, or eGPUs.

Unfortunately, that’s no longer the case with the latest macOS Mojave software. Nvidia’s GeForce GPU in a MacBook Pro from 2008
