So where does that leave us? Explicitly Supported Cards Narrowing things down Further, we know that cards too old to support UEFI Boot won’t work either, except for the special UGA variants pulled from or made for old mac pros, but those end support in 10.14 Mojave, so they aren’t worth talking about. Apple Drivers support the RX 400 and 500 series as well as Vega/Fury Cards, but it isn’t advisable to pick one up unless you never plan on rebooting your VM. All newer cards, including Vega and the 5700 are affected, and won’t reset properly in a VM.

Nvidia is essentially out of the question at this point, assuming you want to use a new release of their operating system, and new AMD cards don’t work well with UEFI Passthrough. One of the most common questions we get is: “what gpu should I use for a Mac OS VM,” and it’s frankly a hard one to answer.
