( Since these are retail cards (not flashed with mac rom), there's no boot screen until the OS/driver loads. For instance if booting with Option key to select startup disc. (You could select a different Startup Disk in macOS, but IIRC only 10.12.6 and later have native driver support for RX 580.) It's good to have a second card like an OEM Mac Nvidia GT120 that uses no Aux power.
(Also some macOS upgrade/installers (like High Sierra) required an OEM Mac graphics card installed, so keep your original Mac card on hand.) The Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 580 is also one of the recommended models for use as an eGPU with macOS 10.13.4 (or later). S3 virge driver for mac. See Apple's article on that lists supported Thunderbolt 3 chassis & graphics cards.) On Sept.
24th, Apple released MacOS Mojave and posted a new support article, that mentions having macOS 10.13.6 installed first, (without FileVault enabled) and a list of compatible graphics cards, with a note about no startup video displayed from some 3rd party graphics cards (i.e. Cards without a Mac ROM).

So Here we are. Overclock performed with the following programs. 1) Software overclock: 2) Fan Speed Control: 3) Temp Monitoring and Overclock Verification: 4) Benchmarking Tool/Framerate recorder: I've successfully overclocked my Radeon HD 6970m 2GB on my 2011 iMac to the following numbers for purposes of overclock testing. For me, 800/1100 was a conservative overclock. I never had temps go above 75C.
I ran my fans at 2200,3500,2200 and make sure temps were nice and cool. It should be noted that higher overclocks are certainly possible.
I achieved a few frame hiccoughs when at 820/1200 when running fans at 2200,2500,2200, so I erred on faster fan speeds and lower clocks to make sure I don't get into trouble with longer gaming sessions: Below is a list of benchmarks from FRAPS. GREAT NEWS!!! (for those looking to overclock).
Had an hour or 2 to noodle around today and gave my first attempt w/ an alternate program,. Default clock settings were 680 core/900 mem. I was able to safely increase to 830 core/1130 mem with Tmax about 74C immediately after stopping benchmark. Artifact/Benchmark testing was performed via Furmark v1.8 at native resolution w/ no AA. I saw a jump in frames per second (FPS) from 30 to 40 FPS. I ran continuous testing for about 30 minutes max. Fans were controlled via SMC fan control (though can be set w/ Trixx as well).
Speeds were ran extra high as Furmark can cause really high GPU temps. I ran fans #s 1,2, & 3, respectively at 2200, 3000, and 2200 rpm. Did not try and 'real world' testing w/ games but will give y ou updates results on gaming improvements noted. Based on furmark and the numbers I'm expected a 10-12 fps gain. Will post benchmarks for COD 4,6,7; deadspace2; the witcher; etc. Let me know if there's a game you really want me to test, I have a few.
I don't own crysis 2 but could check a demo. Click to expand.Everyone who purchased iMac actually had a choice to go with custom build -god almighty with 4 gpu sli crappy chassis noisy power hog so called powerful and crappy display PC- Yet lot of us here choose the alternative, we bought sleek beautiful all in one with so called incapable gpu We re not stupid here, we had a choice building a pc with $1000 - $2000 money. We were able to afford custom build.
But we didnt go that way. Even Apple give us 14 days return policy in case we hate Macs, yet we didnt take the privilege. Can you return your whole $1000 custom build PC if you dont satisfied? Not so much on the other hand. Lots of pc camper out there bash apple simply because they cant afford one well i didnt meant to be arrogant, but sometimes they just getting on my nerve We just love iMac more Why pc guys also so eager OCing their quad sli GPU? Still not fast enough? Wanna blow the electric bill a bit more?
Or simply feels inconfident to take down a Mac? Another proof are regular comments on YouTube videos about gaming on iMac.' My $600 PC did better than that. Or My 2 years gaming PC had more FPS than that!!' Why didn't they say 'My $3000 Alienware can do better?' They can't afford iMac and they mad for one.
They envy iMacs EDIT: For OP. Good job, maybe you can do dynamic overclocking and list FPS increase for each OC increment,tested on one particular game For example: Crysis 2, NativeRes, Ultra settings, 4x MSAA Memory / Core / FPS / Temp 680 / 920 /38 /60 700 / 950 /48 /67 800 / 960 /57 /74 and so on.
We can get better picture by limiting ourself for optimum overclocking Getting best FPS without toasting your GPU. GREAT NEWS!!!

You cannot built that. As all in ones go, the iMac is the best. The discussions here escalate when people effectively try to justify that an all In one is a great gaming system, and people with dedicated gaming rigs roll their eyes. I love my iMac, it's my favourite computer, but I use my gaming rig and the iMac as a display using target mode when I game. Anyone trying to convience me that the iMac is a great gaming solution has no hope as the gaming experience with all the setting at ultra at 1440p is so much better on my PC then in my iMac (I cannot max games out on an IMac at 1440p).

So I can safely say that I've paid my right of passage, and can afford it. You my friend, sound like a complete jerk.
I beg the pc community to understand that all people who own Mac's aren't this full of their own @#$%. As for price vs performance. I completely understand that I pay a premium. I understand and accept the 'FACT' that I could get better performance for less money in a pc.
I enjoy and prefer the Mac operating system & user experience over the Windows offering. I also prefer the overall styling of the products. For the record I also own and use an Asus G73 gaming laptop, running Windows 7 64 bit, just so there's no question if I have paid enough money. It's a well built system (granted, a bit bulky.), and good stable operating system with useful features.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO POST ONE THING ABOUT OVERCLOCKING WITHOUT HAVING SOMEONE POST: 1) It's dangerous 2) You should've bought a gaming rig. I don't have room for 2 computers in my apartment. I chose to go with iMac because it's the best all-in-one available. Furthermore, Windows 7, though leaps and bounds better than vista and all-around a great OS, I prefer Mac OSX.
I use a great deal of applications that are unique to Mac and have my content geared towards Mac use. NOW PLEASE STOP TROLLING! For those who are actually interested in discussing overclocking, please see next post. An iMac is an all in one. You cannot built that.

Click to expand.Yeah, no Macs are perfect gaming solution, not even MacPro. But some people here willing take the risk to make iMac as BETTER gaming machine, it´s not perfect, but it´s quite capable. You should just appreciate that.
OCing the GPU on iMac can quite boost performance as every gaming CPU do. Gaining some more FPS on our iMac by OC (with some limit of course) sounds fine to me. We won´t see 3digits FPS on iMac too often, but 60FPS, while keeping some eye candy effects on native resolution should do it for me. Briefly, before I left for work tonight I did a quick benchmark of Just Cause 2 (b/c it's demanding and includes a benchmark utility). I was looking at gains on the order of 7-9 FPS improvement between default clocks and 820/1120. In certain cases this meant the difference between skipping and no skipping.
This puppy seems to handle AA pretty well! I had max settings including SSAO set to 'high' and light point spec on. Tested at 2560x1440 w/ 2x AA. Looked gorgeous and no skipping. Avg FPS in the 40s without a single noticeable stutter. I will post more tomorrow evening with actual numbers.
I tried COD: BO at max settings at native res w/ 2x AA, and when attempting a benchmark with FRAPS, the screen froze! I was seeing FPS in the 60-70s though!!! Could have been a software bug as I'm running the original release version of the game and running other software for benchmarking, but in the meantime.
If you're OC'ing you may want to back down to 800 or 810 and cautiously move upwards. I still have not tested these numbers with any lengthy playtime (1 hr). I have not seen temps go above 74C yet, however. I can tell you that COD4 runs perfect with everything maxed out at default clocks high 50s-60s native res.
COD MW2 also runs quite well. COD:BO but the hurt on when ratcheting up the AA w/ default clocks. I will see what difference the overclock makes, but I'm thinking you'll be able to comfortably run 4x AA at 2560x1440.
For those who see AA doesn't make a difference at that resolution, you're wrong! It's so crisp with AA it makes it hard to go back to PS3. So far things are looking good!

SAPPHIRE TriXX is an incredibly useful application for owners of SAPPHIRE video cards. It allows them to get the best performance that’s supported by these video cards. Furthermore, the program can monitor voltages, temperatures and GPU loads, but also create and save multiple performance scenarios.
SAPPHIRE TriXX’s UI has a bold design that’s equally functional and easy to use. The few menus offer access to Overclocking options, Fan control, Graphics Card Info and Settings.
In the Graphics Card Info section you can view a detailed report on the card, GPU, buss width, memory size, shaders, BIOS version and drivers. The Overclocking Options offers a variety of parameters you can tweak to boost the performance of your SAPPHIRE card. Users can customize the memory, GPU and clicks for core but it is recommended you do some research how such operations will affect the hardware before you actually do it. Configuring the parameters to inapropriate values can damage the graphics card. Users can save up to four overclocking scenarios under each custom profile and in the Fan Control section you can monitor the current fan speed, with options to set it to automatic, fixed or custom value. In the Settings menu you can access even more customizations, such as enabling sync of cards in multi-GU configurations, but also installing a Windows sidebar gadget for faster access to the graphics card information.
