Here is full list of AMD ID's supported in Mojave and corresponding customer cards (credit to u/csabikaa97) I will update the list if needed. You must remove Inject ATI in the graphics section. Here is example for mine R7 250 based on Oland XT chip. You only need to input correct fake ID for ATI in Clover Devices section. In my opinion it's much cleaner to use Apple native support by telling OSX which exactly chip you’re using. While kexts like WhateverGreen offer solution for most but they don't cover all the cards. However, let’s not dwell on the past and let’s see how well the R7 260X stacks up against the current market offerings.As AMD has done a lot of rebranding your card might not work OTB in OSX. The R7 260X is more powerful than an AMD Radeon HD 5870 – the flagship of three generations ago (and a graphics card that I still run inside my own personal rig). Despite the seemingly “mediocre” specifications it’s worth noting that the R7 260X is still a great card. The R7 260X uses the same Bonaire GPU as the HD 7790 did with 896 GCN cores. This has come at a power cost according to what AMD say, the TDP has been uprated from 85W to 115W but will that show up in testing? As mentioned previously the memory is now a standard 2GB configuration as opposed to the either 1GB or 2GB on the HD 7790. API support is also updated – going from DX 11.1 and OpenGL 4.2 to DX 11.2, OpenGL 4.3 and Mantle API support is also introduced. That sees an increase in TFLOPS from 1.79 to 1.97. Those higher clock speeds are quite substantial with a boost from 1000MHz to 1100MHz on the core and 6000MHz to 6500MHz on the memory – that’s roughly 10% on both. That said the R7 260X does bring some improvements such as 2GB of GDDR5 as standard (instead of that being a more expensive luxury like it was on the HD 7790) and higher clock speeds. In fact it is more or less identical to the HD 7790 which came to market at about $150 when it was released but can now be had for as low as $115.
In particular the R7 260X we have here today is AMD’s $139.99 offering based on the HD 7790. The AMD R7 260X is another of AMD’s “new” graphics cards that is actually based on a rehashed card from the HD 7000 series. Having already checked out the AMD R9 280X and AMD R9 270X for today’s launch it is now time to take a look at something from the mainstream R7 series and in particular we have the R7 260X with us in this review.
