MP 1,1-5,1 Radeon WX 2100 for Photoshop?

[pullman]

Is anyone using the Radeon WX2100 for Photoshop work?

Silly question perhaps but I'm looking for a good-enough single-slot GPU that doesn't need additional power. I'm wondering if I'd see a big difference between the 2100 and the 3100.

AMD Radeon Pro WX 2100 and WX 3100 are graphics cards based on the LEXA GPU and are not supported by macOS.

Are you sure? They're listed in this old thread:

MP3,1 never dies - Netkas patched AMD METAL drivers to work with MP3,1!

Maybe MP3,1 got a new lease in life. @netkas made a patch to make AMD Polaris cards to work with MP3,1 Xeon, emulating a SSE4.2 instruction needed by the AMD METAL driver for Polaris cards. Read more here: http://forum.netkas.org/index.php/topic,13890.0.html Thx @Nick [D]vB for the tip. AMD...

I'm trying to find a single-slot GPU that doesn't need extra power, and I'd be using it in a 3,1 with dosdude's HS or Mojave.

Post is mine and is incorrect, LEXA GPUs or Polaris 12 were never supported by Apple after all these years.

Removed the mention of any LEXA GPUs or Polaris 12 there. Single slot Polaris cards confirmed know to work with a MP5,1 are Radeon Pro WX 4100, WX 5100 and WX 7100.

Brilliant, thank you Alex. That narrows down my search nicely.
