Successful Mojave update on Sapphire Pulse RX 560

I was on firmware .0085 so when I got the installer I needed to perform a firmware upgrade, which was complicated but worked out in the end. After I got up to .0089 the installation was seamless
Was there a post in this forum that you used to follow directions? If yes can you provide the link? I would greatly appreciated it.
Sure,

Read bookemdano’s first response, that solution worked for me. You must have both a metal capable gpu AND an EFI flashed gpu like the Radeon HD 5770 or other.

Here you are! if you want anything else feel free to ask. on a side note, I'm not sure why the clock speed comes up as 300mhz and has 14 texture units but it does.How about a LuxMark benchmark?

If you were curious, there are serious stability improvements on graphics intensive tasks like gaming, more consistent and better frames, less freezes and all around more smooth.Thanks
Don’t worry about those readings, they are often erroneous in Luxmark (MacOS).

Because it is one of the cut down versions of the RX 560.
The giveaway is the texture units. An original RX 560 has 16 compute units:

Are you talking about problems with the RX-560 in High Sierra going away with Mojave? I just got an MSI RX-560 (the one recommended by Apple for Mojave) and I see graphics intensive problems in HS, and even a rare glitch on a static desktop, that are completely gone in Mojave with its new AMD drivers. I just want to confirm you saw problems in HS too so I know it isn't my 560 board.
No that bug was in high sierra and effects everyone using rx560s, it only happens for 1080p and the symptoms are screen artifacts flashing during intensive rendering activities

So to answer your question, no, your gpu is perfectly fine it was merely a compatiblity bug, i have a sapphire pulse and it did the same thing on HS, on mojave, its fixed
Thanks, good to confirm.
I figured it was HS driver problems since the RX-560 has never been officially supported for the Mac Pro in HS. There are even some RX-560 1080p problems in HS that are not graphics intensive. For instance, severe frame buffer (apparently) problems in the 1080p full-screen mode of Civ 4/5 games (even on its static menu screen), but no problems at all in a later Civ game variant. And now that the 560 is officially recommended (the MSI RX-560 anyway) for Mac Pro Mojave, those 560 drivers seem to work perfectly in all my test cases.
Yeah youre all good if you just updste to mojave, i have a 1440p monitor, which is why i didnt notice the problem originally.
Hi I am new to hackintosh and I will be building the pc in few weeks,
I found some compatible parts and want to buy this RX 560 Card, Please tell me how to make it work in Mojave.
also I don't have any other GFX card, and I can't buy other amd cards because most of them are too expensive for me and some are not available in my country. I found the RX 560 is perfect for my budget. Please reply me how to make it work for Mojave.
I will buy this parts for my hackintosh:
Motherboard: Gigabyte B360M D3H (LGA1151/Intel/H270/Micro ATX
or
GIGABYTE Z370 HD3P
CPU: Intel 8Th Generation I3 8100
GPU: Sapphire Pulse RX 560 4GB GDDR5 HDMI/DVI-D/DP OC (UEFI)
This is the Mac Pro forum. You'd have better luck with your questions at a hackintosh-specific forum or http://reddit.com/r/hackintosh or something
