If you this helped you too, please consider scrolling to the end of this page and buy me a tall latte to keep this blog going.In the coming weeks, AMD will release new drivers for its Radeon RX 6000 series and preceding generations of graphics chips. You will need to restart your Mac and the eGPU should work perfectly again! So I went ahead and tried the command below which would rebuild the kext cache. When there isn’t a new stable version out, one option was to install a beta copy of macOS, which if you’re going from a stable version, it would be likely to be newer.īut I then posted this issue on the eGPU.io forums, at the forum shared that I could have fixed it simply by rebuilding the kernel cache. Updated: The actual fix for the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT drivers not installed problem on macOS Catalina 10.15.xīack when I initially had this problem, I got it fixed by forcing a reinstall of the drivers by updating to a newer version of macOS Catalina. This was when I realised that MacOS actually recognised the Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 5700 XT but is reporting that the drivers was not installed. It also wasn’t a power supply issue as the Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 5700 XT powered up and had its LED and fan spinning as I tested it with the Razer Core X eGPU enclosure case opened while it was connected to my MacBook. That’s primarily because when I swapped the Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 5700 XT with my old PowerColor Radeon RX 580, the eGPU was detected and worked perfectly.

MacOS reports from the eGPU menu bar icon that there is no eGPU connected when the Razer Core X eGPU enclosure is connected to my MacBook. Turns out the my external GPU that’s powered by the Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 5700 XT isn’t working properly.Īt first, I thought it was a hardware failure. When I turned on my MacBook today, I was surprised with a blank display on my external display.
