MP 7,1 Next Gen AMD 7900 XT support for 7.1 Mac Pro?

That's impossible based on how macOS is designed in general.

Shame. because I think that’s more likely than Apple giving a darn and making new drivers.

It's not just the driver, it's the whole graphics subsystem Metal.

When Apple used to allow NVIDIA drivers to be written for macOS way back in the day, NVIDIA had major issues writing the drivers for them and it was super buggy too. I used to speak to NVIDIA driver technicians and they always complained.

There was a time when Linus Torvalds was pretty upset with Nvidia as well, in open source driver development

AMD updated the Boot Camp drivers last year. But I have not heard of any updates on the MacOS side

Agreed, it's really sad how they abandoned this great platform. Had so much potential...

On another note, I read somewhere on here that Mac Pro sales are > Mac Studio and Mini sales, so maybe there is a light at the end of the tunnel afterall?
