So I'm running an RX580 that I just got installed today as well. Everything works fine and it tears through every game I have but running bootcamp with this card is a problem. Holding down "option" during boot doesn't let me view my boot options.
Does anyone have experience with this side of the matter? It was truly a plug and play experience except that I never see the boot screen, it jumps straight to the login screen.
Thanks.
The RX580 is a normal PC Card, there is no Mac EFI in the ROM. Therefore, it won’t display anything until driver load. This is true for all PC Card. If you want to use the boot manager. You may
1) install another Mac EFI card (e.g GT120) to provide boot screen
2) Flash the card with Mac EFI (however, there is no working Mac EFI for RX580 yet. So this is not an option at all at this moment)
3) use some boot loader to “active” the card. E.g. Clover, eEFInd, etc. It was done by someone with the older OS on another card. There is no report about able to do that on RX580 yet.
So, technically, only option 1 available to you.
However, that’s solely base on you need boot manager. If all you want just a way to switch between Windows and MacOS. You can select the “next boot partiton” in system preference (MacOS), or Bootcamp manager (Windows). If your MacOS is already running APFS, then BootChamp with SIP disabled can also work flawlessly.
