| AMD Radeon Vega 56, Radeon 5700 (1)
This card is supported in the Breakaway Box 350, 550 or 650.
AMD Radeon Vega 56, Radeon 5700 XT (1,2)
This card is supported in the Breakaway Box 550 or 650.
AMD Radeon Vega 64 (2) (air cooled), Vega Frontier Edition (air cooled); Radeon Pro WX8200 or WX9100; Radeon VII (3):
These cards are supported in the Breakaway Box 650.
AMD Radeon Vega 64 (liquid cooled) or Vega Frontier Edition (liquid cooled):
These cards are not supported.
1. The Radeon 5700 and 5700 XT are supported on Windows 10 Build 1809+. Support on macOS requires 10.15.2+
2. Some large gaming versions of Vega 64 and Radeon 5700 XT do not fit in the Breakaway Box. Check the Graphics Card Compatibility pdf for specific model information.
3. The Radeon VII is requires Windows 10 Build 1809+ or macOS 10.14.6+ to work at all, but we don't recommend it. On macOS, the Radeon VII mostly works, but is not officially supported by Apple, AMD, or Sonnet. On macOS or Windows, The Radeon VII fans unnecessarily run at full speed upon sleep or shutdown. To quiet the fans, the user must power down an eGPU chassis with a Radeon VII upon sleep or shutdown. |
