Installed the new firmware revision successfully on a genuine mac pro 5,1 with an rx560! I do get the 5gt/s!

I upgraded to dp7 today and did not see a firmware upgrade screen pop up on a 5,1 with a rx470. Is the new firmware on a full download or upgrade? I’ll check when I get back to my desk.

I downloaded it from ddosdudes patcher as a full mojave installer, not as an update.I upgraded to dp7 today and did not see a firmware upgrade screen pop up on a 5,1 with a rx470. Is the new firmware on a full download or upgrade? I’ll check when I get back to my desk.
One of the two same part numbers that Apple shipped, yep. You can change the part number by editing the BIOS btw, there's an excellent post somewhere by @h9826790 which runs through how.is this one of the ones with the Same BIOS PN that apple shipped with the eGPU dev kits or?
while other RX 580s (and even some Pulse RX 580s which had diffrent PNs) have to make do with a generic frame-buffer, is that screen shot on the latest Mojave Beta or? im trying to work out if Apple is giving more RX 580s proper frame-buffer personalities
PS can you run CL!ng and post the Device to host and host to device results?
It's in the full installer.
Has anyone looked to see if NVMe support was added to the package?
I don't think so, but it would be a Godsend. I was tempted to try it, but I don't have another Mac or the skillset and tools needed to recover from a bricked machine.
Really Off Topic:
If I had bought a MP6,1, I'd be red with anger today… Apple is supporting MP5,1 much better than the trashcan.

Apple needs at least to resolve the APFS + NTFS (BootCamp) KP/corruption on shutdown on MP6,1 with NVMe. People are loosing data and that could be addressed via firmware/updates.Well the nMP's deficiencies can't really be addressed via firmware, right? I mean they already got native NVMe booting and I think Apple also fixed the earlier problem it had displaying 4K boot screens.
In terms of just sheer longevity though, yes the cMP is a champ--especially the 4,1. Shipped with Leopard and able to officially run Mojave with few compromises.
you can get it with the ddosdudes patcher tool!I would love to install this also, but alas I am not a dev and I don't want to pay out for the privilege for a beta. I wonder how long till the final public release is out. must say though looking good for us Mac Pro users!
thumbs up to apple

Yes for both questions.Does anyone know if this new firmware is compatible with High Sierra?
Also if it is compatible with HS, will RX580s link speed also be upgraded to 5GT/s on HS?
