Hi, is there a reasonable way to add AVX2 support to a Mac Pro 6,1? Is there some thunderbolt PCI express thing I can plugin with a card or something?

How can I tell what newer machines have AVX2? My 2015 iMac 5k appears to and that is only a few years newer than my MP 6,1.
Do the new Mac Minis M1 and 2 have AVX2?
Question, why is it that a 6,1 can run Sonoma With OCLP. why do the older GPUs work in Sonoma like the d300-700 but the new Navi 2 Rx 6800xt can’t work. I know it has to do with avx2 but I am just wondering why the older GPUs work and the newer ones don’t, do the new drivers for the Navi 2 have avx2 built into them in Ventura as a-posed to the drivers in Monterey? Just trying to understand this better. ThanksAll year model 2013 and newer Macs, with the exception of the MacPro6,1, already have AVX2.0.
Apple Silicon have different SIMD/vector instructions (NEON and etc) that are more or less equivalent of the most recent Intel AVX instructions.

Although I have been back on Sonoma for the last couple of days on my 5,1, my Monterey boot is more reliable.
Sonoma is mostly stable with my flashed Sapphire RX-580 7GB. But there are occasional crashes especially if I let it sleep over night. I just shut it down when not in use.
Yes. But AVX2 related issues should replicate, shouldn't they?Interesting, but did you noticed that this thread is about late-2013 Mac Pro?
…still won’t be able to run software that requires AVX2 like the latest Adobe Premiere etc.?
Well, there is Intel's Sofware Development Emulator that you can try.run software that requires AVX2 like the latest Adobe Premiere
