Will Arnold work with Mac OS 10.14 Macbook Pro 2018 AMD GPU?

Before I download a trial will Arnold work with Mac OS 10.14 Mojave - Macbook Pro 2018 AMD GPU? No other renderer seems to support these specs. All need Nvidia cards.

Yes, Arnold will work because Arnold is a CPU-based renderer that works with AMD or Intel.

The Optix Denoiser won't work though.

@Stephen BlairThanks, I thought it was too good to be true that something would actually work 100% with this MAC. Thanks for the reply.

No, but it will work with your CPU.

so in theory,

with a very powerful cpu I.e a mac m2 max Arnold will work effectively?

Yes, of course. More cores more better!
