Hi firestormvfx,

 

The new HBM2 for Macbook Pro has not been tested/qualified to use with Flame as of the moment.  Only AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 8G GDDR6 is supported, please refer to the system requirement below:

Use of any hardware outside the supported configuration may work but we cannot guarantee the performance. 

 

I hope this info helps.

 

Regards,

Jeff

Thank you Jeffrey for the clarification.

I have considered this to be the case. 

 

Thanks MARK RENTON.
