Did anyone get this thing working? or is it just an expensive paperweight? Seems it even dont work on macos anymore other than as a usb hub.

The internal gpu is detected just fine...

But there it seems to end...

Any ideas what to do? or just put it on the garbage heap and call it a day?

@kimasplund
1002:67ef is the device ID for an RX 460, not an RX 580. I'm guessing someone either replaced the internal 580 with a dead 460, or they tried to flash an RX 460 VBIOS onto the 580. I would try flashing the original vbios here's a copy and see if that fixes it. I believe Igor's lab has an amdvbflash tool for linux, otherwise there's an official bios flashing tool that only works on windows.

Hey. Il try to reflash it and see if it sorts things out. But i i guess the RX 460 id that comes up there is the integrated graphics on my macbook.
this comes up when egpu is not connected.

il check with the egpu again later today when i get back to my office.
