MacOS 10.14.5 was released today and supposedly begins initial support for AMD Radeon VII graphics cards. My setup consists of the following:
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)
Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter
Apple Thunderbolt 2 Cable
I have everything plugged in correctly - I installed purge-wrangler and have enabled all patches required for AMD GPU support. I can see the little icon in the upper right saying "Disconnect AMD Radeon VII" - so I know it's connected properly, but I don't know if my programs are actually using it. I don't see Radeon VII on my "About This Mac " window. I've tried download a GPU benchmark test to see if it would come up and nothing... It only shows my internal AMD Radeon R9 GPU. Is there something else I need to do in order for the Radeon VII to actually function?
Edit: I'm using my internal display only

yeah only works full 100% / shows up if you use an external Display and set this external display as the main display

Blender 2.8 beta doesn't see the Vega 64 or the VII in an eGPU at the moment. Even 2.7 is finicky.
