Honeyminer: Mining on a Mac Pro 28-Core 2.5 GHz Intel Xeon W-3275M + AMD Radeon Pro Vega II Duo

Post by macminergod »




Running Honey Miner on a top of the line Mac Pro. Mostly disappointing results mainly because of lack of compatibility. Honey Miner found the Intel CPU's and AMD Radeon Pro Vega II Duo, however it would not mine with the Vega II Duo because there is no compatible driver that exists as I understand. CPU mining hashrate was around 10 kH/s. Again, lower hashrates than just running XMRig directly on macOS (see our XMRig install guide here: viewto...​) Visit for the latest crypto mining software and install guides for macOS and Windows.

System Details:
Mac Pro (Late 2019) (MacPro7,1)
macOS Catalina 10.15.7
2.5GHz 28‑core (56 Virtual Cores) Intel Xeon W-3275M Turbo Boost 4.4GHz
32GB (4x8GB) 2933 MHz of DDR4 ECC memory
2TB SSD storage
AMD Radeon Pro Vega II Duo with 2x32GB of HBM2 memory
BIOS Version: 016.004.000.045
