Any signs/rumours of Radeon RX 7900 XT drivers for macOS?

That would be nice, might be in Ventura if we are lucky and apple supply drivers.
Would the 7,1 even be able to power it out of the box? Rumors have said it's a 450 watt card - as far as I can tell, without MPX, the Mac Pro can only supply a max of 375 watts.

Mac pro 2019 has 4 8 pin PCIe power connections, so i think it will be fine, plus a 1.4kw PSU
Taken from OWC website.
In addition to the power provided directly by the PCIe slot, the Mac Pro also provides four 8-pin AUX power connectors that each provide 150W of power and one 6 pin AUX power connector providing 75W of power.

Whatever Apple decides... I bought 2 7900 XTX today.

I reckon it will happen.
If we look back to drivers released, 5000 and 6000 series, my bet is May to July 2023. Anything before April would be very not Apple.

I bought 3 x 7900 XTX even if I don’t believe that Apple will develop any drivers for it.
Best card performance and price wise anyway.

I didn't want to wait for apple to decide, i can always pick one up later if they do, it depends if apple want to support a card that will be beating the AS mac pro or not. so will stick with my 6900XT for now but will be adding a 4090fe for windows work as it fits.
it will also be powered via an external corsair SF-750w psu and the corsair cable will come through one PCIe slot to power it as 3 x 8 pin already connected to 6900XT as my 2019 mac pro never moves an easy solution. and when in Mac OSX i can turn the card off.

It’s possible Apple could release drivers for the RX 7900 GPUs, but I wouldn’t count on it unless AMD releases a workstation variant of Navi 31 such as the W7900 and then Apple decides to make an MPX version as W7900X. I don’t think there were RX 6000 series drivers in macOS until the W6800 showed up.
I was looking to see if there are any unidentified Navi 31 device IDs in AMD's Windows drivers and there isn't. There is only 0x744C, which is the RX 7900 XT & XTX.
