Dear hardware gurus
Much to my irritation Apple say my Mac Pro can't do Mojave because the
graphics card isn't supported. This is extra annoying for two reasons -
firstly they didn't even provide a link so I had to type in the URL and
secondly I just bought a second graphics card to install for extra
monitors which is identical to the one I have! It's on my desk at the
moment, waiting for me to sort it out...
Ok, so to business. Could one of the hardware gurus offer advice on
whether any of the following list have good standing/should be avoided?

These specific third-party graphics cards are Metal-capable and
compatible with macOS Mojave on Mac Pro (Mid 2010) and Mac Pro (Mid
2012):
MSI Gaming Radeon RX 560 128-bit 4GB GDRR5
SAPPHIRE Radeon PULSE RX 580 8GB GDDR5
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 7950 Mac Edition
NVIDIA Quadro K5000 for Mac
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 Mac Edition
Some other third-party graphics cards* based on the following AMD GPU
families might also be compatible with macOS Mojave on Mac Pro (Mid
2010) and Mac Pro (Mid 2012):
AMD Radeon RX 560
AMD Radeon RX 570
AMD Radeon RX 580
AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100
AMD Radeon RX Vega 56
AMD Radeon RX Vega 64
AMD Radeon Pro WX 9100
AMD Radeon Frontier Edition
(I think we can dispense with the second 'maybe' list).
Also, I would like to run three monitors (inc an e-ink one I recently
got) so any hard-won knowledge/experience would be very welcome on this
(the machine is supposed to support three but via the most convoluted
methods that I never got working). So I may want to install two cards to
get the set-up I want...
thanks for any help
Jason
