I am considering getting a 2019 Mac Pro (Intel) to run Houdini on. The graphics card for the model I am looking at is a AMD Radeon Pro 580X, which is not on the supported list. Does this mean Houdini would not run at all, or would it just be subject to more crashes? I am currently using a 2018 MacBook laptop and althiugh the graphics card is also not on the list, it does run, although some of the functions like the advanced viewport lighting don't work.

Can anyone share their experience with using a 2019 Mac Pro (Intel) and share their configuration (especially graphics card)? Do you experience many crashes running sins like FLIP and RBD? If so, how often?

Houdini lists SSE 4.2 as a requirement, but this model has Intel® AVX-512. Would this still work? Can someone confirm?
