First release of XMRIG for mac os working for CPU and AMD GPUs.
Currently the following algo have been tested on GPU and CPU:
- KawPow "kawpow" GPU
- RandomX "algo": "rx/0" CPU
- UPX "cn/upx2" CPU
Tested on:
- Catalina
- Sierra 10.12.6
- OSx 10.15.7
Tested on GPUs:
- AMD RX 580 8Gb
- AMD Radeon Pro 64 16gb
Tested on CPU:
- Hackintosh Dual Xeon 10+10 cores, 64 Gb ram
- Mac Pro 2017 3.0 Ghz Xeon 10 core 64 Gb ram
older MacOS/GPU version might have issues.
Some algos are still not working using GPUs due to OpenCL not supported by by Apple anymore.
For example UPX, which is a CPU mineable coin, gives errors if mined with GPU.
If you find an algo not working, please provide infor

mation in the issue section.
All work for making XMRIG working with AMD GPUs is from @Spudz76, I just went through the trouble of compiling the code for macOS.
NOTE: If you want to run on different pools, you can run 2 instances of XMRIG with 2 different config.json, one for CPU and the other for GPU and define 2 different algos and pools.
Check the 2 configuration files for CPU and AMD GPU
