Hi, I installed PlayOnMac yesterday after looking for a way to play games without partitioning my drive for some time now. Installed steam relatively painlessly and downloaded Oblivion and Skyrim. When I go into options to change video settings it says that I have a Radeon RX 460 Graphics card when in fact I have a Radeon Pro 560X. The games seem to run ok although initially Skyrim wouldn't work (said I didnt have some shader engine 3 installed) but upon reinstalling everything is now working to an extent.

I am also unsure on how much vram to tell PlayOnMac I have, my dedicated chip has 4gb but integrated only 1.5 or there abouts, and I guess steam does not need a dedicated chip to run but the games do, so clarification would be great.

Thanks!
