Use the Radeon Pro W6800X Duo MPX Module with your Mac Pro (2019)
Find out about the many different display set-ups that you can use with MPX Module on your Mac Pro (2019).
The Radeon Pro W6800X Duo MPX Module contains two AMD Radeon Pro W6800X graphics processing units (GPUs) with 32GB of GDDR6 memory each, four Thunderbolt 3 ports and one HDMI 2.0 port. You can use the Thunderbolt 3 ports to connect displays and external devices to your Mac Pro, and also use the Thunderbolt 3 ports on the top* and rear of your Mac Pro to connect additional displays.
About ports and buses
The MPX module has two buses for its Thunderbolt 3 ports. If you connect two 5K or 6K displays to the Thunderbolt 3 ports on your MPX module, connect one display per bus.
If you connect a display to the HDMI port on your MPX module, the Thunderbolt 3 ports on Bus 0 can support one additional display with a resolution of 4K or lower. If you need audio output from a display connected to the HDMI port and have other displays connected over Thunderbolt 3, don't connect a display to the Thunderbolt 3 port next to the HDMI port.

Use Infinity Fabric Link
Infinity Fabric Link is pre-installed on your MPX module and enables data transfer between the GPUs that is up to five times faster.
When using a single Radeon Pro W6800X Duo MPX Module, the Infinity Fabric Link jumper should be installed, enabling apps that support Infinity Fabric Link to use it.
When using two Radeon Pro W6800X Duo MPX Modules, the Infinity Fabric Link bridge should be installed, enabling all four GPUs to work together in supported apps:
Infinity Fabric Link bridge for Radeon Pro W6800X Duo MPX Module (Model A2667) isn't compatible with previous-generation Radeon Pro MPX Modules.
If you use Boot Camp and have the Infinity Fabric Link bridge installed, the Thunderbolt 3 ports on Bus 1 and the top* of your Mac Pro can't be used to connect displays.
