It's technically this card: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/r ... v520.c3755

So, yes.
However we have not included it in whitelist.

post its PCI ID here, please, if you want it included.

Though I am not sure if their drivers are still working, and if drivers are not disabling this card's other functionality

nvm, the card is already whitelisted. Tweaked the name of it, to indicate that that is this card

It should work, but there's literally no advantage bothering with such things.

Get a normal Radeon or a Geforce instead.

you may be right - was just browsing and "toppled" over the card -

it seem the be effiecient card - but then compared against older cards, not newest generation.
