Hi,
I upgraded to the latest version of LR Classic on Thursday. I am running High Sierra on a 2014 MacPro trashcan.
Prior to upgrade I had been looking at a .NEF file from my Niko Z7.
After upgrade I noticed two things:
1. The .NEF file I had looked at before the upgrade for some reason looked about 1 stop darker post upgrade. It should not have changed.. Correct?
2. I went into LR Preferences and switched to "Custom"and was able to select "Use GPU for Display" but I can't select "Use GPU for image processing. My MacPro's Video card is the AMD Radeon HD FirePro. Why?

Thanks!

I believe you need to be on 10.14.5 or above to get the full benefits of GPU options. However, I believe it's a limitation of the Graphics card (I have exactly the same set-up but with Mojave)

Photos should look the same between 8.3 and 8.4 (assuming no changes to the photo or PV or course!)
