V-Ray GPU is not officially supported on macOS.

It works only with C++/CPU devices. V-Ray GPU can still be used in distributed rendering where a macOS machine runs the CUDA engine on a CPU device together with Windows/Linux machine(s) running CUDA engine on GPU device(s).



Customer support is available only for V-Ray 6 and V-Ray 5. Earlier versions are no longer supported.

V-Ray 5 for SketchUp, update 2.2 is the last version that runs on macOS 10.10, 10.11, 10.12 and 10.13.
