Makoto Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Hi all, Here is a new success story for egpu on laptop.During my settings all informations that i needed was found here, so i just want to share my experience. If it can help anyone in future (apologize for my english...)LaptopACER iconia-6210 (dual screen laptop, no physical keyboard)CUP core i5 480MRAM 8gbSSD 256Windows 10 pro 64biteGPU adapterpe4c v3.0 mPCIE connecterDell D220P AC adapterAsus GTX750ti (use with hdmi cable to television)InstallationFirst the mPCIe express slot can be connect with just opening the rear panel, but can not be close after set the egpu.The first day i did all the connection, swith-on egpu power, switch PC give me nothing, just graphic card fan running and a red light on the egpu adapter.With turning switch1 to position2 on the adapter solve the problem (green light and windows running)But nothing automaticaly detected in windows. The device manager show only onboard intel graphic.In the forum, i saw that sometimes hot plug&play can resolve.I tried, but nothing detect.So i decided to buy setup1.3 from nando.After received it, just install and re-boot. After booting setup1.3 menu, message showed me that no egpu is detected, but after enable port2 form menu, it show "nvidia".But after chainload windows10, the card was detect as "windows default card".Tried to install nvidia driver, but the driver could not be install because "nvidia card not found".I tried to disable the second screen (as the laptop itself have 2 screens), and then the card was correctly detected.I need to disable the 2 screens on laptop if i want to use the card.Now everything run perfeclty at 1920x1080 resolution. A really good surprise that gta5 is also playable with 30~50fps(benchmark)biohazard6 -> max settingsgta4 -> max settings, only view distance is set to half due to cpu restriction.gta5 -> middle~high settingsMy next step is to set the setup1.3 to auto-boot with port 2 enable.Also to build a rack to put the egpu adapter and power, too many cables on the desk:05.18-flustered: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
