Hi all
After my 6990m crapped out on me, I've decided to take jump on the eGPU wagon after doing the math and research.
However, after the swallowing the load of documentations, i just want to double check what ive read and understood is correct.
1) I have a Clevo P150HM motherboard, Series 6 Chipset to be exact, as far as i know i havent seen anyone do a eGPU setup on it.
2) It has a Realtek 8188CE WLAN card which should mean that i have a pcie connection and not a usb connection to the mpcie slot right?
RL8188CE
I had a quick look and the RL8188CE fits in the slot pretty snug which means that i need to break off the extension legs on the PM3N to get it in there? it doesnt look like there are threads running on the underside of the PCB.
3) Assuming i do have a pcie connected mpcie slot, i definitely need the PM3N mpcie adaptor but im quite lost on whether to get the PE4L or the PE4H
4) Now because i (think i) only have a SandyBridge mPCIe 2.0, i would only have 5GT/s of bandwidth so which gpu setup should i go for for the best performance before saturation against price (im thinking GTX760)
5) Am i missing anything else thats uber important?
Cheers and thanks for reading this
