  1. I have the same issue here too. I tried everything but couldn't make my egpu with gtx 980 to work on macbook retina screen. Let me know if you find out any news or solution for it.
  2. Hi, I was using my egpu completely fine with windows 8.1 and i saw that nvidia has released dx12 drivers for Windows 10 preview edition. so I thought to install the windows 10 using bootcamp. so now I have installed Windows 10 successfully also my egpu was detected and i installed the drivers too. everything looked fine but now when i try to run 3dmark 11 to test performance, my only internal gpu works but not my gtx 980. i knew because it is giving very low fps in the benchmark test. Is any one had any idea please let me know. Thanks
  3. Thanks for the advice. I have decided to keep my 980. At last can you do me a last favour: Can you show me 3dmark 11 extreme and performance benchmark score of your egpu setup. Also can you tell me which macbook pro you have? 13 or 15 inch.
  4. I have MSI GTX 970 GAMING 4G in mind to replace with my evga gtx 980 sc. The MSI card has 6+8 pin power connector so it would be no problem to over clock and match the performance of the 980. what do you say. my aim is to play games only on internal display due to its high resolution. and i am not sure i would buy 4k monitor in the near future. Thanks.
  5. Looks like its pretty close to my score of 46 FPS. looks like on Internal display, gtx 970 and 980 gives similar performance due to thunderbolt bandwidth limit. So Dschijn what do you suggest to me, should i return my gtx 980 and replace with gtx 970 as it gives similar or close performance while only using Retina Display for playing PC games. Let me know please and Thank you for your genuine help. Following is my score with EVGA gtx 980 SC acx
  6. Among others, you gave me the best response and Thank you for that. to clear the confusion My MBPr 15.4" is Late 2013 model with 2 Ghz core i7 processor which has 3.2 Ghz turbo boost. I used Evga Gtx 980 SC ACX 2.0 for my build. I used MBPs Display for Benchmarks and are as follows. Unigine heaven 4 Score: 1161 at 46 FPS with settings as follows Mode: 2560x1600 Windowed Preset: Custom Quality: High Tessellation: Normal Also 3d Mark 11 score is: 8081 Can you use your setup for the same benchmarks at the same setting and show me the score. which will show me the performance difference. Thanks again
  7. Hi, I am really in a dilemma here. My only motive for the Egpu is to play pc games only on the MAC BOOK'S internal display with retina resolution and ultra settings. I have read that gtx 970 is capable of playing games at 2560x1440p with decent FPS. so what should i buy for my egpu built. is GTX 970 would be enough powerful to let me play "Latest Games" like FarCry 4 at native "Retina Resolution" with "Ultra" (maxed out) settings. if you have any egpu setup with akitio and gtx 970, would you please show me the benchmarks of your system using "Optimus internal screen at 2560x1600 or retina resolution". i would really appreciate it if any of you can provide different benchmarks at 2560x1600 resolution. "FYI: I have 2014 retina macbook pro 15.4" iris only with 2 GHz cpu (3.2 GHz Turbo) and akitio thunder 2 pcie box" Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks

  13. Hi, In your benchmark shows that gtx 780 is scoring more than gtx 980. how is that.
