  1. 1. The ViDock is a bad choice! You are limited by the expresscard adapter to 4Gbit/s and you will never get the full potential! 2. So expensive! Don't do it! 3. Not as much as 2, but still expensive! I would recommend the AKiTiO. All you need is a powered riser and a decent PSU. Pop both + a GPU in a Mini-ITX case and you got a solution similar to the Sonnet Echo Express III-D, but way cheaper
  2. I'm a .NET(C#) + Xamarin developer and use Illustrator and Photoshop alot for interface design. Also using it for editing photos, but not in anyway pro. And then there is gaming, I still play alot of games despite not having that much time anymore. Looking forward to playing the new Far Cry 4 soon
  3. I will get this setup in a few days: New Macbook Pro 15 with the Iris Pro AKiTiO Thunder2 PCIe Box PCIe 16x to 16x Powered Riser (Molex connector) Asus Strix GTX 970 (4GB) Corsair RM550 Still waiting for the AKiTiO box and Macbook, but both are here tuesday/wednesday next week. I will be able to test the optimus problems and other stuff. So if you need me to test anything, let me know
  4. Thanks It's gonna be some long days until everything arrives in the middle of next week
  5. Hey guys! I've just ordered: New Macbook Pro 15 with the Iris Pro AKiTiO Thunder2 PCIe Box PCIe 16x to 16x Powered Riser (Molex connector) Asus Strix GTX 970 (4GB) Corsair RM550 Is there anything I'm missing besides a case? I'll look into a case later on once I got everything working
  6. First of all, thanks for the guide! I have just ordered the AkiTiO box and it should arrive next week and I'm picking up my MBP 2014 with Pro Iris next week as well I have some questions I hope you don't mind answering. 1. Is it correct that I don't spot a PCI-e riser? 2. I'm going for a GTX 780 as well. Do you know if Asus, Zotac or the other brands will work just like the EVGA you have or? 3. How stable is it for gaming? I'm hoping to shoot some bad guys when Far Cry 4 launches! 4. Did you manage to get the external monitor to work in OS X? Thanks!
