Thanks for the heads up, it does look tempting! 

Judging from the relative size of the actual GPU this box is way to big to be an elegant solution compared to for example the razer core, powercolor eGPU or the gigabyte eGPU solution IMHO. All is good if the pricing is OK

This is just the first announcement from a single manufacturer, many more to follow!

It's a marketting ploy. There's no Thunderbolt chip on the EXP GDC boards as Cloud isn't a certified Intel developer. It means he's counting on the the Sonnet TB-to-Expresscard adapter to gain TB support. That constricts bandwidth from native 16Gbps-TB2 or 10Gbps-TB1 to 4Gbps-EC2. You can see the arrangement needed at http://forum.techinferno.com/diy-e-gpu-projects/8007-bizon-ru-rip-off-alert-thunderbolt-bizonbox-crippled-tb-ec-4gbps-unit.html#post105056

4GBps will be enough right? What i mean is that it will use the GPU to its full potential right, it wont throgtle?

Hi guys,

I'm new on this forum, but I have been checking this forum for a long time since i have been looking into crafting a egpu for my mid 2012 macbook pro for quite some time now. I found the following adapter via a Youtube channel, what do you guys think of it? Link: EXP GDC Laptop External PCI-E Graphics Card - US$50.00. I was thinking about combining the expresscard version with the sonnet expresscard to thunderbolt adapter, but I thought it might be easier to ask on this forum before actually buying it.

I have the following questions:

1: Could I run the following setup in bootcamp?

2. Could GPU's run on full potential or does this setup bottleneck a GPU?

3. Any other remark?

Thanks

Cheers

EDIT: the video I saw this setup on:
