*NEWBIE NEEDS HELP* MBP eGPU build questions MBP specs: 13" with retina display 2.6 GHZ i5 256 GB flash storage 8 GB ram Hey guys, so I've been researching into adding an eGPU to a Macbook Pro and I have a few questions: How can I connect a GTX 750 Ti to an AkiTio Thunderbolt2? Do I need a fan and psu for the AkiTio and GPU? What is a powered riser, and will I need one? Why do people use bootcamp and install Windows to play games when you can use wine? If I need a fan and psu, should I get an enclosure? What would be cheaper and easier, to get a PE4L and an express card slot or get an AkiTio Thunderbolt2? Is there any coding or changing of files that needs to be done if I'm not using Windows? Will adding an eGPU mess up the Mac (I've heard of people having problems with safari and watching videos after using an eGPU)? How do I use the internal screen of the MBP instead of an external screen? Will I still get error 12 if I don't use Windows? Finally: Is there a guide that can help me put everything together? Thanks in advance guys; I really don't know any of these things. I know there are a lot of questions but it'd be awesome if you guys could answer them!
