DIY eGPU Macbook experiences
in Apple eGPU discussion
Posted
Hey there.
I currently have a MBP 9,2 (Mid-2012 13-inch with 2.9 GhZ i7). I'm in the process of making a full desktop build but I'll get my processor only sometime in June. I was wondering whether it would make sense for me to have a eGPU setup in the meantime. The card I will be attempting this with is a full size Gigabyte Windforce R9 290.
I looked around on the forum, but there is a lot of outdated information which means that I can't accurately judge what will work for me and what won't.
Since my card is full length, it won't fit in the AKiTiO Thunder2 box.
I was hoping I'd be able to use it with a PE4H and a Sonnet Echo ExpresscardPro.
My questions about this are:
Thanks in advance.
