iMac 2012 has thunderbolt so is it pretty much the same thing as macbook pro?

Thanks

This guy is selling both for 275$ not sure if this is a good deal ViDock and Sonnet Echo Pro

I have MacBook Pro 2015 13' i5, Do I need this stuff Or should I just go and buy Akitio2 + GPU + Power?

Not sure what a bridge tool is but you only need the PCIE extender cable if your GPU won't fit into the akitio box. If you buy the single fan version it should fit quite easily otherwise you can get the extender cable. If you pick up the Akitio box plus the two items I mentioned you should be good to go.

I've also seen some people having issues with the 2015 MBPr. I don't know much about it since I have a 2014 i5 and it works fine. You can search through the current guides and discussions to see if you can find anything.

Can you please send me an amazon link for 8 pin to 2x6pin and barrel plug I looked for it but nothing comes up, and is could 2GB single fan would work fine on some games? like battlefield at list on mid settings

500 Watt PSU is way overkill for a 750Ti. I run a GTX 960 with a 220W Dell DA-2 power brick. You can find it for less than 20$ on ebay (for example). Along with the Dell I bought an 8 pin to 2x6pin and barrel plug which should give you everything you need to put it together. All you have to do is plug everything together and then install the drivers in windows.

thank you for reply, in another thread this guy had Bridge Tool and PCIE extender cable , should I have them too? and how about my macbook pro 13' 2015 i5 would that be ok? i was reading in another thread that macbook i5 is not good

So I got his Amazon order waiting to check out 405$ total

Macbook Pro 1300$ (asset)

Akitio Thunder 2 - 217$

EVGA GeForce 750Ti 2GB - 129$

500walt - 39$

Cable 29$

is this a final setup? is it easy to set up? I already got windows 8.1/win 10
