So I commented in the thread "5k iMac" asking a question, but nobody responded so I figured I could ask it in a new thread. As I understand it you can't use an <gs id="41d5171d-2f52-4d2d-b3e3-6725ec0aba5e" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="3e25d2a8-4b9e-4bb3-a8db-7b7c8e954d65" class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark">eGPU</gs> on a 5k <gs id="68176b1a-d112-4e13-8709-14268b5b3158" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="3e25d2a8-4b9e-4bb3-a8db-7b7c8e954d65" class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark">imac</gs>, the only way it would work if I would use it on an external monitor. So wanted to ask, is this just a dedicated GPU issue? Or thunderbolt 2 doesn't have enough bandwidth. And if so, in any future retina <gs id="c645a1db-706c-4120-bed8-56ca120dc65e" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="2cf6e055-f3ed-4acf-8e3d-30a169b77a06" class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark">imac</gs>with thunderbolt 3, will it work with the internal screen? I'm interested in adding some boost to gaming and editing and if it works with thunderbolt 3 I can wait a year to get the next one.

Hey guys, I've just found this thread and I wanted to ask a question. I Understand that you only use the eGPU only on an external monitor, but I wanted to ask, is this just a dedicated GPU issue? Or thunderbolt 2 doesn't have enough bandwindth? And if so, in any future retina imac with thunderbolt 3, will it work with the internal screen? I'm interested in adding some boost to gaming and editing.
