I'm always confused by the bandwidth of TB/TB2 powered eGPU. As most thunderbolt pci-e chassises only have x4 electric connection, if I'm right, they only provide 5Gbps bandwidth. That is no more than a express card connection and much less than TB/TB2 bandwidth. So TB/TB2 is no better than the traditional Express card implementation. Correct me if I'm wrong.
