Hey there. 

Just set up my system. Running a y510p and connected a gtx 760.  Windows 10. 

Went through all the steps, connected it, everything booted but an error on both the 755 video card and the 760.   (Hadnt installed drivers yet)

downloaded and installed driver + software package from nvidia. Chose option to install everything and to do a clean install.  Restarted and now am getting this screen after typing in my password. 

Any thoughts?

Update:

I made my computer fail to start 4 times and it loaded a restore point.  Then tried a different driver. Same thing happened again. 

Tried an even older driver that i saw referenced in another forum and it worked.   347.09 which is a windows 8.1 driver but works well on my windows 10 machine. 

Games playing much better even though i am only using a gtx 760. Witcher 3 is finally playable. Doing about medium graphics to keep frame rate decent. Elder scrolls online on medium graphics and i had 50-80 fps so i may improve the graphics to high. 

Gerald,  i am ready to buy one. Can you send me a paypal money request for it?  Sent you a private message with my email address.

Hello, 

I own a Lenovo Y510p with a GT755M SLI configuration (which almost always overheats/crashes for games that DO support them) and i plan to set up an eGPU for it.

I've done a considerable amount of research on the topic but there are still doubts to ascertain before moving on.

 

1) Is it possible for the latest series of GPUs (GTX 1070, GTX 1080) from Nvidia to be used as an eGPU? Those who've already tried it used stuff like the Razer Core or it's other branded equivalent. What I'm looking for is the complete DIY version using the EXP GDC V8 connected to the mPCIE underneath the laptop (the one which the wifi card uses). I am aware of the Thunderbolt tests on Macs but I'm curious about it's performance on the mPCIE. And would it be compatible with the mPCIE adapter? Would it be too "new" for my laptop bought in 2014? 

 

2) If it is possible, would it be worth it? Would the bottle-necking of the mPCIE be enough to diminish its worth? I wouldn't want to go for the GTX 970 or GTX 980 because my long term plan would be to use the GTX 1070 on a desktop set up once I settle down. (I'm a travelling student btw)

 

Thanks in advance.

Did you end up moving forward?  How did it work out?

i have the same laptop so i am curious. 

Ok perfect. Let me figure out the rest of my setup and see what makes sense. 

I am in the US so it would be with the intl shipping.

Hi,

I still have adapters. If you want to buy one pls let me know. I can start a new eBay offer.

I am interested. How much do you charge for them?
