Hi everybody, i'm reading abouth eGPU from few months cause i decided to upgrade my Macbook4,1:
i'm totally new to egpu.. but if i've understood something here it is:
i need to open my mac and remove the airport card to use the 1X configuration on my mPCIe connector. (i have no express card slot)
set up PE4H/L +PM3N+any videocard... (maybe something OOB)
the point is: i wrote to hwtools support and they answered me that my BIOS may be not compatible..
but many pages ago i read about some of you who with a macbook pro get it working..
my question is: if i'm on a Core2Duo 2.1ghz 2GB Ram, fully supported 64bit OS, WIN7 and MountainLion (boots with kernel 64bit) what kind of configuration should i choose to get it working at least on BootCamp?
i don't know if my motherboard (signed by apple, i suppose) will give me problems not recognizing through the Airport's mPCIe the eGPU system!
thanks

I would really like to buy the software and all the hardware system, but first i've got 3 questions:
Would DIYeGPU-Setup-110b5 work on my MacBook4,1?
is there any problem if I connect my eGPU to the mPCIe instead of a thunderbolt? (I know i'll get only 1.x connection, but still better than intel 965 chipset)
I have Win7 and Boot Camp 3.1 Patch, would a clean UEFI installation give me certainty to have less problems?
Which ATI/Nvidia should i buy, if i'm searching for best compatibility and good quality/price? (play batman arkham city is my aim...)
