Blocker35 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Hi guys, bit of a rookie to the whole EGPU scene. Currently I have: - MacBook Pro 2015 13inch (3.1GHz Core i7 16GB RAM) - Razer X Core - Apple TB3 to TB2 Adapter - TB2 Cable (Cable Matters) - 23inch AOC External Monitor I am wonder about what graphics card to get to run X-Plane11 with high graphic settings? I have purgewrangler set up and ready to use with an AMD graphics card, but am also open to the idea of an Nvidia graphics card. Any advice appreciated. I did not buy a Windows PC as I need a Mac for various other things and wanted an all-in-one laptop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerteN88 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Thunderbolt 2 is 20Gb/s so it's not very high speed. for my experience 1070ti/1080 max out thunderbolt 3 so i wouldn't go any higher than a gtx 960/970/1050. Looking the raccomended specs i don't think you will be able to run x-plane11 at max settings but i think you will be able to run it at medium settings with a good framerate using one of the mentioned card. I don't know about amd but the equivalent should do the work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
