Greg8642 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I started looking at this last night and and i'm starting to get a better idea of what i need to do, but have a few questions. #1. Am I right in assuming that my E6420 with Nvidia 4200M Graphics will allow me to do the optimus tweak? And what exactly is envolved in doing the optimus tweak? #2. Will this unit work for me http://www.hwtools.net/Adapter/PE4H%20V3.2.html or is there something better? #3. If this unit is not for me and another is, where would i find an enclosure? As i really dont like the idea of the card being out among the elements. Thanks in advance for any assistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khenglish Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 You'll need Tech Inferno Fan's setup program to disable the nvs 4200m to allow optimus. If you want an enclosure, yes you can use what you linked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also are there cheaper options out there for an eGPU set up with an enclosure for my PC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not aware of a cheaper unit which includes an enclosure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg8642 Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 What kind of performance can I expect to get from that setup? I keep reading mixed reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
