The Akitio Thunder3 PCIe enclosure works as an eGPU over Thunderbolt 3 with the right graphics card. Watch our full tutorial as I turn the pedestrian 13-inch MacBook Pro into a competent GTX 1050 Ti-equipped Windows gaming machine.

Hi Jeef! Thx for video but tell us about this device + Mac OS = work?
+Джордж Вашингтон Pascal cards don’t work with Macs now. You could use a
tiny AMD card, I guess, but you’d be better off sticking with the Node to
avoid a bunch of workarounds.
Wow! This is amazing and it changes things :D
yea lets make the mac better by turning it into a windows machine lol!!!
+Dan only when you want to play games 😀
Unianu Andrei pointless overly expensive way to play PC games
Would this be good for video editing too
Only with Adobe Premiere on Windows.
250 $ for a freakin green plate ?.. wtf
i had hisense and its so bad lol
FIX YOUR IOS APP IT HASN’T BEEN UPDATED IN 2 YEARS YOUR A APPLE CHANNEL LOL
can’t wait till thunderbolt 4. 80GB/s
Does Windows still break the speakers on this MacBook?
Would this work for the MacBook 2016?
Why not use AMD card?
What about if you don’t care about games and just want to enhance eGPU
performance for FCPX/Premier? Would aThunderbolt2 eGPU on a MBP2013 be
enough?
It supposed to work with an adapter but wont be as efficient due to the
lack of bandwidth. Im hoping for this too since if it does work on a
Thunderbolt 2 port it would on a regular Thunderbolt port which is on the
mac I own
Does it support EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 6 GB Single fan? Also, why did you go
for gtx 1050 Ti over gtx 1060 if it is supported ?
If you put a AMD graphics card in there can you run it on macos?
1050Ti is more than adequate for the 13″ model
The indicator shows it is also charging the MBP, is this real or does the
pc just get tricked into showing its charging withou gaining battry power?
just get a goddamn windows laptop with a 1050 ti. God, it will still cost
less.
you could also use the 1070 mini from gigabyte I think
This just shows how bad MacBook graphics is
how about AMD Polaris? running in native Sierra with new 13″ MBPr with
Touch Bar? thanks :)
