Okay, after reading *alot* about connecting an EGPU though an PCIe port, i have found that this is very much possible (correct me if im wrong). The only thing that could ruin that setup would be a lack of bandwidth as the product of an inferioer PCIe slot.
I have found out (via SiSoftware Sandra) that i have multiple PCIe slots in my laptop computer, not surpriseingly. Most of the PCIe slots are 1.0 1x, witch are too slow for running an EGPU though, but there is one 3.0 16x slot that my current internal GPU is running though (information gotten via. SIsoftware Sandra) my hope and question for you guys is, is it possible to simply unplug the IGPU plug in an adapter an connect it to an EGPU?
I also have another GPU in my laptop, for less demanding tasks if that changes anything.
If more information is needed please just say so and i will provide them
(i have pictures of the PCIe but dont know hos to upload them)
