Hi everyone,
after I checked on various forums but none seems to address this particular problem I tought I should ask hier and hope someone can help me. I am completely lay in this thing graphic cards
When I connect the eGPU via V.8 beast, it starts running for few seconds and then stops (Fans run and stop but leds stay on).
I first tought it was because the eGPU didn’t get enough power. I then change the Asus which has no additional power supply pins with the MSI GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Gaming 4G. The MSI has an additional 6 pin power supply entry. Nothing changed!
I then connected the eGPU directly to the 12pin-output of the PSU and still nothing changed.
When an additional monitor is connected to the eGPU (HDMI - pin) the computer starts loading and gets stuck on the HP logo, the in-built screen stays black and still nothing changes on the eGPU side.
When I uninstall the AMD radeon graphic card drivers the computer doesn’t recognize the external monitor anymore.

Maybe it is worth mentioning that the led on my V.8 beast dock is green (on many youtube tutorials, it lights red.)
Could it be an incompatibility somewhere, with win 10, or this particular HP laptop? Or maybe the V.8 beast is not functioning properly? Should uninstall the wireless drivers. (I am connecting to internet trough a Wireless adapter stick).
I have no ideas what I should do now . I am stuck in this for almost 2 weeks now. Any help will be very welcome!

-Asus EX-GTX1050TI-4G Gaming Nvidia GeForce
-HP laptop pavilion serial number: Win 10. 64bits, 12gb ram: SN 5CD4091FM4
-MSI GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Gaming 4G, 4GB GDDR5, DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort
-PSU be quiet! Pure Power 10 CM ATX 500W PC Netzteil BN277

Thank you very much :)

ps: english is not my first language, sorry.

The Nvidia 10XX Series presents several problems with EGPU, and when they operate they present horrible performance.
If possible check whether the problem remains with other boards, such as Maxwell series for example.
The Maxwell Series also has an excellent performance in EGPU.

I also update the BIOS already, thinking it was because of that but it changed nothing.
Today, I received another V.8 I order and it is beheaving the same :(
