I have a 2011 MBP ( Quad core i7 @2.2ghz , 8gb ram ddr3, 500 GB @7200rpm and an awful 6750m with 1gb) and i recently saw that there was going to be released an external GPU case for thunderbolt (wich has 10gb/s) www.theverge.com/2012/1/10/2698168/msi-GUS-II-external-thunderbolt-gpu-enclosure
The problem with this case is that it only supports GPU that use 150W or less, and no modern mid-high end gpu ( and im being nice with the high end term here) uses only 150w, so i googled around and found this
http://www.techradar.com/news/compu...ke-an-external-laptop-graphics-adaptor-915616
and this www.hwtools.net/adapter/TH03.html
so, the question is, would it be viable to make this work with a 570gtx for example? if yes would the gtx's performance suffer from the fact it is using that connection?
Thanks in advance for all the answers!
