Cause you can run an external GPU on a laptop depending on what ports you have.

2018-01-29 18:41:57 UTC  

i looked into it when it died

2018-01-29 18:42:04 UTC  

I've always watned to try it, I just don't have the right shit.

2018-01-29 18:42:07 UTC  

it would be a waste of money, the bottleneck would be huge

2018-01-29 18:42:09 UTC  

that's a horrible idea tbh

2018-01-29 18:42:34 UTC  

I would only suggest it if you have USB-C/Thunderbolt

2018-01-29 18:42:38 UTC  

it wasnt that big a deal, i had bought 3 of these

2018-01-29 18:42:47 UTC  

problem was i had 2 of htem in pawn and lost them there

2018-01-29 18:42:53 UTC  

7 grand in laptops

2018-01-29 18:42:57 UTC  

200 bux

2018-01-29 18:42:59 UTC  

rip

2018-01-29 18:43:05 UTC  

The shit works apparently

2018-01-29 18:43:09 UTC  

it works

2018-01-29 18:43:10 UTC  

but not well

2018-01-29 18:43:15 UTC  

your loading times will be shit

2018-01-29 18:43:21 UTC  

high resources games will still lag

2018-01-29 18:43:27 UTC  

if i had gotten the newer model than mine it would be viable because they had a port built on just for this kind of stuff

2018-01-29 18:43:40 UTC  

Buffering will be very slow due to the bottleneck

2018-01-29 18:44:00 UTC  

Unless you've got a bad ass CPU

2018-01-29 18:44:08 UTC  

i do but stillt he shaders

2018-01-29 18:44:12 UTC  

the CPU can't fix your GPU being slow

2018-01-29 18:44:23 UTC  

USB 3.0 can only run up to a certain speed

2018-01-29 18:44:39 UTC  

thats why thunderbolt/usb c 3.1ish is used

2018-01-29 18:44:40 UTC  

doesn't matter if you had a thousand parallel eGPUs

2018-01-29 18:45:00 UTC  

i dont have that reichs

2018-01-29 18:45:06 UTC  

i like that finally usb is becoming a true universal port

2018-01-29 18:45:11 UTC  

if i had waited a few months i probably owuld have

2018-01-29 18:45:31 UTC  

And if your laptop has thunderbolt, that means you've paid too much for it.

2018-01-29 18:45:36 UTC  

That just came out recently lol

2018-01-29 18:45:41 UTC  

you can connect pretty much anything on it now like displays, gpus, hard drives, printers, more and more ports

2018-01-29 18:45:53 UTC  

i have a bunch of 200 gb SSD disks

2018-01-29 18:46:17 UTC  

tbh the best rig is a lan party rig.

2018-01-29 18:46:37 UTC  

Fucking Glow in the dark cia niggers are trying to dox me

2018-01-29 18:46:38 UTC  

something small with a handle but you can still fit a full size graphics card

2018-01-29 18:46:47 UTC  

I don't have shit that's fancy on my laptop

2018-01-29 18:46:54 UTC  

my laptop was pretty beastly until it broke

2018-01-29 18:46:57 UTC  

i blame my ex

2018-01-29 18:47:01 UTC  

I want to do external gpu so bad
