Sorry if it is in the wrong section.īig thanks to Nando4 and others for all the information on this forum, also thanks to Brian from Akitio, I also like to thank my Dog, Pink Floyd for background music and all my neighbors in Toronto who didn't call the cops while I was cutting and making all kind of noises at 3am. Would it help at all, or should I just keep reinstalling everytime?

Ps.: I'm thinking about a solution, what would somehow reset all the caches/temp files of the driver itself when shutting down everything, if there would be a way for doing that, I would try it right away, and post an update. So the question is, did anyone found out a way of booting 100% succesfully without having to reinstall the geforce driver all the time? I mean since my macbook is the most problematic one, even I have a gtx 10x0 series, I should be happy of this method working at least, I'd still love to fasten up the process. +1 : I always use the closest thunderbolt port to the magsafe port. again)Īfter getting to Windows, voila, it's alive.Īdditional 8th step - whenever I turn off my laptop, I have to re-do everything.

Plug in the egpu, boot to boot selection, after the cursor is move-able, power on the egpu, boot to windows (if it would freeze w/ black screen or infinite spinning wheel, force shutdown and do step 6.
Plug the thunderbolt cable back in, boot to windows without egpu connected, open device manager, turn on egpu, after 10 sec hotplug, see it gets recognized, re-install drivers. Turn off mac, shutdown egpu, wait until there's no green light, unplug. Reboot to macOS, turn on egpu, wait around 10 sec, plug it in, run the automate-egpu.sh script, then again in -a mode

Without egpu, boot to windows, uninstall all nVidia drivers So my setup works finally, but with on major flaw: whenever I want to get into "gaming mode" - meaning using the eGPU, my only working solution and method is 100% working, however takes ages. I am keen to hear your thoughts and opinions as to whether the V8.0 Beast will work or whether I should go the Akitio route instead. Does this mean it isn't really compatible? Has anybody on this forum looked into this as a solution to add an eGPU? Or is my only option to pay for the overpriced Akitio Thunder2 from Equip.

I have found videos on projects using this V8.0 Beast with PC laptops but haven't found anything at all with Apple Macs. The option I found in the UK is quite expensive, so I have looked for another possible solution and I found the V8.0 EXP GDC Beast Laptop External Independent Video Card Dock from Banggood (China). This costs around £45.00 and appears to be Mac compatible and connects through the wifi port (I use Ethernet anyway). Unfortunately won't ship to the UK and .uk don't stock them at all.
I live in the UK and it is difficult to find resellers here that aren't overpriced. The cheapest I can find is from a company in Essex called ' Equip' and their price is £246.00 + delivery £6.00. I have looked into the Akitio box some more and it appears to be the best option for using a Macbook Pro with a modern graphics card for gaming. I have a Mid 2012 Macbook Pro (A1286) and came across Dschijn's youtube video about his project, which then lead me to Techinferno.
Hi guys, I am new to the forum but have read many of the interesting posts about Apple eGPU projects.
