diy egpu setup 110b5
I need a more powerful graphics card on my Thinkpad W520 for 3D modeling with high volume data sets and meshes (current graphics card is choppy with the higher volume data sets). Therefore, I need a powerful eGPU setup.
About a year ago i used a W520 with eGPU and i didnt needed the eGPU Setup. I would try to get the PE4L + PSU + Titan or a good GTX780 (there are some good overclocked versions) and test it the normal way. If you get problems you can still buy the eGPU setup if needed.
An eGPU setup is definitely niche and requires a fair bit of money to get started. But for those that just want one system to do it all, value portability, and have the money, an eGPU setup like this is definitely an option.
