Adding an eGPU to your system, not just portable system like MacBook Pro and UltraBook, but also Desktop PC and iMac systems, will give you the performance and compatibility boost that you may otherwise lacked. Technology evolves VERY quickly the last thing you want is for your hardware to suddenly no longer be able to handle the last file and media types. It can support a whole host of Sound Cards, Capture cards, additional processing accelerators and more.

Full access to PCIe upgrade cards without the need of a host PCIe slot, over 40GB/s Thunderbolt 3Īs previously touched on, the Sonnet eGFX Breakaway external Thunderbolt 3 expansion supports more than traditional video cards from the likes of NVIDIA and AMD. The Sonnet Breakaway is portable enough for you to carry in your bag/boot of your car and when you need high-end graphics rendering capabilities, just connect via the Thunderbolt 3 connector and BOOM – you have the raw graphics power from the likes of AMD and NVIDIA at your finger tips for fast and effective deployment (you will need a mains/wall socket though). This is why so many people choose to buy external GPU devices. Their only drawback? They cannot include truly breathtaking graphics hardware because a good GPU requires cooling, fans and raw power to function to its fullest degree.

Designed for those that want to feature heavy operating systems at their finger tips, but want to remain mobile with fast and easy deployment.

The benefits of utilizing an external graphics card chassis for your Mac or Windows system (especially over thunderbolt 3) are three-fold. Meaning that your portable TB3 enabled UltraBook or MacBook will have some SERIOUS firepower at its fingertips! What are the benefits of an external graphic card enclosure? But then, why on earth would you use a beast of an ePCIe like this for low-end cards?! You will be pleased to hear that the Sonnet eGPU supports all the very latest bandwidth intensive video and graphics cards for use with a host Mac or Windows system connected via Thunderbolt 3, such as the AMD Radeon R9 and AMD Radeon RX, as well as the NVIDIA GTX 7 Series, 8 Series and yes, even the 10 Series. With such an emphasis on graphics cards, it is worth mentioning that the Sonnet Breakaway GPU-350W-TB3Z and GPU-550W-TB3 can both support normal, lower spec/demand PCIe card. What does the Sonnet eGFX Breakaway Thunderbolt 3 Graphics Card expansion support? However Sonnet has overcome both of these short falls and finally we have our hands on possibly the most exciting external Graphics Card Expansion device featuring Thunderbolt 3 since the Akitio NODE – however it should be added that where the NODE only supports Windows, the Sonnet Breakaway box supports both Mac and Windows.

1, That an external graphics card enabled PCIe enclosure requires significantly more power than most cards, in the hundreds of Watts! 2, That the Mac based OSX platform has notoriously picky drivers and graphic kernel problems are commonplace. Traditionally graphics cards (especially those released in the last 4 or 5 years) have been power-hungry beasts with the emphasis on supreme performance, They issue has always been the same two. They already have a successful range of external PCIe chassis available spanning Thunderbolt 1 and 2, but they were more classically designed to be smaller, supporting lower end expansion cards. However they went one step further and decided that now was the time for them to really break into the external GPU market. Sonnet are a big, BIG name in the Mac community and it should come as no surprise that when the MacBook Pro was announced last year with the inclusion of the newest 40GB/s Thunderbolt 3 connection over USB-C, that they were already working hard on upgrading their range of external PCIe solutions to take advantage of this new connection’s power and speed. NOW you can connect a Graphics card to your Thunderbolt 3 Mac with the Sonnet eGFX ePCIe Breakaway Box
