I have just upgraded my eGPU setup today with GTX 670. Now I can play Witcher 3 on a mix of ultra and high settings.

Planning to upgrade to a GTX 670 too. My Radeon 6850 can't help me too much...
Does it work in 2.0 mode? I have EXP GDC on EC too.

Thanks!

Can you help me with a Firestrike benchmark or Unigine Valley Benchmark?

Thanks!

The benchmark was on internal LCD or external display?

On minimum graphic settings the game runs with 15-20 FPS, on maximum with 8-12. Therefore the game is unplayable.
Hey Kony I hope you still here.

I plan to pimp my T430 with eGPU.
Got on a german Forum the info that ETS2 cause FPS issues with eGPU.

Did you tryed this with external Display and maybe with an other Setting?

Atm I Play with the optimus NVS5400 with low Setting and nice FPS.

My plan is to buy an GTX1060 and try 3 Dispays but if ETS2/ATS cause low FPS this doesn't make sense..

I tried on internal display only, but due to very low performance I guess it will work pretty bad on an external one too. ETS2 is one of those games that are just unplayable on eGPU.
