just finished my eGPU setup, HP2560p with ATI HD5670
@@newheavyion Why setting that video for TH-cam Kids?
Anyway with Core i7 QM, it is a wasted Performance because the CPU is still faster than the GPU.
@@ClayWheeler it is a fun project, not a serious gaming setup. I will try same others GPUs up to a R9 285 in the 2560p. Im just in the mood to experiment with older hardware i had in boxes for years now. Im also trying an eGPU setup on an Inspiron 1525 but with Lubuntu
@@newheavyion experiment with Genshin Impact and grow your channel lol
@@ClayWheeler Not sure what you want to tell me with that answer.....
Man, this is one of the most well visualized and rehearsed tutorial videos I've watched
yea
man this video presentation is the best so far in installing, dismantling and actually troubleshooting. if this is taken with a better camera.. that would be darn awesome.... thanks for making this video!!
commenting to help your algorithm, but i am LOVING the presentation of this video, it didnt leave me googling extra crap for hours at end trying to figure out details that was left out because everything was explained in details.
man, this tutorial is very detailed. Well done brother
New Video is up. It talks about a Specific Game, Honkai Impact 3 PC version

Great video. Thanks all :)
U are really great man. For the first time ive seen a video with this much of details and great explanations. U really saved my life. Because of this i will become ur subscriber. Hopefully u can make a lot of useful videos like this in the future.
Thanks.. you explain this very well. I'm getting more confident now to try this out with my old laptop
Did it work fine with you?
Thx man ;) And cool music btw.
It's called mortals by wario
Bro, I just want to say: THANK YOU SO MUCH. Your video have everything a person need to know, It's sooo clear. I'm so grateful. Have a nice day, hope u doing well.
Thanks. Sorry I haven't been active lately. Because I want to make another External GPU tutorial but with newer Laptop. Having trouble finding the good Laptop.
@@ClayWheeler I understand your situation... Here in Brazil everything is too overpriced... Do to Covid and the fu**ing bad governation of our president Bolsonaro.
@@ClayWheeler And just for your knowledge, I did eGPU and everything is working fine. Mine is 2017 Dell Inspiron 14 7460, core i5 7200u with dGPU 940MX. My eGPU is a GTX 960 2gb with NGFF EXP GDC 8.5c . Everything is running so much better after I did this eGPU.
I just needed to DISABLE the 940mx on Device Manager. Cause If I uninstall the drivers, the Windows automatically detects the dGPU, enables It and turns It the "master" GPU again. So I need to disable and then install the GTX 960 newer drivers. Everythin is working fine.
The only problem is th 2gb VRAM of my 960... Some games like Assassins Creed or Cyberpunk 2077 needs at least 3gb... That's why I'm thinking to upgrade the eGPU for gtx 970 (even If it is too powerful for my CPU) or gtx 1060 3gb. I dont know If will be a good trade change the 960 2gb for the 960 4gb...
What do you think? Anyway, today a friend with 1060 6gb will bring his gpu to me, for a test... But I think the 970 will garantee a good compatibility
@@mauriciocajazeira228 heyy there man, i know it's been a while after you post this comment 😅
I'm planning to use EXP GDC V8.5 or 8.4 too. On your comment, said that you need to disable the 940mx driver right? So, if you install your GTX960 with the 940mx's driver disabled, does that mean that you're overwriting 940mx driver with your gtx960?
What if you need to go portable (unplugs all of the cables and back to original state again), does the 940mx still works normally? Does the GTX 960 driver support the 940MX driver too so you wont have to reinstall the 940mx driver again?
I really appriciate your future replies, Thanks in advance btw🙏
Lately I was interesting about upgrading my hp i5 laptop which has 4gb ram, 2gb UHD intel graphics to a gaming one. Then I was looking for how to connect externel GPU videos on TH-cam and now Im confident to proceed with. This video is the best so far I have noticed. Video must be going trending yo😏
Cool.
What's your Laptop model? Including CPU full name
@@ClayWheeler my laptop is Dell latitude e5440
Core i7-4600U CPU 2.10GHz 2.70GHz
Do you think it can work with me
THANK YOU SO, SOOO MUCH ! Your video have everything a person need to know, It's so clear.💓
Thank you so much for the thorough explanations and guide! Really helpful in the future for when I upgrade my 2012 Acer laptop. I have one question though, is my laptop PCI-E the same as yours? (simply put, are laptops PCI-E connector 1x?)
Also is 250w psu enough for gtx 960?
great video explaining the process. Thanks for suggesting the DIY egpu 1.3 to me, but i am still stuck as i cant even load up the menu of the 1.3 correctly. Nando has been giving me a few ways to try but still no luck, really frustrated. i think i am going to give up if still get it configured in a few days.
did you got it to work? what laptop and gpu btw
Most clear explaination 👍👍👍
man, thank you so much for this tutorial that was the best i have watched for real
Weird, I have Vega 8 and R625 PGU in my laptop and I connected RX 5500 XT into it and didn't have to uninstall any drivers, I just downloaded the Radeon software and it showed me 3 GPUs installed.
Well, this video is talking about Old Laptops.
Vega 8 isn't particularly Old.
The other proof is that Asus ROG Flow X13 using the same Driver for both GTX 1650 and eGPU RTX 3080.
Awesome 👍✨
Very clear steps, thanks
SIR YOU ARE MY HERO.WE HAVE THE EXACT SAME LAPTOP AND I WAS HAVING DOUBTS ABT THE EXP GDC THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU😭😭
Nice video👍, thk man
I STILL USE THAT SAME LAPTOP TO WATCH TV USING HDMI, I STILL CAN PLAY GAMES THAT SUITABLE FOR THAT LAPTOP, ITS REALLY COOL TO SEE YOU UPGRADE IT, BUT TO SACRIFICE WIFI JUST NOT FOR ME, BUT THANKS FOR THE VIDEO, ITS REALLY FUN AND INFORMATIVE
Check my other Videos. It can Play several Online Games just fine.
@@ClayWheeler thank you, okay I'll check it out
You can use a usb network adapter
I was so excited for this kind of thing back when ExpressCard started being a thing, and then it didn't happen until no one was including a socket for it anymore.
Not everyone even thinking about adding external GPU for Laptop back then.
Let alone utilizing ExpressCard slot itself.
No official ExpressCard external GPU dock ever existed. Beast EXP GDC is unofficial device made by a small company somewhere in Chína, yet they still managed to supply the demand in online shopping like AliExpress.
However I still prefer the NGFF or M.2 NVMe eGPU. It's crazy faster than ExpressCard
@@ClayWheeler I'm just glad my new laptop has a gtx 1650 built in so i don't need to think about adding one 😂
@@Jackpkmn bruh, if I have a Laptop with GTX 1650, I'd still want to use eGPU like M.2 NVMe.
Just like Asus ROG Flow X13 which has GTX 1650 and RTX 3080 eGPU as a Bundled item.
@@ClayWheeler Yeah but then i couldn't use my Intel 665p 1TB
@Dhfa 10 I mean it's pretty clear, were talking about adding external GPUs to laptops.
Super
nice music too
Very nice
wow that's awesome me too I'm going to do the same
hello i have hp g4 1212tx laptop which vga can i use?the purpose is to work with lumion or enscape software..
That Laptop almost the same to my Laptop. But I don't recommend to use it with Lumion.
Lumion needs at least 4 Cores 4 Threads 4 Logical CPU. Any CPU below that is not recommended. So instead of Core i5 2430M with 2 Cores 4 Threads 4 Logical CPU, you need to upgrade to Core i7 3630QM, which is 4 Cores 8 Threads 8 Logical CPU.
Lumion needs high CPU instead of GPU. As for the GPU, anything is possible.
At that point I recommend building a cheap Desktop PC instead of using Laptop with External GPU like this.
well i have bought exp gdc for external graphics & got scam fake vga gtx730 from alixpress vga not detected damnn....not working hopefully if i got msi/genuine one will work..
OK! Good Good!
mantap bro, layak di beri jempol ini. isi video nya rinci.
👍👍👍
how about rendering software like enscape lumion vray does it work smoothly?
if the Software Can use more GPU instead of CPU, it can.
For example, Adobe Premiere Pro 2021 can use 100% GPU and only use 15% CPU

Hello, thanks for all the information and the very cool video. Where can I get information about the newer versions of EXP GDC? E.g. for the V8.4d and the V8.5c? I would be particularly interested in the compatibility with the graphics cards.
I would also be interested in which homepage you shop on 😉
Just read the Pinned comment of this video.
And I bought this from AliExpress.
I have acer e5-574-39cl , 8GB ram, Intel core i3 6100U, onboard Intel HD Graphics 520....
I have expgdc v.8 and I want to know , what are the compaitable graphic cards that can be use without bottleneck to my laptop (I already check bottleneck calculater and it shows the GTX760 , 750 like etc)....
Hello, just want to know if it will work on a Toshiba Satellite E55t with i5 4200U integrated graphics?
It's great that this tells you what type of graphics card is needed but HOW DO WE KNOW FROM ALL THE CARDS SHOWN what to get it's all just numbers letters etc ARE THERE MODEL LETTERS OR NUMBERS how do we know we are ordering the CORRECT ONE unless some people are into this then it's easy but for those of us that are totally new or have no idea what do we look for how do we choose the best ones for our machines LOTS OF VIDEOS ARE LIKE THIS ONE WITH NO EXPLANATION IN SIMPLE WAYS or even backwards compatible etc hope this video is IMPROVED ON AND SETS THE EXAMPLE FOR OTHERS TO FOLLOW SUIT
Well, when I tell in the Video by "Up To" it means all GPU Cards model of that current Gen and all Previous Generations of GPUs.
With EXP GDC V8.5c you can still use GTX 980 for sure.
hello, did you check your graphic card TDP? mine is MSI GTX750Ti OC 2 GB should be around 60 W TDP (according to the website), but the maximum power it draws only around 35 Watt using hwinfo. and when I checked at the GPU-Z at the sensors tab, power consumption of 98.9% TDP is only 38.1 W. I think mine is EXP GDC v 8.4. thank you.
Most likely your info is about the laptop's GPU , not the external one since you use an external power supply that can't be read by your laptop's sensors.
Hey how can I fix this my EGPU fan is working and when I connected it on HDMI it has no display and my laptop monitor is on supposedly it is working when the EGPU is working it worked yesterday but when I opened it today it doesn't work anymore help please

Hi @Claywheeler, thanks for the video. How can I get my graphics card detected in Hp Zbook 15 laptop. Couldn't find the internal network adapter boot in my bios
I got same eGPU and rx590, but GPU doesn't pops up in device manager. And I got no internal network adapter boot in boot options. 😢
*I fixed it, my psu wasn't power on. But everytime I'm trying to use GPU my system bsod, I got no idea how to fix that. 😅
hey! Can you explain step by step how to diasble the dedicated GPU and PCI controllers? I got a GTX960m and wanna use a GTX1660 super but can't get it to work it show's up in device managed but still getting error code 43 and now it's 31 again, saw a commend below that i have to disable controller for it and such but no idea how, i'm on a Lenovo Y700 that's upgraded a bit with 32GB ram and it has a i7 6700HQ and a GTX960m a 2TB SSD
I absolutely cant get this to work on multiple laptops . The manual says to turn off Internal Network adapter option in bios but it wont work in either setting. One of my laptops is wery similiar like yours but nope wont work. Tested From win7 - 8.1 to 10.Gpus Gt660,1070,270x,5770. with expresscard or mini PCIE cables. I have the 8.5c beast. The only time it worked was 2yrs ago on wery old laptop and 7600Gt but sutch speed is irelevant.
Does your notebook have a dedicated board? I want to put an egpu on my but the notebook has a dedicated board nvs 4200 of 512mb if I put the egpu, will it work??
Good sir, I want to ask you this question if my Acer Aspire E5-573-5638 can use this method?
Is it possible to use a FireWire board with this adapter? I would like to use an FireWire audio interface as my laptop don't have an IEEE 1394 out port.

Tried to get rtx 2060 work with same set up windows has detected rtx 2060 also installed driver but for some reason all games i got still runs on intel hd gpu i also nvdia control panel wont open anyone had same issues
Bro, you can use hdmi dummy plug to don't be necessary using external display. But also without egpu box there is a mess on the table lol.
HDMI dummy will create extreme Bottleneck because the cable isn't supposed to be Two-Way .
Unless the Laptop support HDMI input.
hey mate is it possible for me to actually have a 2 different driver (Nvidia is the laptop's gpu ) and the
amd one is the egpu from the dock. Like Everytime i dont use the amd's egpu can i just switch to the nvidia one without causing any problem??
That's exactly what this video is talking about.
I can switch to my Radeon GPU whenever NVidia is disconnected (unplugged)
@@ClayWheeler ahh i see the point there, dont have to uninstall the mobile gpu driver, im asking wether its doable or not..m and since it could then really good to know that... anyway thx for the reply mate good video.

What is the Laptop model name?
And by the way, Actually you can still use the same NVidia card even if your Laptop already have NVidia dGPU like GT 620m.
You need to Clean Uninstall of NVidia GT 620M and then Completely Disable it from Device Manager. And then you can use NVidia GTX 1650.
If you're using Radeon RX 560 you will need special PSU because RX 560 don't have PCIe power connector. The PSU you need is "Dell DA 220 Watt Brick PSU" usually only cost $20.
Here's the example of using Special PSU for RX 560 equivalent

From the BIOS? Did you Change the BIOS like I do in this video?
Hi man, i've Acer Aspire 3 A315-41 with Ryzen 5 2500U (Radeon Vega 8 APU 1 GB) But when, i see the website of EXP GDC Compatibility, i didn't see my laptop in the list. I want to connect it with GTX 16 Series like this video, but how do i connect it, if my laptop isn't in the list of compatibility?
Actually you can, all Laptops can.
First of all, you will be limited with 2 Options for External GPU. WiFi slot OR M.2 NVMe slot.
The First Option is by WiFi slot, which without a doubt, you have NGFF slot. With NGFF you have 8Gbps Bandwidth (while this video is just 2.5Gbps) So you can use EXP GDC NGFF.
Second Option is M.2 NVMe. To make sure about this, please open your Laptop manually, and check if the Motherboard have Two M.2 NVMe slots and make sure it is written "NVMe" or "PCIe" on its PCB board near the M.2 slot.
If it says "M.2" or "SSD" then you cannot use eGPU with this slot. If it says "NVMe" or "PCIe" then you can use that slot for eGPU. So you can buy EXP GDC V9.0b NVMe.
Search keywords on AliExpress is "Beast EXP GDC"
With M.2 NVMe, you can have 16Gbps bandwidth if it is X2 Lanes, OR 32Gbps bandwidth if it is X4 Lanes.
Can I put a egpu on HP notebook with Intel i3 5th gen processor?
there a prombom with my pc so i put my asus GTX 1050 on the thing and it turns on normaly but it just stays on the loading screen for hours and it hasent changed please help me im on a 2020 hp laptop
if you are using GTX 1050, please use Dell DA Brick 220 Watt Power Supply.
I have a video about eGPU Troubleshooting.
The adapter from EXP GDC don't have enough power to give 75 Watt to the GPU
You could also get a USB wifi adapter
Base on my experience not all laptop is compatible.. and not all laptop are compatible with your card.. mine i have a Lenovo Thinkpad T460s and Nvidia cards doesn't work or compatible you may use an AMD cards .. works for me.. 😊
Try to record a Video of your Laptop with NGFF, and then I will pin your Video to the pinned comment.
So more people can get reference to NGFF
Hi man
I do not know what to do :(
Maybe you can have an idea... The only way that the egpu works is to connect the wifi card to the pci port and turn on the laptop, then turn it off and connect the egpu, that way it works perfectly, the problem is that when connecting an external device such as a pendrive or audio cable the notebook restarts and no longer works.
So for it to reconnect I have to repeat the process of connecting wifi card etc.

Good question.
Step 1. You may need to change the Power Plan solution from Control Panel. It is either Power Saving, Balanced, or High Performance mode. Change it to High Performance mode.
Step 2. Go to Device Manager, Scroll down to "System", expand it, scroll down to "High Precision Event Timer" right click on it, and Disable.
Step 3. After doing step 1&2 Shutdown the Laptop, make sure the eGPU cable inserted properly. And plug the USB pendrive or Audio jack before turning On the Laptop.
Step 4. After turning On the Laptop, try to safely remove hardware of that USB pendrive, and then, put it back in. Try to see what happens.
When you're on High Performance Mode, try to Plug the Laptop charger.
Note: if the problem still the same, it is very likely the DRIED Up Thermal Paste. I have to admit that my Laptop in this video has never been reapplied the Thermal Paste for 8 years. I only added the Thermal Paste when waiting ordering the eGPU Online. But I didn't put it in this video.

Sir we have the same laptop..Can i used rx 580? What driver i need to instal ?
Probably a dumb question, but at around 7:57 - is the cable connecting the laptop to the monitor just an hdmi cable?
Yes
Hello, I loved your video, and I have something similar. It's the same version of the EXP GDC v8.5c.
I have an HP ProBook 4440s laptop, a 400W ATX power supply, and an RX580 8GB graphics card. I connect everything correctly, but when I try to start, the laptop simply doesn't boot. The screen remains black, the LEDs light up, the graphics card powers on, but the computer doesn't start at all. Is there something wrong with the compatibility?
With mPCIe version?
Try to unplug the eGPU mPCIe-HDMI cable from the dock, but let the mPCIe stay connected to the Laptop.
And then just boot.
If the boot is successful, try to uninstall the AMD Radeon HD 7650M using DDU Display Driver Uninstaller.
And then restart, go to BIOS.
Check for something similar to this video about booting from network adapter boot.
After that, replug the HDMI to eGPU dock. Try to boot again.
If it fails, you might have accidentally flipped the Physical switch (or maybe the seller has toggled the switch) on the eGPU dock.
If it hard to reach, use needle to move the switch
Its hard to look for dell 200 watts ac adapter
hi man i wanted to use egpu for my asus laptop i3 4030u 1.9ghz+820m 1gb do you think its gonna work?
Best video I’ve seen on this process thanks homie hope you mining crypto as well !
Hey brother !!!! I have a question, does every graphic card is compatible with this egpu dock or any/some graphics card have incompatibility issues with it ....????
More likely the Laptop itself rather than Graphics Card.
Check out pinned comment for range of Compatible Graphics Card, even RTX 3070 is possible.
But if the Laptop has poor compatibility or a driver that's no longer updated by the company itself, then the Graphics Card might not be detected at all.
Hi, this Is an excellent video, congratulations. I have a doubt ¿Can I have connected a mouse and a keyboard with external gpu? Did you play with an external keyboard?

hi,my laptop hp pavilion dv6. i7 2630 2.0Ghz. is this work?
Hi, my laptop doesnt actually have any wifi and bluetooth pre installed (i use dongle for those) , can i still use this ? thanks !
Uhhh. Idk, that will be hard to recommend.
May I ask something do you use dell brick 220w i. Is it better to use it or use psu and Is there any bad effects of we use dell brick to our GPU
Dell Brick 220W PSU is really Good.
It can handle up to RTX 2060 just fine.
So basically the Dell 220W Brick PSU is connected directly to the eGPU 8 pins input. And then from the 6 pins Output on the side is enough to handle Mid Range GPU up to RTX 2060 with single 8 Pins PCIe power connector -- or any GPU with Single 8 Pins PCIe power connector in general.
See my Troubleshooting video about how to Plug Dell DA Brick PSU.

how do u find out which pci slot i have
@Clay Wheeler
You must open your Laptop by yourself to check it.
I'm specifically interested in buying the Elgato 4K60 Pro Mk.2 for my future gaming desktop (predominantly for its multifeed feature), but I don't have the financial means yet to put the latter together. Hence I wondered, if I were to buy said capture card now, could I maybe already put it to use with my older laptop using an EXP GDC (Mini PCI-E Version)? My laptop is an Asus R556LA-XX1875T, and up until now I've managed to use it for window capturing at 720p60fps just fine. Obviously I would use the capture card to capture and stream at lower resolutions and/or framerates, until it can be integrated in the proper gaming rig...
Wait really? Are you sure it is using Mini PCIe version? As far as I know Intel Core i5 from 2015 with IntelHD 5500 is using NGFF WiFi socket.
I could be wrong. But anyway more or less yeah you can use EXP GDC eGPU with any GPU be it NVidia or AMD RX is fine.
That's why I tell anyone who watch this video to Open Your Laptop before deciding to buy eGPU.
@@ClayWheeler Oh right, I'll definitely open my laptop to double check, thanks. But yeah, assuming it is using Mini PCIe, I'm talking about using a PCIe capture card with the EXP GDC, not a GPU. Could you perhaps answer on that? :)
@@horgoththerelentless261 the capture card in my mind is using the portable one. For one reason: you are using an Old Laptop.
The possible Capture Card is from GPU card HDMI output to the Capture Card Passthru. So the scenario look like this: Laptop->eGPU->GPU->Capture Card->Hard Drive & External Monitor.
The Hard Drive here is HDD External with USB 3.0 to write the captured video.
Elgato Capture Card that you mentioned is using PCIe lanes on Desktop Motherboard to capture visual activity. You need another type of Capture Card.
I will do a quick search for this kind of Capture Card
@@horgoththerelentless261 the Keywords search for this kind of Capture Card is:
Capture Card Passthrough for Laptop. Not sure if Elgato have this version or not
@@ClayWheeler I'm not sure what you all meant but at least I'm aware that Elgato mentions PCIe lanes directly on the Desktop Motherboard, however it's already been shown to work on external PCIe slots as well (though these are Thunderbolt eGPU enclosures): th-cam.com/video/1ChBo65TMz0/w-d-xo.html
Only thing is, my laptop has no Thunderbolt port and I also don't find those enclosures' pricetags worth it. Also I have no interest in buying a dedicated external capture card from Elgato or any other company, I'm specifically interested in the 4K60 Pro Mk.2 for its multifeed feature (i.e. it automatically records and stores a copy of your game capture on your pc's HDD while you're streaming).
Hello.sir we have the same laptop.and specs, can.i use rx 580.video card.?
How to flash my bios. It whitlisting my exp gdc dock. And my laptop wont boot. Wifi whitelisting is nightmare. I am using lenevo thinkpad t430u.

Hi I have a hp probook 430 g5 laptop i5 8250u
I was thinking if I can install egpu to it…
It has mini pcie
Which graphics card would be best for it ( I’m planning of getting old GTX 1060 or GTX 1650 or rtx 2060 anyone of these ) what do u say…..
and…. should I buy exp gdc from aliexpress and want version should it be
Hope u reply…..
I'm actually surprised that HP Probook Laptop is using Mini PCIe version.
Because HP Probook with Core i5 8250U is from the year 2018, and Mini PCIe discontinued after 2014. Are you sure it is not using NGFF instead?
But anyway apparently even the version V8.0 can handle RTX 3070 if you see the pinned Comment of the video.
This is HP Probook 430 G5 disassembly video. And if you pause between 00:45 to 00:47 you will see it is using NGFF th-cam.com/video/rsO6yy_Y-9w/w-d-xo.html
@@ClayWheeler oh it’s using ngff thank you for letting me know
hello i had setup up epgu with the exp gdc ngff version with gtx 1060 3gb.So everytime i try to boot up my laptop wouldnt boot up but the gpu psu fan would be spinning for a few seconds but they would stop and i would get these annyoying beep sounds.Can you help me fix this error and btw my laptop is dell inspiron 14 5442.Thank you
Option 1) Put back the WiFi Adapter like original placement. Start the Laptop once. And then put it to Sleep instead of Shutdown. SLEEP not SHUTDOWN. And then take off WiFi adapter, and Plug the eGPU like usual.
Option 2) is it using Windows 10? Please do a Full Shutdown just like Windows 7. Start-Run command or CMD
Shutdown.exe /s /f /t 1
And then put back the eGPU.
Option 3) Reinstall Laptop with Windows 7.
@@ClayWheeler yes i am using windows 10 and thanks for the reply
Sir can you help me. I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T460s and gtx1650 ddr6 . Already set it up with exp gdc v8.5c ngff connector and installed the gpu drivers. But there's no Nvidia control panel even in my right click.. do you have a fix in it?
Is the GTX 1650 Detected in Device Manager?
Yes its detected but when i install the driver i keep getting code 43 error windows stopping it from running..
I already done everything even manually install the latest driver and the older drivers. And try all the fix in the internet but it didn't work.. but i finally got the problem Lenovo Thinkpad T460s for a reason it doesn't work in Nvidia cards but on my AMD RX 5600XT it works like a charm!! 😊 No errors no problems smooth installation!
@@alvindiaz3895 you should have said earlier for Error43.
Because I have the Fix file for Error43
My laptop type HP is an AMD A-4 5000 APU with Radeon(TM) HD Graphics (4 CPU), 1.5Ghz, 8gb ram, the default gpu processor is AMD Radeon HD 8330 with 512mb vram, can I use an external GPU using a GTX 1050TI 4gb with GDC Beast EXP version 8.5 help?
Yeah I also have Lenovo Laptop with AMD A5 APU, and it didn't work with any kind of external GPU.
Perhaps all of old AMD Laptops before Ryzen wasn't optimized for External Graphics Card at all.
So far only old Intel Laptops works with external GPU
@@ClayWheeler if the A4 5000 uses a GTX 750TI 2gb, does it still not work?
@@itusermyid no, I mean the External GPU Docking itself is not detected. Regardless of the Graphics Card.
With my HP Core i5, the external GPU docking is Detected even without any Graphics card attached to it.
@@ClayWheeler possible problem with error code 43 or 12 if on an A5 laptop?
Mate I have a Acer aspire e 14 ((i5-5200u-HD Graphics 5500)) and I was planning on putting a 750ti or maybe a 1050ti on it. Do you think it will work?
There are several points to pay attention here
First, Core i5 5200U might be using NGFF WiFi slot. So you need to get EXP GDC NGFF.
Example of assembly here
th-cam.com/video/pKv436sOrNo/w-d-xo.html
Secondly, 750ti or 1050ti is a 75 Watt GPU category. You need different approach to feed Power to the eGPU board because the White Cable Adapter that Bridge from PSU to eGPU Actually doesn't give a stable 75 Watt.
Check my Latest eGPU Troubleshooting video regarding this one.
Hi, my laptop is amd a10 5750, the egpu is gt730. The egpu work and show on the monitor, but i got the loop: acpi bios error at start boot. I do many thing (update bios, reinstall win10pro, ...) but no lucky. But everything work well on kali linux 😅. Can you give me suggestions, thanks.
That sounds new to me.
I've never heard this Problem.
Is it using Mini PCIe?
@@ClayWheeler yes, mini pcie. 🤔
Does you laptop battery still work? I heard that some laptops were incompatible with this set up because of battery problems.
During Gaming, I suggest setting up the Power config to "High Performance" this will surely eats battery faster. However this is 8 years old battery. The maximum discharge of this Laptop in my video is just 45 minutes for watching videos or 1.5 hour Typing documents in MsWord.
I could easily buy a new battery which is just $5 here from HP service center.
That's why I always plug the battery to AC Charger.
My 2010 hp laptop has white list thats why it doesnt boot up when I connect the exp gdc, I tried to connect it by doing sleep mode first then that when I connect the mpcie of my exp gdc through the wifi slot and it detects it and I installed the drivers
But the damn problem is that my external monitor doesnt detect it and the nvidia control panel is not working even if I forcefully select it it does nothing
Also my bios is shit it doesnt have the options you showed, probably because its too old or because hp is such a shitty laptop company locking some options on some of their hp laptop
@@mab3667 Woah, that's too old for eGPU setup. You better off with just building a cheap Desktop PC. Or if you're Lucky, you can search someone's Laptop from your family members for eGPU.
Wait bro could I buy a 3070 and connect it to my laptop and mine that way???
Mining? I don't know
Hello, I don't know which one to pick, expresscard or pcie? I have Lenovo Thinkpad E520 with i5 2nd gen and I'm thinking of buying gt1030. Which one should I buy and will gt1030 work with this external dock?
Just open it up and check the slot type of the wifi card. Also I would suggest to instead get a rx 500 series because unlike the gt 1030 they will be supported by the new amd FSR technology. You can get a rx 560 for about 140$ right now on Ebay.
@@craigthebrute9678 thanks!
hi man i have a same laptop but with different specs as amd a4 processor and having 6 gb of ram of model name as hp pavillion g6 1318 ax So i need a help for making it with 1050ti
AMD Processor before Ryzen is not recommended to use External GPU. Unless you are a DIY Enthusiast.
It is very difficult to configure Old Laptop with AMD A series CPU. Like it cannot detect External GPU most of time.
I know some people made it Possible to work with External GPU, and it involves Soldering the PCI slot on the Motherboard.
Not worth it if you're a Beginner with AMD A series CPU.
AMD Ryzen on the other hand, is very easy to use External GPU
I was wondering..since the beast has a hdmi to mini pcie, can u use an hdmi to usb c for thunderbolt connection or is there more tonit to get the beast to be a thunderbolt
Thunderbolt needs its own Chipset on the eGPU dock Module (just like any other Thunderbolt External GPU on the Market)
Beast EXP GDC doesn't sell Thunderbolt eGPU.
The only reason Thunderbolt eGPU is not Cheap -- around $200 or more -- is because the Company who makes every Thunderbolt eGPU must pay Royalty for every unit being made. Yes I know Intel gave away the Rights patent for Thunderbolt interface, but apparently it doesn't apply to TB3. Only TB4 and forward. And YET, The only Thunderbolt eGPU that already exists on the market is TB3 based, no TB4 existed yet -- in theory TB4 should be Cheaper.
But if you're looking for the Cheapest Thunderbolt eGPU, you might want to search on Chinese Online Shopping websites like Alibaba or AliExpress.
You might want to check ADT-Link R43SG TB3.
@@ClayWheeler thankyou!
it worth if i have amd 6100m GPU, will i get more fps ?
can a v8.5c or a v8.0 mini PCIe work with a gtx 1060 6gb? because I cannot find any v8.4d on ebay.
V8.0 apparently works just fine with RTX 3070.
See pinned comment
But if you can find V8.5c just take that one instead.
