The enclosure will work with any new Windows PCs with Thunderbolt, like the recently-announced Thinkpad Edge S430.
GUS II EXTERNAL GPU ENCLOSURE DRIVERS
Since there currently aren't any drivers that support the case, MSI tricked Windows in the demo to make the OS think that the GPU was connected over PCI Express. We find it unlikely that the latter will ever happen, but should AMD or Nvidia support the device you'll be able to use it in Windows.
GUS II EXTERNAL GPU ENCLOSURE DRIVER
We were told that it will support 10 Gbps of throughput per channel.īefore you start dreaming of a MacBook Air that converts into a powerhouse machine, you need to know that this will require driver support from AMD, Nvidia and Apple.
These enclosures have the option of interfacing with a laptop over ExpressCard34 (), or a desktop with a provided expansion card. For 330, it comes packed with external connectivity in the form of five USB. DynapowerUSA makes these TurboBox external PCIe enclosures, and one of their models, the NA211A, has a self-contained 220W power supply and a double-sized slot space for potentially a graphics card. The device can take any AMD or Nvidia graphics card so long as it doesn't need more than 150W of power and, of course, it needs to fit within the casing. The Mantiz MZ-03 Saturn Pro II is an external GPU enclosure with all the bells and whistles at a reasonable price. Today MSI may have made your dreams come true - it's just demoed its GUS II external GPU enclosure that connects over Thunderbolt. I only see one advantage of the alienware 13 is that can run the with graphics amplifier on screen like that Optimus functionality Nvidia eGPUs here in our site, and the MSI seems likely the opposite where a monitor or tv is required to project the display outwards from the external gpu solution, additionally the laptop screen needs to be. Anandtech sees the W700 as the start of huge potential primarily because it can consolidate tablet, notebook and desktop functionality (storage, eGPU) in one unit. Instead of plugging external storage and GPU into a notebook (and maybe keyboard, monitor, and mouse), why not use a normal desktop for all of that and plug the notebook into the desktop only to. If you're an Apple user, you may have looked longingly at the VAIO Z and its external power media dock that connects via Light Peak. Yes, using it's Thunderbolt port + Thunderbolt eGPU enclosure such as MSI GUS-II or BPlus TH05.
