,Barefeats.com continues to trumpet our success with these cards. Please read the tests and consider clicking on the various links to his vendors. Many have been with us since PowerPC days and deserve support.

So, here is where we are. We have cards 99% ready for nMP 6,1 and Mac Mini 2014, and MBP 2016 TB3 with no touchbar. These machines all work perfectly with our current eGPU cards via EFI. It is likely that other machines with no dGPU will work well. Buying up one of every Mac TB system will take us time & $$$ to support. If you want true and useful eGPU support, help us bring this to the world.

You put our eGPU EFI card in a suitable chassis and connect via TB. You boot and hold "Option" key and see what OS's are available. Choose and boot. While nobody else on the planet has gotten a 6,1 nMP to boot Windows 10 via eGPU, our cards do it with the greatest of ease. It is an awesome VR development platform.

Proven at Barefeats.com. 

So, for 10.13.4 on the above systems, you are able to boot an eGPU without the myriad hacks, cracks, scripts, and mods needed via the "enthusiast community". You just plug the card in and boot. EFI on card works the Win 10 or OSX boot. Displays work and you get to work creating content, not experimenting with code kiddie scripts.

On iMac Pro we understand that external display works but internal will require further development in OSX. (Windows already perfect) If anyone in LA/Hollywood area wishes to help, loan us your iMac Pro and we will continue development on this.

We can do demos of eGPU with nMP 6,1 and working VR in Windows. Did a demo at UCLA last year with perfect results. The nMP 6,1 will be an awesome VR development platform, now.

For the mentioned systems we will have cards for sale by June 15. Pre-sales by June 1. We will likely offer GTX1080Ti first as eGPU. 1080s may be next followed by others.

Please respect our unique work and long hours of development. We have had bad experiences before when our work went into the public realm due to disingenuous folks in the community. We need your support to make this work make sense for us. Prior bad acts delayed advancements for the whole community. (nMP 6,1 Windows support delayed by a year+ due to this)

​Support our work so we can continue to be the leaders in this field. If we are undermined again, we will stop work on this and community as a whole will come to a grinding halt.

Hi, will you have a solution for cards purchased previously from you?

I have a GTX 780 from you guys and a Sonnet breakaway box. The hack-y solutions from places like eGPU.io don't work for my TB3 MBP 13,3 running 10.13.4
