eGPU with 2013 Mac Pro & Thunderbolt 2

#eGPU #2013MacPro #RX5700XT
Can you use an eGPU with the 2013 Mac Pro (or other Thunderbolt 2 Apple Macs), and is it worth it?

In Part 1, I cover the different options, show the setup process using purge-wrangler, and run some benchmarks in Unigine Valley. I compare performance with the MacBook Pro 13" using the same eGPU, and throw in a benchmark from a Windows PC with an identical RX5700XT GPU.

This is one of those videos that when you get to the end you think "was that really almost 30 minutes it felt like 5?!" Very interesting content.

I'm a proud owner of a Mantiz Venus eGPU enclosure myself. Works beautifully for older Mac Minis. Beats the hell out of an integrated Intel gpu.

I just got it to work. It sat on my desk like paper weight and I thought it was working. 2009 Mac pro Titan Ridge. Great video.

I bought one of these a few years back. So glad I took advantage of the return window.
It's only real plus point for me was how quiet it was.
Be selling my Razer soon.

Thank you so much for taking the time of doing this video, I may be giving up on buying it as I need more speed on rendering of FCPX.

Great Video. That was a burning question for me... Thanks.

I'm very late to your channel, but you did a superb job explaining this!
I've finally got my 6, 1 running Monterey, and I'm not sure an eGPU would "play nice" with that OS, but I'll stay tuned! Thank you so much for this super-clear explanation. 😁

Thank you so SO much for a clear and detailed explanation. I’ve been through so many articles that made no sense to me until I found your channel. I really want to play Divinity 2 with my MacBook Pro 2013 Retina, but I was confused about anything related to eGPUs that I’d given up. It all gets a bit confusing as I am not too tech savvy when it comes to this, but your explanation has made me understand a bit more in terms of options that I have. Appreciate your breakdown and content! Hello from NY 🌞

Hi Buddy Just finally arrived my blackmagic egpu and I did the purge-wrangler, works perfectly and now I can edit with music videos in 4k with better quality view in FCPX with no lag and indeed my LG Monitor look more amazing than before. I want to say thank you for your tutorial. Cheers 🥂 and have a great weekend 👍👍👍

I am really enjoying these videos. I just purchased a 3.5 ghz Mac Pro this week, and these vids are so useful to me!

[prowowfanaticwow]

Thanks a lot for this video . It really is very helpful for me ( MacBook Pro Late 2014, ThunderBolt 2).

11:33 So even the Black Magic eGPU, you still have to do the PurgeWrangler?

Thank you for making this marvellous video!
I have a 2011 mac mini & Razer Core X with RX580, and it works after following your video using official adapter and tb2 cable 👍🏼👍🏼
