2019 Macbook Pro(A1989) + NVIDIA RTX series for running ML models??

Can you guys help me please..


I am planning to get an eGPU to run Deep Learning models on my Macbook pro(macos 14 Sonoma) but very confused on which eGPU to buy.


As per my research(online articles) so far, NVIDIA RTX series are best for my intended usage. But not sure if Mac supports NVIDIA GPU’s.


Any information related to 2019 Macbook pro + a compatible eGPU is highly appreciated.


Thank you

MacBook Pro (2017 – 2020)

Intel is all but gone at Apple.


Here is what Apple supports on Intel: Use an eGPU with your Mac - Apple Support


No RTX support is listed.
