Does anyone know if using an external graphics card via a thunderbolt PCI chassis is supported yet? I know Sonnet and some other manufactures have began selling Thunderbolt to PCI chassis, but was not sure if external cards are supported by Mac OS X yet. Seems like it would be a powerful tool if one wanted to upgrade, say their 13" MBP from the standard intel GPU.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
So will external Thunderbolt GPU work on MacBook Pro Retina under bootcamp? If so, which one will and how?
I want to ask a very similar question, so this seems like the thread to do it.
I already own a Macbook Pro 15" Retina, and an M-Logic MLink Thunderbolt to PCI-E chassis (which we used to get a video input on another project).
I'm not looking for a gaming solution, or a Bootcamp solution - I use After Effects/Premiere on MacOSX.
Is there anything on the market that I can put into the M-Link which would allow me to boost render performance of AE/Premiere...?
Exactly.
That's what I want the expansion chassis for but to use withn DaVinci resolve on my rMBP.
Can't believe this is such a big issue.
And no one on either side is making a statement about why.
Not apple, sonnet, magma etc or Nvidia have an answer accept that there are no tb aware drivers for this purpose.
And all those statements are over a year old.
