Hey can someone tell is it fine to use gtx 580 3gb version with i7-640m processor of course the gpu will be egpu for the laptop since this laptop has extra pcie- port. How much bottleneck can be seen here.
acer aspire 5740g it also has ati mobility radeon 512mb ddr3 dedicated graphics. i will disable this once egpu is put.Which laptop specifically?
Yeah you're going to get a bottleneck, biggest bottleneck will be the GPU dock itself, the PCI-E cord is so long that it is a main bottleneck. Nothing you can do about that when it comes to all GPU docks.
but you might still get a bottleneck from the CPU too, so I'd say you'll loose around 40% GPU performance at most.
Plz suggest me a gpu with less bottleneck for i7-640m.The mpcie slot is only an x1 slot...
Oh yeah i wont be playing AAA titles i mean i will only play games which were released till 2014 max. Will that be fine?a GTX580 uses twice the power of the GTX1050 (300 watts vs. 150), and gives 10-20% lower frame rates; with slower mobile processors of 9 years ago, I imagine things only go downhill further quickly, unless only playing games from 8-10 years ago...

Cant afford pc right now thats why i was asking about gpu which wont bottleneck much playing games of 10 years old at least till 2013 games.Why not assemble a desktop PC? There's no convenience in using a laptop with an external graphics card. Desktop-level I3 with similar performance costs only $10, and I recently assembled a computer for only $30.
So you have to use external graphics cards, the more high-end graphics cards lose performance.
GTX660 760 950 960 i's not expensive now.
