I would like to somehow connect my graphics card to my laptop with a cable so that when I play games, for example, the graphics card does all the rendering, etc. Is there a solution for this? I can open the laptop but it doesn't work. The tool is always permanently integrated and soldered on. Even the cpu. That means I can't install any additional hardware. Connect maximum with cable. What could i do there? Lg
It is possible to operate cards externally.
However, through the indirect way you lose my research after 15-20% performance.
And then you have to ask yourself the question of sense and nonsense, if you need an external graphics card, then you rarely have 32 GB of RAM and a very good processor in the laptop, which justifies this effort and the additional costs
That works depending on the laptop. I call myself eGPU and run it myself. But only makes sense up to certain GPUs (up to 1050ti depending on the CPU).
Just come on the laptop that you have on what comes into question.

Not exactly cheap pleasure.
As long as you have a Thunderbolt 3 port,
this can be solved with the help of an external graphics card such as http://geizhals.at/1820924. A graphics card of your choice (PCI-e only) is then required and you are ready to rock.
Without this connection, something like an eGPU will unfortunately not be feasible. Although many laptops have IO extensions that could make it possible.
An external card usually only has a maximum loss of around 10%. In addition, it is seldom the case that you need a modern processor location, since most games are not very CPU-intensive. It becomes particularly interesting with rendering such as in Blender, because there it makes no difference in performance
