MSI GV72 8RC-044 - EGPU

[wookie.du158202dd]

Hi!
Did someone try to plux external GPU for MSI GV72 series laptops?
According to internet it would be unplug of wifi on micro PCIe or use M.2 port after unplugging HDD. The question is, did you try it or do you have any recomendations?
I would buy some external GPU, like Gforce 5000 series or so.

Thanks for any advice!

Hello,

Mini PCI-E interface will be way too slow at only x1 speed.
If the laptop does have an M.2 Slot that is PCI-E 3.0 and x4 you could be ok with an OCUlink adapter, this would be the better choice but then what about the hdd and OS?

Hi, chatgpt allready sugested it the same so meanwhile the best idea is to jump on SSD slot and plug it to m.2

Don't trust GPT bots too much.
The information is not reliable.
It must be for M.2 SSDs.
HHDs cannot be used with M.2.
Only M.2 SSDs are compatible with M.2.
--------------------------------------
To be precise,
M.2 SSDs are faster than
regular SSDs.
HDDs should be installed in the HDD slot.
M.2 SSDs and HDDs can be used together.
