Hi,
When Thunderbolt was anounced, there had been word of putting eGPU's connected via Thunderbolt.I believe Sony did a dock for a laptop just like that.
But I'm interested in the opposite.
I know motherboards are Thunderbolt enabled now, but to be honest, I don't think the iGPU is capable of driving 2-3 high resolution panels smoothly.
Is there any news about GPU's with Thunderbolt out? I think this can facilitate Eyefinity/NVSurround. One cable out of your pc, daisy-chaining a couple of monitors (+ usb hubs, mics, speakers, webcams...)
But I don't know if PCI-e is able to push 10Gbps up/down x2 + a high end GPU on x16 lanes?
Thanks for your comments.
Regards
