has anybody used an eGPU on Mac

has anybody had any experience with an eGPU and Unity3D on the Mac, from what i can see there is a lot of sites showing how you can make them be detected fine but i am wondering if Unity will run fine with them as the GPU in my rMBP and iMac are pants, new machines but just not up to the task

I wouldn’t suggest it at this point. I had connected my Macbook to a eGPU running High Sierra, and in Windows via Boot Camp, but I still had to hack to manually install the drivers. Some games would run, but others, including Unity, did not.

I took another path and built a desktop to which I connect remotely on my Macbook. Very little latency even using an IDE.

I made a write-up of my findings in my vlog: The Laptop and the Tower: connect your laptop to a powerful PC for VR - YouTube
