I’m traveling right now, but I knew that Nvidia was planning on releasing its Pascal drivers this week. What we found was an encouraging sneak peek at the potential of eGPU setups on the Mac. We plan on testing out the beta drivers more extensively in the future, but for quick testing purposes, we decided to try powering our 13-inch MacBook Pro with the Pascal-based GTX 1050 Ti. It means taking a relatively underpowered computer like the 13-inch 2016 MacBook Pro, and running games at high settings with respectable frame rates. It means that we can now use the latest Nvidia hardware to drive our machines graphically. This release has major implications for legacy Mac Pro, Hackintosh, and eGPU users. These drivers make it possible to use graphics cards from the company’s popular 10-series lineup, which include the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, among other hardware. As we reported earlier this morning, Nvidia has released its long-awaited Pascal beta drivers for the Mac.
