    I’m running a MacMini M1 : is there a way for me to increase GPU cores via a Thunderbolt eGPU chassis and external graphics card ?

    Cheers Dietz,

    sadly on doing some further reading it’s looking like you can’t run an eGPU chassis on the M series processors - I’d really like to be wrong on this ….

    Hi Louis, I'm sorry for the delayed reply. Yes, you're correct. Apple killed Nvidia driver support long ago with the latest Mac OS X updates.

    AMD drivers are still supported somehow for Pro systems, but we don't support it for many reasons. It's all the dead-end, and Apple SoCs now took the Mac market once and for all. Sadly, upgrading your system is the only way to have better performance!
