'CopprLink' destroys every eGPU standard in new test, achieves near-native-level performance with an RTX 5090 — setup requires $2,300 worth of additional hardware

The new CopprLink eGPU standard outperforms existing options, achieving near-native performance with an RTX 5090 GPU. This setup allows for a full-fat PCIe 5.0 x16 connection, providing significant bandwidth. However, the required hardware, including the HighPoint's RocketStor 8631D eGPU enclosure and adapter card, totals $2,300 on top of the GPU cost. While the performance is impressive, the high cost currently limits CopprLink's accessibility to mainstream consumers, making it more suitable for corporate use.

Apple approves drivers that let AMD and Nvidia eGPUs run on Mac — software designed for AI, though, and not built for gaming

Apple has approved drivers for Nvidia eGPUs to work on Mac devices, particularly for AI processing, not gaming. Tiny Corp, known for its AI accelerator tinybox, faced driver issues with AMD but now offers high-end GPUs like the red v2 and green v2 Blackwell. The company plans to launch the exabox in 2027 with 720 RDNA5 AT0 XL GPUs for powerful computing. The custom driver from Tiny Corp is tailored for AI LLMs, not gaming, making it a significant advancement for AI work on Macs.

Apple MacBook successfully runs an Nvidia GPU through USB4 using an external GPU docking station - Tiny Corp's coding wizardry unlocks Mac+Nvidia magic

TinyCorp has developed drivers to enable Nvidia RTX 30, 40, and 50 series GPUs to function on MacBooks via external GPU docking stations using USB4/Thunderbolt 4. These drivers are specifically for AI development and do not provide display functionality on MacBooks. The setup involves disabling SIP, installing specific drivers, and testing with provided commands. TinyCorp's prior experience with AMD GPUs on USB3 likely facilitated this Nvidia support on ARM-based MacBooks. The use of USB4/Thunderbolt 4, with native PCIe support, simplifies the process of connecting external GPUs to M-series MacBooks.
