Hello,


I would like to ask for advice on adding a eGPU to my GTR5 5900HX please.
I have the following questions:

1. Can I use the M.2 SATA3 2280 port to connect eGPU via Occulink (+ adapter)?
(or is it better to use the M.2. NVME for eGPU? If so, where does the NVME SSD and Operating System go?)
2. Currently I have a SATA drive connected to the 2280 port, can I use the M.2 2230 (Wifi)  to connect the SATA drive?
3. Is there anything important I need to know when selecting the eGPU to buy? (for example is it OK to buy NVIDIA over AMD, or are there limitations for speed)
4. Is there a tutorial available for installing eGPU for GTR5 5900HX?

Thank you

Hello there,
It needs the device that turns M.22280 Nvme SSD to PCle 3.0 x16 since it does not have the USB4.0 port.
