Hello, does anyone know the best way to build a GPU enclosure? I don't have the money to spend 400+ canadian dollars on just a enclosure and then a couple hundred on a graphics card. I bought the Razer blade stealth (2017) yesterday and I am in need of a external gpu to play more demanding games. There have been posts on here but they don't really help or answer a completely different question. I need it to have thunderbolt 3 do I can plug it in. Thank you

Look on ebay for a TB3 to PCIe 16x slot, shouldn't be too hard to find. Then you need a power supply. Make a nice box if you care and done

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

You'd need a TB3 to a PCIe x16 slot. On top of that you'd need a separate power supply. I'm also pretty sure TB3 cannot supply 75W to the PCIe slot on the off-chance the video card sucks power from there, so you need the convert to take a PCIe power plug too.

That is all the info I will need, I will check out the gaming box and look at what's on Ebay. Thank you
