External GPU via Thunderbolt

Hello Community,

I've recently seen someone use a Sonnet Thunderbolt expansion Chassis to connect a 780Ti to a MacBook Pro. This gave him good performance, even though the bandwidth is low compared to PCIe 3rd Gen 16x. Around 90-95% of full performance.

Sadly, the chassis costs $1000 O.o

Do you guys know anything about the upcoming Silverstone T004 which should be a lot less expensive and do the same?

 

EDIT: Post 69...
