eGPU Performance

I'm considering to get a product called the EXP GDC which allows me connect a GPU to my computer. My computer is the Gigabyte Brix Pro i5 4570R which is a mini pc which has no regular size PCI-E connectors so my only option is to use the EXP GDC and connect it via the Mini PCI-E connector. Now my question is how much will this effect my performance? The Mini PCI-E is gen 2 and has the bandwidth of a PCI-E x1 of 500MB/s. Also, which of AMD and Nvidia would perform better at this lower bandwidth?

Did you ever figure this out? I'm thinking about grabbing the GTX950 FTW edition and wondering about bottleneck.
