So I'm forced to bring my little Surface Pro 2 with its dual-core processor at 1.6 - 2.4(?) GHz speed along with me to college, and I wanted to
ask

A) is it worth it to get an external gpu in general

B) is it worth it to try and find an external gpu that will support ONE usb 3.0 or two usb 2.0

and C) is it worth it to get an external gpu with this processor in the first place

 

I've watched some videos on it but usually I see things like "thunderbolt connections" or one where two USB type-c connections were involved. So I was just wondering

 

Note: I put this in general because it traverses many different topics :/

Shipping sucks

True, but better to pick one of them than just give up ;)

Moved to Graphics Cards.

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.
