[Not-Miepje]

Hello, I need to upgrade my laptop but i am on a budget. I got a new desktop GTX 1050 Ti on my eyes but i need a external GPU case for it. My budget is €100

I agree with @nobiggieBIG, with that budget you'll have to put one together yourself.

 

Here's a fairly comprehensive guide:

You don't have a Mini PCI-e slot? You mean the wireless card is soldered to the motherboard then?

 

USB would probably seriously bottleneck your card, and I don't know of any USB solutions on the market

Then I'm afraid this is not going to work for you. You'd have to remove the plate from the bottom of your laptop that covers the HDD, RAM and wifi card. Then remove the wifi card and plug the external GPU solution into that slot.

It's not super difficult to do and I don't believe there's any other options.
