@@beefstew8886 yes no need to disable if the laptop have already a separate GPU built in inside... to allow the external GPU to act as the main GPU i saw people disable it at their bios but if your laptop running at Processor i-GPU no need to disable it
You need to leave the BIOS option to Switching (or hybrid) if you want the laptop screen to work. Consider disabling the onboard GPU in device manager instead, not sure if that would work, but that is the approach. Also, the WiFi m.2 slot is on a 2x slot. If the laptop has an m.2 meant for an SSD then that will be 4x and should perform better.
I have a question. There is a usb type c port on my laptop and I want to know if it is possible to add a external gpu through that instead of the PCIe x slot. Also i don’t want to add an external gpu case as they are too expensive
i have a question, is it possible to use an adapter msata pcie to sata and then using dvd rom caddy connect it to dvd rom drive? will it work or will it be faster? i personally assembled and used an external gpu( beast kit and same method) for my acer laptop it worked but a few months later i encountered problem with the battery and cpu base clock stock at 0.38ghz. i fixed this issue by returning my laptop to its original form and resetting the bios.
Very important. The 4-pin connector should go to the motherboard 4-pin connector, and NOT the 4-pin from the 20+4 main connector. The motherboard 4-pin connector is sometimes packaged as a 4+4 connector, just uncouple it to get what you need. This setup works with mini Pc boxes, but you need to use the WIFI port, not the m.2 port. Make sure you have the NGFF cable or use a mini-PCIe to NGFF adapter cable.
4:35 this is because, the egpu has to run through the laptops native graphics before displaying. While the external gpu does most of the heavy lifting it still gets bottlenecked
using the pci-e card you get only 2.5gb/s of throughput and if you use the internal display it will half that even more...therefore the throughput is horrible if using the internal display...the best way is to use the eGPU's display output to a monitor and set Windows to Projector mode.
Thanks for the video.. If you mate this concept, with ideas from other RUclipsrs (Cat and Andrew is a good example) about turning trashed laptops into custom desktops, you can get a decent, sustainable rig.
This slot is neither of those. It is actually the older mini pcie used for wifi cards, and carries only x1 lanes… not optimal, but still better than integrated graphics
4:40 You will Probably already have found out but, You can go to Display settings, Scroll down and look for a small text that says graphics settings, click on it and then you have to choose the game or Programm you want to use the Gpu with. click on browse and find the game application in your files. Then it takes u back to the settings screen where you can see the program you chose. click on it and click on options and choose the gtx 560. Now it should always use the gtx 560 for that specific program. and u will probably be able to set it back to switching gpu mode in the bios, beacause then everything on your laptop screen is rendered with gt 640m except for the games, im not sure though. but doing so does add a bit off delay. Everything your gtx 560 is doing has to travel back through the pcie port to the gt 640m and then to the laptop screen so i myself would use a seperate monitor anyway.
The reason your GPU was not used was cause usually there is a display cable running from your GPU to your screen, so right now your external GPU can communicate with the internal hard ware but not your display as there is nothing connecting your GPU to it.
@@xpoz9634 Well , I have not find anyone talking about damages in the laptop or the GPU by using this method, because that gadget is prepared for that kind of use. in my experience, i used a mining riser GPU, and curiously i didn't need to use any kind of config on my laptop; as soon as i connect the RX470 trough the riser mining gadget, it was inmidiately recongnized by the laptop and i used it almost normally, and i say "almost" because the power supply i used was not enough powerful to feed the energy requeriments of the RX470, adn because my CPU gave bootleneck to the GPS, so, i can use the RX470 to its medium capabilities.

For everyone that are wondering if this works, it does I tried it before but it has a problem The graphic card that is connected does not work as it's supposed to be The performance is not constant and frame drops happen I have tried the same card with my laptop and then I installed it on my PC and there was a big difference between the two I think this information is very important for anyone who wants to try this method Note: The difference between the two is the stuttering and the frame drops both of them reached higher frame rates than the laptop's
It's because of the CPU... In the case open you may boost your cpu slight up so the laptop isn't CPU bound and also since you are on a laptop you also may wanna upgrade your ram if its some what about 4-8gigs coz that's where the most stutters come from.

probably the reason it doesn't work with the laptop screen is because most laptop,including yours that you showed in the video has A HDMI OUT port,it sends out video output.you cannot send signal the other way using hdmi technology.what you can do is use the igpu while not opening any apps,and set the app you want to use the gpu on to high performance(windows detect dedicated gpu as high performance mode and iglu as power saving mode)then whenever you open the app you set to high performance,boom.magic.this is common with laptops that have a mobile/full sized dedicated gpu in them,LTT used this trick to game on a mining gpu that has no outputs.
This is dead wrong. If you look closer, you'd see that nothing is connected to the laptops HDMI out port. However, an adapter is used to attach an HDMI cable to the laptops PCIe port. Obviously this is not a standard HDMI connection because the laptop is interfacing with the card using Vulkan or DirectX APIs, which do not utilize HDMI technology for CPU GPU communication. In this case, it is possible for video to be sent back into the pc through the HDMI cable due to the special implementation
I will only need it to render 3D animation and maybe speed up my drawing software . God this is still a batter option then just to buy a complete new laptop. And I am broke . Because all of my money did go to dealing with this laptop how ironic.
I have a 4gb Geforce gtx 1050 ti as an EGPU on an HP x360 convertible laptop... I disabled intel tuning, there is no over clock but it does turboboost to 4.1ghz at about 70°c with Throttlestop, I use MSI Afterburner for Gpu maximum overclock and temps stay around 65°c, I also swapped the 256gb ssd for a 1tb ssd, and the 8gb ram for 16gb. I currently play Warzone, Black Ops Cold War, Apex, Gta V, and more. My point is, this is a great idea!
#1 set your bios back to gpu switching allowed #2 goto device manager & disable the dedicated gpu. #3 nvidia control panel and make sure it is using the extrenal gpu for physx and world program settings. now it should work for gaming on the laptops screen
Thanks so much for the video, mate! I wanna get something like this for my HP EliteBook 8560p, but I'm not too sure about how to go about doing things.
his laptop is too damn old to hAve thunderbolt interface that is why he is using the PCIE x4 because its the only way his laptop would support his graphic card.
So kapag ang unit mo ay integrated gpu lang talaga (Intel HD) nothing to worry about disabled anything, matic na made-detect nalang nya yung external gpu.
I wish there was a tech through which we could us external processor. I am stuck with my i3 processor on dell inspiron. And I wish I could upgrade it. But unfortunately, it is hard soldered on the motherboard 😭😭😭
You need external GPU and Monitor as laptop has not any hdmi-in port. To view in laptop screen, You need to remove your laptop screen and attach to hdmi controller board. This is like DIY works and the reason why I dropped the idea to add external GPU.
You will Probably already have found out but, You can go to Display settings, Scroll down and look for a small text that says graphics settings, click on it and then you have to choose the game or Programm you want to use the Gpu with. click on browse and find the game application in your files.

you know i love it how people always state things like "i can't afford space for a desktop and i don't want to deal with all the extra cables just to get into pc gaming, a laptop for me is perfect", yet to get a graphics card to work with a laptop, you still need a desktop power supply, and the pci express slot that comes with that dock, not only that but unless you have an ethernet cable or an extra usb wifi card, you cannot get back online, because that's how the graphics card is connecting and communicating to your laptop computer, and a project like this cannot be exactly "cheap" either all this hardware have to be purchased including the graphics card and every time you want to use the laptop on the go you have to disconnect all those cables and reinstall the wifi card, its doable but for people like me overtime this kind of strategy would become a headache.
use windows 8.1 OS to enable use of own laptop screen as display from the GPU, windows 7 and 10 will NOT allow you to use laptop screen as display . . however using external monitor screen is always advisable.
Buy a proper desktop is better than doing this, laptop cpu limit the gpu performance anyway... And You only have 50-50 chance to get this work. If things goes worst, you might ending up with broken laptop aka motherboard faulty
Hello po sir, can i ask po if i can attach the same setup as yours if i have integrated graphics? i have System Manufacturer: TOSHIBA Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3230M CPU @2.60GHz (4CPUs) ~ 2.60GHz (RAM): 8.00GB (7.90GB Usable) System Type: 64-Bit OS, x64-Based Processor
Yes. I just did it with mine. Laptop screen doesn't work when the eGPU is connected and turned on though, so you will need to connect a monitor to the eGPU you choose to use.
I stumled on this video just now...well, good work man, but it was old news when you released it. No disrespect though, some people just don't follow Linus, Jay...OK, that being said, you can find solution for your problem with no picture on laptop screen at Linuse's channel...basically they explain how to make your other card give signal through integrated graphics output in Windows 10. It's the same feature which sets what card should be used with what application if you had your dedicated card left turned on. Nvm me, just go thorough Linus Tech Tips and you'll find solution there. Good video, keep posting, knowledge is power 👍💪
I currently having an error for installing the driver... exclamation mark with a triangle... and one more thing...I have 6gb of ram of my laptop and when I turn it on, my laptop just blank screen... and when I took off the 4gb ram and its has only 2gb ram left..it has a display... GTX 1050 variants won't work as its architecture is incompatibe>>> how about GTX 750 Ti?
you can also install a new gpu if you have a laptop with a gpu make sure that you put enoguh ram at high mhz and low latency if you dont want spikes every 2 seconds
I wanted to do that with my laptop that has Intel HD 4400 but sadly the GPU that I have is GTX 1050 luckily I've been informed that it won't work before wasting my money. Thanks.
So we need an external monitor too instead of using Laptops monitor? I mean instead of using external Gpu is it possible to change our dedicated card and upgrade it?so we can still use the Laptops monitor. Thanks, any expert answer will appreciate it 👍
I don't understand this concept. I mean if you buy a GPU, and a power supply, and a special adapter, the rest of the components can buy from the price of the laptop. Its more dangerous than helpful. But also I know people are eager to do anything for performance on low cost...
This is too much, for me. Too much space needed, for a laptop. Nice to know though. Kills the purpose of a laptop. Could be useful if your old dedicated GPU dies in your laptop. I see an issue of bottlenecks because using older laptops with dedicated desktop GPU seems like it only makes sense. It will still run though. 6:19 appears the 5 60 has better pixel/vertex shader model versions, or better DX just from the color difference.
Just search how to turn your laptop into a desktop, then search for an external gpu stand. Good for gaming on a budget, I have an old Asus Rog Stryx gathering dust with a fooked GPU, I was just searching for tips to convert it for fun since an old Origin external gpu case I have required a firewire port which it didn't have.
The thumbnail is a bit clickbait It shows that you just plug in an hdmi to the gpu then to laptop and youre all done, no need for extra items needed But when you watch its way too different

probably the reason it doesn't work with the laptop screen is because most laptop,including yours that you showed in the video has A HDMI OUT port,it sends out video output.you cannot send signal the other way using hdmi technology.what you can do is use the igpu while not opening any apps,and set the app you want to use the gpu on to high performance(windows detect dedicated gpu as high performance mode and iglu as power saving mode)then whenever you open the app you set to high performance,boom.magic.this is common with laptops that have a mobile/full sized dedicated gpu in them,LTT used this trick to game on a mining gpu that has no outputs.
This is dead wrong. If you look closer, you'd see that nothing is connected to the laptops HDMI out port. However, an adapter is used to attach an HDMI cable to the laptops PCIe port. Obviously this is not a standard HDMI connection because the laptop is interfacing with the card using Vulkan or DirectX APIs, which do not utilize HDMI technology for CPU GPU communication. In this case, it is possible for video to be sent back into the pc through the HDMI cable due to the special implementation
Maybe Turn off integrated Graphic (if you can) so that it switch to other Graphic/Card.
I will only need it to render 3D animation and maybe speed up my drawing software .
God this is still a batter option then just to buy a complete new laptop.
And I am broke .
Because all of my money did go to dealing with this laptop how ironic.
I have a 4gb Geforce gtx 1050 ti as an EGPU on an HP x360 convertible laptop... I disabled intel tuning, there is no over clock but it does turboboost to 4.1ghz at about 70°c with Throttlestop, I use MSI Afterburner for Gpu maximum overclock and temps stay around 65°c, I also swapped the 256gb ssd for a 1tb ssd, and the 8gb ram for 16gb. I currently play Warzone, Black Ops Cold War, Apex, Gta V, and more. My point is, this is a great idea!
I have the same laptop and gpu! I'm planning to do it aswell
Does it need external monitor?
#1 set your bios back to gpu switching allowed
#2 goto device manager & disable the dedicated gpu.
#3 nvidia control panel and make sure it is using the extrenal gpu for physx and world program settings.
now it should work for gaming on the laptops screen
Just a question bro, I'm planning to connect my egpu to m.2 nvme PCIe 3.0, is there any configuration needed to make it work?
Thanks so much for the video, mate! I wanna get something like this for my HP EliteBook 8560p, but I'm not too sure about how to go about doing things.
Blayze Deville yeah i have this machine
I have the 8560w and I'm looking into the same thing. If you end up finding any info or do it yourself, I'd like to hear the update
same model i have . i am also planning to install egpu
In order to make the external GPU work on your laptop screen you need to be able to use a thunderbolt type c connection.
his laptop is too damn old to hAve thunderbolt interface that is why he is using the PCIE x4 because its the only way his laptop would support his graphic card.
@@michaeljaen5261 yeah I know I was saying it would work only if he had a thunderbolt port. 🙂
@@coachnutt61 for sure if it is a newer model of laptop that supports thunderbolt, but in older laptop only PCIE and Express card sure it will work.
@@coachnutt61 how to know if my laptop has a thunderbolt port?
@@_quixote it will have to have a Intel CPU in it and what looks like a USB c connection but it'll have a lightning bolt above it.
My house suddenly blew up, but you told me in your disclaimer. So no worries, you're good. 🤣
My current GPU is an Intel HD 3000, I will definitely get a boost from this.
UR processor need to be good too,or else you wouldn't get much fps difference
@@ok-yn6sd I do, I got a intel i7 2670qm, never goes above 30% usage
When I saw the through my laptop. it just suddenly ran and jumped to our swimming pool😂🤣😂🤣
Now you can cook eggs while gaming, Thanks Hungrychad!
So kapag ang unit mo ay integrated gpu lang talaga (Intel HD) nothing to worry about disabled anything, matic na made-detect nalang nya yung external gpu.
Linus don't support 3rd party modifications and hacking and he showed it doesn't work .but you did this,you are one of the hidden pro.
i like how i have the same cooling pad as him lmfao
I think you ran into this issue because your laptop's display was connected to the cpu's integrated graphics and not the dedicated graphics card
1:19 love the analogy HAHAHAHA!
Congratulations, your laptop is now on life support!
When you have a desktop with a 2080s.. and no laptop... I think I'm addicted to PC parts 😂
I wish there was a tech through which we could us external processor. I am stuck with my i3 processor on dell inspiron. And I wish I could upgrade it. But unfortunately, it is hard soldered on the motherboard 😭😭😭
do you use an ssd? if no, upgrade it this minute!
cool! This is cyberpunk looks!
Hello from almost 2024, idk why I got this recommended but it was nice to see tho :D
Wow nasa recommendation ko na. Im not even subbed. Haha. Grats chad. -bucsit
I'm really like a free college here Because here he gives in detail ... oh yeah one thing whether VGA like GT1030 is still working or not thx
You need external GPU and Monitor as laptop has not any hdmi-in port. To view in laptop screen, You need to remove your laptop screen and attach to hdmi controller board. This is like DIY works and the reason why I dropped the idea to add external GPU.
You will Probably already have found out but, You can go to Display settings, Scroll down and look for a small text that says graphics settings, click on it and then you have to choose the game or Programm you want to use the Gpu with. click on browse and find the game application in your files. Then it takes u back to the settings screen where you can see the program you chose. click on it and click on options and choose the gtx 560. Now it should always use the gtx 560 for that specific program. and u will probably be able to set it back to switching gpu mode in the bios, beacause then everything on your laptop screen is rendered with gt 640m except for the games, im not sure though. but doing so does add a bit off delay. Everything your gtx 560 is doing has to travel back through the pcie port to the gt 640m and then to the laptop screen so i myself would use a seperate monitor anyway.
The thumbnail is pointless but still.. I got hooked.
00:21 why you plug hdmi cabble ?
For clickbait.
@@uzitalpur95 you dumb?
you know i love it how people always state things like "i can't afford space for a desktop and i don't want to deal with all the extra cables just to get into pc gaming, a laptop for me is perfect", yet to get a graphics card to work with a laptop, you still need a desktop power supply, and the pci express slot that comes with that dock, not only that but unless you have an ethernet cable or an extra usb wifi card, you cannot get back online, because that's how the graphics card is connecting and communicating to your laptop computer, and a project like this cannot be exactly "cheap" either all this hardware have to be purchased including the graphics card and every time you want to use the laptop on the go you have to disconnect all those cables and reinstall the wifi card, its doable but for people like me overtime this kind of strategy would become a headache.
You really just need to buy a desktop lol or a laptop with decent graphics card.
Many of us have spare parts bruh
@@universityrepairFL not all of us have spare parts it depends on where you are and how much things cost.
The most important part was disclaimer !
use windows 8.1 OS to enable use of own laptop screen as display from the GPU, windows 7 and 10 will NOT allow you to use laptop screen as display . . however using external monitor screen is always advisable.
Just use an hdmi ghost
I'd rather sell my old laptop and buy food than trying to attach a gpu onto it 😂
can you use 100% gpu usage on this?
Was the thumbnail a successful way to connect it?
Buy a proper desktop is better than doing this, laptop cpu limit the gpu performance anyway... And You only have 50-50 chance to get this work. If things goes worst, you might ending up with broken laptop aka motherboard faulty
Hello po sir, can i ask po if i can attach the same setup as yours if i have integrated graphics? i have

Yes. I just did it with mine. Laptop screen doesn't work when the eGPU is connected and turned on though, so you will need to connect a monitor to the eGPU you choose to use.
@hungrychad, bro i just want to ask if i use GTX 1070 GPU for my Sony Vaio (2014 version) will possibly work?
😂
I stumled on this video just now...well, good work man, but it was old news when you released it. No disrespect though, some people just don't follow Linus, Jay...OK, that being said, you can find solution for your problem with no picture on laptop screen at Linuse's channel...basically they explain how to make your other card give signal through integrated graphics output in Windows 10. It's the same feature which sets what card should be used with what application if you had your dedicated card left turned on.
Nvm me, just go thorough Linus Tech Tips and you'll find solution there. Good video, keep posting, knowledge is power 👍💪
Nice vídeo. Regards from Brasil.
Does it read the full power of gpu in that way ?
I currently having an error for installing the driver... exclamation mark with a triangle...
and one more thing...I have 6gb of ram of my laptop and when I turn it on, my laptop just blank screen... and when I took off the 4gb ram and its has only 2gb ram left..it has a display...
GTX 1050 variants won't work as its architecture is incompatibe>>> how about GTX 750 Ti?
Ram incompatibility
@@danielbrixvillanueva but when its only igpu its booting.
@@innocentedetei4095 ram is incompatible then
@@kyokairo7954 will it depends what brand of ram?
@@innocentedetei4095 Not really. 4gb is considered low nowadays. I'd suggest upgrading to 8gb of ram.
I still have 2 years warranty. I wont tell the shop that I did this when my laptop blows up.
you can also install a new gpu if you have a laptop with a gpu make sure that you put enoguh ram at high mhz and low latency if you dont want spikes every 2 seconds
gotta say... That thumbnail was a bit of a clickbait-ish approach XD
But does it run crysis?
I wanted to do that with my laptop that has Intel HD 4400 but sadly the GPU that I have is GTX 1050 luckily I've been informed that it won't work before wasting my money. Thanks.
I feel bad for you well at least you learnt a lesson
So we need an external monitor too instead of using Laptops monitor? I mean instead of using external Gpu is it possible to change our dedicated card and upgrade it?so we can still use the Laptops monitor. Thanks, any expert answer will appreciate it 👍
It is dangerous
Can blow up your house !!!!!
😂😂
If your pc had thunderbolt connection, is it possible to connect from hdmi to directly to laptop's thunderbolt?
Not all type c port is thunderbolt so its hard to say. Just double check your laptop model on the internet to see if its type c or thunderbolt
Don't u need a cooling thingy ?
what for
Only youtuber who said , "please like the video if you like, if you don't, dislike it."
cant you just plug it into the ethernet cabel port?
Yes, that's an alternative.
Good luck for those laptops who gets broke after trying this because of whitelisting
4:47 That is normal, especially with this kind of setup. And also if you do not plug in your monitor cable to the GPU, not the motherboard ports.
I don't understand this concept. I mean if you buy a GPU, and a power supply, and a special adapter, the rest of the components can buy from the price of the laptop. Its more dangerous than helpful. But also I know people are eager to do anything for performance on low cost...
cheap?
step 2: spend over 2000 dollars
its usual. It applies also to desktop. If you plug a monitor into the gpu, it automatically disables the intergrated gpu
thanks for this pal! ^_^
You can use a device that tricks ur gpu into think there is a monitor or you can connect a monitor
The only thing they added to the EGPU was the GTX 560..... You should use at least the RTX 2060.
Nice , is good to know how to impruve a laptop gaming capacity,tKS FOR THE VIDEO!!!
you don't want it running thru laptop to begin with. you are running an external gpu, stay with external monitor. better performance...
Nice upload. Subscribed.
i tried this on my Toshiba satellite c80 laptop and an amd rx280x runs smooth but when i tried Nvidia god dang too many issues , great vid 👍👍
This is too much, for me. Too much space needed, for a laptop. Nice to know though. Kills the purpose of a laptop. Could be useful if your old dedicated GPU dies in your laptop. I see an issue of bottlenecks because using older laptops with dedicated desktop GPU seems like it only makes sense. It will still run though.
6:19 appears the 5 60 has better pixel/vertex shader model versions, or better DX just from the color difference.
Just search how to turn your laptop into a desktop, then search for an external gpu stand. Good for gaming on a budget, I have an old Asus Rog Stryx gathering dust with a fooked GPU, I was just searching for tips to convert it for fun since an old Origin external gpu case I have required a firewire port which it didn't have.
My name is Chad & I stay hungry as well. I get it bro... the Chad is great
The thumbnail is a bit clickbait
It shows that you just plug in an hdmi to the gpu then to laptop and youre all done, no need for extra items needed
But when you watch its way too different
