Hi,

No, you can't. Only Intel processor Macs are supported eGPU.

External Graphics Card Hi All- My MacBook Pro has a Graphics Card with the following- Intel Iris Plus Graphics 1536 MB For all the new AI features in Lightroom/Adobe Systems, I need at least 2 GB. Is there an egpu that I could purchase that would allow me to run what I need, or is the only solution an upgrade? Thank you!

eGPU with M2 chips in MacBook Pro 2022 Is there a way I can use a eGPU like in a Razer Core X with an ATI GPU in a MacBook Pro with M2 in the near future? I have a MacBook with an Intel chip and want to upgrade. I need more power for upcoming games like Diablo 4. However, it would be hard to think about an upgrade if I will not be able to play new games on high-res with a MacBook Pro with M2.
