Thelatest update to macOS provides support for external graphics card. Apple announced this would hit the OS
last June at WWDC and now it’s finally here. The update allows Mac users to
increase the graphical processing power through an external graphics card
connected through Thunderbolt 3.
Perviously users had
to buy an eGPU dev kit from Apple or employ unofficial means to enable external
graphics cards, which meant Apple wouldn’t bail them out if something happened.
The additional horsepower isn’t needed for general use, but the added graphicscards supercharge Macs for VR, rendering and gaming. Only a handful of eGPUs
are compatible with macOS so choose carefully before adding one to your rig.
The feature comes from
the High Sierra 10.13.4 Combo Update which also adds Business Chat in
Messages, a new iTunes and a super handy feature to Safari in which users can
jump to the right-most open tab by using Command+9.
