eGPU not working

Open ultraCAO opened this issue 3 years ago • 17 comments

eGPU doesn't seem to be working or being recognized when plugin or plugin before boot. TB security has been disabled. The eGPU unit does power on when plugged in, and power delivery is working from the eGPU unit. eGPU unit: GPU-550W-TB3 - Sonnet eGFX Breakaway Box with 550W Power Supply GPU in the unit: AMD Radeon Pro W5500

For me thunderbolt is working, I don't have an eGPU for testings, so at this point I can't provide any solutions

Screen Shot 2021-03-14 at 4 16 26 AM it was able to detect the card if I boot with it plugged in but not after boot. but it's not working after boot, it seems like it turns off the card after boot. any idea?

You have to patch and enable thunderbolt 3 on xps 9500. This efi just help you enable transfer data like usb hub, lan port, and external screen

Sure, I'll try it.

Thanks,
