    External gpu laptop

    I'm currently playing Dayz Arma II mod, on my laptop (Lenovo G770, i5 2.5GHz, 8gb ram, radeon hd 6650m 2gb)
    The game works fine, the only problem is the frame rate, I get an average of <20 fps sometimes as low as 10 fps.
    I play MW3 and always get 30-40 fps.

    Is there a good external gpu that would work with my laptop, I heard on PC Per some time ago (can't remember which episode) someone recommend an external gpu.

    What's the best solution for my laptop.

    Re: External gpu laptop

    The best solution for your laptop would be to sell it and build a proper gaming rig or buy a real gaming laptop.

    All of the external GPUs I have seen use thunderbolt, I doubt that that your laptop has a thunderbolt port. Even if it did an external GPU would probably be way too expensive.

    Checkout episode 362 of Tekzilla, they looked at external GPUs for laptops:
