Here is a link for this type of product but by going through Thunderbolt port rather than Expresscard slot (which is limited by the PCIe x 1 bandwidth).

Set view to Resources by connection, then expand the Memory tree & take the screenshot. I need to check the TOLUD value on your notebook. i don't understand what u mean by first 8 digits memory address This post has been edited by kamkemkimkom: Oct 15 2012, 12:58 AM |

QUOTE(kizwan @ Sep 3 2011, 02:46 PM) eGPU Configurations sorry kizwan i really dont understand on how to determine which type pe4H to buy and which type of egpu to configured.A. PCIe x1 link. This setup only require one PCIe x1 port. This can be either mPCIe port or ExpressCard (34mm/54mm) slot. There are two flavors of PCIe x1 link setup:-
This setup require two PCIe x1 ports. This can be either combination of ExpressCard + mPCIe slot OR two mPCIe ports. x2 link setup only possible with either of these combinations:-
Remember, the PCIe port(s) that is/are reported "Empty" doesn't means they are available physically. You need to check them yourself. mPCIe port(s) usually located at the bottom of your notebook, in HDD/RAM compartment. For ExpressCard slot, you need to connect, for example, ExpressCard to eSATA/USB adapater to know the ExpressCard PCIe port number. This is an example of x2 link connections; PCIe port#1 (WWAN) & port#2 (WLAN):- This setup provide performance equivalent to x1.Opt setup, except the internal LCD support/acceleration. External monitor is a must for this setup since notebook doesn't have compatible iGPU to project frames to internal LCD. You can use either ATiAMD or Nvidia graphic card for this setup. C. PCIe x4 link. This is rare setup. This setup require 4 PCIe x1 ports; PCIe port#1 + port#2 + port#3 + port #4 OR PCIe port#5 + port#6 + port#7 + port #8. Only some notebooks have PCIe ports arrangement that can support this setup, e.g. Dell Studio XPS 1645. NOTE: x2 & x4 link setup are not possible on SB notebooks due to hardware/BIOS limitation. ExpressCard (34mm/54mm) (Source: www.expresscard.org) Comparison between CardBus & ExpressCard. Only ExpressCard useful for eGPU. eGPU vs. PCI space eGPU will require 256MB of PCI space for it to work. TOLUD register defined available PCI space on notebooks. On some notebooks, TOLUD register is set too high which means there is not enough PCI space for eGPU. In this situation, the only way you can get eGPU to work is by reducing RAM to 2GB/3GB of RAM. With more RAM, eGPU will be detected but with Error 12 in Device Manager. To know the value set in TOLUD register, you can use Device Manager; set View to "Resources by connection" & expand the Memory tree; like this:- The first PCI bus with 8 digits memory address is what you're looking for. In the above example, the firs PCI bus with 8 digits memory address is 0xA8000000. The calculation is simple:- 0xA8000000 = 2818572288 (dec) bytes = 2818572288 / 1024 / 1024 / 1024 = 2.625 GB As long as TOLUD is equal or lower than 3.25 GB, you will have no problem using eGPU & 4GB or more RAM. You can use this table for quick calculation:-
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ You can easily supercharged the ULV processor using ThrottleStop. Anyway, kimchoo DIY eGPU setup is x1 link with Optimus which is better than PCIe x2 setup. With PCIe x2 setup the eGPU will perform roughly 80% from it actual capability. There is several video on youtube. You'd be surprise how well it perform on PCIe x2 or PCIe x1.Opt (with optimus). and how to determine the TOLUD.

Sorry guys. I'm not active with eGPU project at the moment, almost one year now.
Fakhril99, I recommend using eGPU if your notebook have either express card slot or thunderbolt port. If not you will have to use the mini-PCIe slot which is not convenience. Express card slot or thunderbolt port would allow you to disconnect/connect eGPU without extra effort. |

Hello all, and thanx all the comunity forum.
I have this one: Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E330 i3-3120/4GB/500GB/13.3" updated >> Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E330 i7-3612QM/8GB/250GB SSD/13.3" Corsair GS700 Ati Sapphire HD 5850 I think I need PE4L-PM060A or PE4H-PM3N-060B (the PE4L is cheaper), I don´t know if I´m right. The PE4L is the best option in my opinion. I read a lot of guides, I´m a little confused with a lot of material, manuals, etc. This is the service manual show can connect msata and wan in pcie port, i dont sure if is posible conect the PE4L-PM060A in this port without remove the original WIFI card. http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pc..._0b48602_04.pdf (page 69) Is this a option too? http://eshop.sintech.cn/laptop-mini-pcie-t...vete-p-948.html Thanx a lot, and sorry my inglish, I´m spanish. |
