Blackmagic eGPU
External graphics accelerator
Designed by Blackmagic and co-developed with Apple in California, the eGPU is an external graphics accelerator that increases the processing power of Apple’s MacBook Pro. At $699, it is an affordable means of transforming a laptop into a professional workstation, enhancing graphics, gaming and video editing workflows. Unlike typical processors, the eGPU is virtually silent. Compact and elegant, its floating form is specifically designed for optimal airflow through a bespoke thermal management system. A global sell-out within two weeks of launch, it has had a profound impact on the way MacBook users handle professional video and graphics.
