    Hi folks,

    I'm new to learning about eGPUs and was wondering if I could get some experienced feedback before I begin all the research. Is it worth it to put money into the graphics of this laptop? Specs are: i32350m (2 cores @ 2.3 GHz), 8gb ram, intel SSD, Windows 8

    I just want something that can run modern games, not maxed out or anything.

    Questions: Can I do this for under $200? Is it very technical for a relative novice?

    Thanks
