    With Inetl announcing eGPU support over thunderbolt 3.0, this is a massive game changer for what gaming laptops and even desktops will look like over the next year.



    I'm firmly not buying a new gaming laptop until it supports USB-C Thunderbolt 3.0 support.

    So the big question is, when will they be coming out?!

    EDIT:
    DOH!! I mean Thunderbolt in the heading!

    That's if we get proper driver support etc. It may be some time before we see viable solutions.
