Thunder 3 External graphics effect is good, but in addition to akitio node other manufacturers will not maintain their own firmware to fit the new model, I bought the MBP 2016 15 "appeared and Aorus Gaming Box 1070 is incompatible with the problem, At the time of the boot will be in the win logo in the circle to die, I contacted the manufacturers, customer service, gave them a call sent the mail, are quickly turned into harassment, but did not solve the problem, get the answer is the problem in the solution, do not know when to solve. Later on Egpu.io found a solution and try to succeed, the effect is good https://egpu.io/forums/implementation-guides/ late-2016-15-macbook-pro-rp450-gtx107032gbps-tb3-aorus-gaming-box-win10-theitsage/#post-17864 I only realized the external monitor part for simplicity, And so on gigabyte upgrade firmware expected to solve this problem completely. And I translate the simple steps for only the external monitor: if you only intend to use EGPU with external displays, try these steps
Install Windows 10[via bootcamp in MacOS]
Install Ddu to remove the default graphics driver and disable Windows automatic GPU driver installation [in Windows].
Create a manual restore point, just in case there is a startup problem [in Windows]. (I did not do this step)
Select view by connection in Device Manager, and then locate the PCIe controller x8-1905 to disable it in [Windows].
Close and then connect the EGPU (with an external display) to one of the Thunderbolt 3/usb-c ports on the right. (I can only connect to the right, the left is not, can be left on the right, I have a mouse on the right)
Open Device Manager to confirm that the 2x Microsoft basic display adapter exists in Windows and is active. (the left side is unresponsive)
Install the Nvidia graphics driver, and then restart [in Windows]. (In fact, the internal screen can be used but the resolution is not correct)
