Although I still love my PS4 account, I recently discovered my laptop has a Thunderbolt 3 port and is therefore capable of utlising an external GPU (I have tried running Odyssey using the built in GTX1050Ti GPU - it runs but at a very poor frame rate). So, I'm thinking about using it to play Odyssey / Live galaxy.
I have done a bit of research and have found people successfully doing this with my laptop model so it seems like a viable option. Speaking to a PC gamer friend he has made a suggestion RE a graphics card to go for. I thought I would ask here if anyone has any experience of a similarly specced set up and if so how well (or not) it runs Odyssey?
CPU:
Intel Core i7-8750H - I think it's quad core running at 2.6ghz
16GB DDR4 RAM
GPU: (as noted will be housed externally and connected using Thunderbolt 3 which I belive is x4 PCIE connection).
Radeon RX 6550XT - have yet to buy this but will hopefully get an 8GB model.
My monitor is 1440 so I want to run at that resolution, could I expect a decent frame rate?
Any thoughts anyone?
