About two years ago, Blackmagic launched its eGPU in partnership with Apple. It was the first external GPU officially recommended by those working at Cupertino, to provide everyone who needed more work in editing or photo and video games. A few months later, the company surprised us with eGPU Pro, which provided better graphics to compliment including the Radeon RX Vega 56 card.
But just as it came, it goes: MacRumors has received confirmation that Blackmagic stops making those GPU Pro's because AMD stops producing integrated RX Vega 56 graphics cards. Simply, if there are no drawings, there is no external GPU. Apple removed Blackmagic from GPU Pro in its online store, after a season when its shipping was unavailable.
EGPUs on Macs: Failed Trial?
The original Blackmagic model in the GPU is still available, but be careful: Your delivery lasts up to 10-12 weeks (3 months!). It can be troublesome to get items taken from a coronavirus protest, even after the disappearance of the & # 39; Pro & # 39;
Does this mean that Apple has decided to stop recommending external GPUs on its Mac? They appeared at a time when technicians were still waiting for the Mac Pro and were obsessed with the carrying capacity or the Power mini, though Now that we have a regular Mac on the table and at Apple, they may decide to drop the idea. Either way, or next time we'll see new Blackmagic models in GPUs with modern graphics cards.
