Yooo! If you're excited about the idea of speeding up a slouching macintosh computer, I've got good news :D

Kryptonite is a FOSS project that has been recently released and lets you connect an eGPU to a macintosh computer. This new software replaces the older systems that were less secure and also needed to be permanently installed into your operating system.

Watch this video to see how to install it and my review of it including use in Blender, Davinci Resolve.

I'm a software engineer, I've worked on numerous technologies over the past 10 years. I started out working on full motion flight simulators and then worked with embedded systems. I now work on building an add-on to support rendering using multiple computers over internet/local networks. I started using blender in 2009 and have done small projects with it since then, however, crowd render, our network rendering add-on is by far the biggest adventure with Blender to date.

    It should mentioned somewhere Kryptonite is for older Mac using Thunderbolt 1 or 2 - the Intel ones with Thunderbolt 3 work just fine with eGPUs without any changes
