Blackmagic introduces eGPU Pro

The more powerful Blackmagic eGPU Pro model features a blazingly fast Radeon RX Vega 56 that accelerates operations such as noise reduction in DaVinci Resolve up to 22x on a 13” MacBook Pro! Plus, the Blackmagic eGPU Pro also features an additional DisplayPort that supports 5K monitors.

 

 

When you’re looking for even greater performance, the Blackmagic eGPU Pro delivers the ultimate in graphics and computational acceleration! You get an AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 GPU, similar to the GPU used in the iMac Pro, with 8GB of HBM2 RAM, a massive 2048‑bit memory interface with 410 gigabyte per second bandwidth, 56 discreet compute units for up to 10.5 teraflops of processing power and support for Metal graphics technology from Apple. Whether you’re using a laptop or a desktop computer, you’ll get more realtime effects and faster image processing in DaVinci Resolve, more realistic lighting and textures when playing the latest 3D games, and dramatically more immersive VR experiences!
In addition to graphics and computational acceleration, the Blackmagic eGPU is also the perfect hub for connecting devices such as keyboards, mice, Thunderbolt monitors, big screen HDMI televisions, VR headsets, high speed storage and more. You get two Thunderbolt 3 connections, a built in 4 port USB hub and HDMI with support for high dynamic range 4K output. The Blackmagic eGPU Pro also features a DisplayPort for connecting 5K monitors.
