Hi all,
Trying to find an answer to this...
I have a 4 year old MBP 16" i9 that I use exclusively in clamshell mode with a BlackMagic eGPU (Vega 56) and XDR Pro Display
Using the MBP in clamshell mode feels like a waste and thinking of upgrading to an Mac Studio Max or Ultra
Obviously the eGPU won't work with Apple Silicon, so will have to go in the upgrade
Question : My need for an eGPU is edge case, but an important edge case. Every few months I'll get sucked into playing WoW and I really like the job the Vega 56 does in the eGPU. Is the GPU performance of Mac Studio M2 Max at least as good as the Vega 56 for WoW, or will I be taking a step back. Similarly, does anyone know the WoW performance I can expect if I spend twice the money and buy the Mac Studio with the M2 Ultra?
Thanks!
