Hazarth953632dUsing google colab is free and you get one free T4 GPU there. Or you can pay to get access to more powerful gpus and tpus later. Bud for playing It's plenty. Though I do understand the desire to run your own HW.

spongessuck616432dIt's an akitio node with some kind of Radeon in it, maybe 7600 I forget, for gaming on an HP Spectre x360. It's fine, definitely works better than the igpu in the 10th (I think) gen i7. I primarily use a steam deck for gaming now so I don't use it much anymore. There is a few percent overhead going over the TB bus, and there are caveats with the number of lanes your TB hardware allows on a single connection but I don't think it will affect you if you're not sending video output over the bus, and it may be a non issue with TB4, idk. If you need new hardware anyway, these days I'd just get a laptop with a dgpu, they're not that expensive anymore.

netikras3487432d@spongessuck thank you. This helps.
Earlier this year I got a beast of a laptop, so I'm not after a new one. And new lappy with a gpu means I can't upgrade it. Hence the research :)
Anyone tried eGPUs over thunderbolt? On Linux? Anything you could recommend?
I'd like to play around with ML for a bit
