Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi, I was wondering if there is any other way to use a external GPU on the HP Envy X360 without having to use the Wifi PCIe lane. Like is there any way I could use the SD Card Reader slot or just any other ways would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 🙂

5QN27AV_1 is a CTO series which is NOT a valid model/product of your machine therefore I can't get its specs. Doe it have Thunderbolt 3 port ? If no then forget eGPU

 

(a) PCIe for WLAN is not designed to eGPU and it is the slowest PCIe port on normal machines.

(b) SD slot is NOT fast enough for eGPU

 

Regards.
