I'm trying to use an external GPU (Gt1030) with a dock through the wireless slot, (removed the wireless card) but it does not show up, I've confirmed that the GPU and external PSU are working. It may just be some setting but I'm stumped Nvidia software says no card is detected

Your machines does NOT have any internal NOR external port which is fast enough for an eGPU. Please also use the following discussion
