I bought this device hoping that I could connect an external GPU to the hardware accelerated video rendering in Premiere Pro. However, due to Apple's unwise policy of rejecting NVIDIA graphics cards, you can only use AMD GPUs, which are not well supported by Adobe and do little to improve your graphics processing performance. It could be good. for games. I do not know. I don't play on my Mac. Don't buy this for your Mac if you want better video playback. Instead: Sell your Mac and build a good PC, then buy a decent NVIDIA card and just put it in a PC case. The problem is solved. Speaking of Mac, I bought it to upgrade to a decent video editing platform. Apparently the Mac is no longer suitable for this. I hate to say that Windows - horribly and ugly - just has better hardware support. I'm a little sorry I threw thousands of dollars into that stupid car. But I suspect this is what happens when it takes 5 hours to render a 24 minute video - in between when you just pray to god that the rendering is right and you don't have to keep doing it over and over to cause some stupid problem remedy .
