Nice to see this but surely this is only of use for Hackintosh builds? Or is Thunderbolt connectivity supported for external GPUs?

The very old Pro, and external GPUs:

>Currently Mac users are limited to Maxwell GPUs from the company’s 9-series cards, but next week we’ll be able to finally experience Pascal, albeit a $1200 Pascal model, on the Mac.

>We have reached out to Nvidia for a statement about compatibility down the line with lesser 10-series cards, and I’m happy to report that Nvidia states that all Pascal-based GPUs will be Mac-enabled via upcoming drivers. This means that you will be able to use a GTX 1080, for instance, on a Mac system via an eGPU setup, or with a Hackintosh build.

Thats awesome, I was thinking about putting a hackintosh build together with a spare 1070 I have laying around.

More likely for the iMac/MacPro fresh. Apple doesn't officially supports external GPUs and iirc it only will work on an Apple device in boot camp since the TB drivers don't work on OSX.
