I'm looking into setting up an eGPU for my laptop (running Windows via Bootcamp) in order to play the Sims 3/CAW relatively smoothly/at high settings. Which enclosure and/or graphics card would you recommend getting (hopefully under $300 but that might be very unrealistic!).
oh god i really did make this account when I was 11 and it shows

If you do not get a more informed answer here, you may wish to cross-post to EA's Answers.HQ board and/or ModTheSims to expand the readership of the question to more who might be familiar with the process and can make some good recommendations.

Sims 3 isn't Sims 4, but I think the point was that the concept of an external graphics card was nice in theory but had some issues to work out in practice. While we could tell you what cards would theoretically run Sims 3 on ultra settings, there's no guarantee that it would work out that way. So it seems like a lot of money to spend on a possibility that doesn't have much of a track record to support it.
