external graphics card for macbook pro late 2013

We will use notebooks from several price ranges for a comparison with the MacBook Pro Retina. Thanks to the combination of performance, a sturdy aluminum case and the comparatively low weight, it qualifies for multimedia purposes. Our review unit differs from the entry-level configuration with a dedicated Nvidia GeForce GT 750M graphics card, twice the amount of flash storage (512 GB) and memory (16 GB) as well as a more powerful Intel Core i7-4850HQ CPU clocked at 2.3 GHz. The cheapest MacBook from this series is currently available for around 2,000 Euros (~$2722), which is 300 Euros (~$408) less compared to the first Retina version from 2012. However, fans of Mac OS and the Retina resolution can be happy about a positive price development. The price for such a notebook is still very high. The first models with this IPS display had issues with ghosting, but that was fixed very quickly.

Thanks to its pixel density of 220 DPI, the human eye could not see individual pixels. With the introduction of the Retina-series in 2012, which was equipped with an IPS panel and 2880x1800 pixels, Apple was the first company to integrate ultra high-resolution displays in this notebook category.
