AMD HD7870 for eGPU?

[georgechew]

Greetings,
I've an AMD HD7870 on my bricked nMP. I was thinking maybe to buy a Mac Mini and put this card on a eGPU. But I find no mention on any eGPUs, supporting this vintage GPU. Maybe, and I wish maybe there is any support for it? Any clue or knowledge of it?
Thanks

edit: should on cMP, MP5,1, not nMP.

MP5,1 or MP6,1?

If it is a MP6,1 D300, you can't use it - no way to adapt it to a PCIe slot.

If it is a normal PCIe GPU from a MP5,1 - you will have to search on Netkas eGPU forum if anyone already tested it.

Thanks for your reply. It is from a normal PCIe GPU on MP5,1. Will look up on Netkas. Thanks again.
