Extensive review and makes me feel it really is a good option, regardless of the fact I think it's the only card I can run off power via the PCI slot in an eGPU enclosure. I'll prob lose 10-15% of its usual performance but it should still be a big improvement over the 650m in my MacBook.
The jump should be pretty huge compared to a mobile card! I'm running a 560ti which I bought 4 years ago, which is roughly equivalent within the nVidia range and it can still get playable rates on recent games (with low-ish settings), so you should get some life out of it too
