Hello All!  I have a 2015 MacBook Pro 15", 2.2 Ghz i7 Processor, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 RAM, with Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB GPU.  I want to upgrade to a CUDA enabled GPU for faster rendering in Premiere Pro.  I'd love your recommendations and any reasoning for your recommendations.  I've been researching, but there are a lot of options.  What do you all like?

Thanks so much!

Not a Mac expert, but to the best of my knowledge, the GPU in a laptop  is not upgradeable.

Thanks

Jeff

Thanks for posting on Adobe forums, jpetersonphoto!

For best suggestions on the GPUs, I am moving your post to the Hardware forum.

The problem with your MacBook Pro and most other laptops is that the GPU in such systems is neither upgradable nor replaceable. In the case of your MacBook Pro, the system's innards are not user accessable at all – and even if it were, those systems with only integrated graphics have no provision at all whatsoever to add a discrete GPU chip or any dedicated GPU RAM.

In other words, you're forever stuck with what it already has.
