upvote- especially when c4d lite is included and even in conjunction with use of 3d modeling as a compositing tool, After Effects does fall behind in playback scrub and rendering in real time and using the media encoder. Having an Egpu is a huge investment and the fact that premiere supports it but not after effects isn't great guys. Please support EGPU in your next update.

It's a graphics application. It's intensive. It needs to have eGPU support

At my company we use a lot of Apple computers and we use a lot of Adobe software -- so we need this type of solution.

Upvote, upvote! Please make eGPU support for Premiere and After Effects on the Mac a priority at Adobe. I bought my eGPU for this reason.

Purchased a Mac Mini a few months ago (surprise—it's a complete piece of trash) but the eGPU I just hooked into it was my saving grace for Photoshop and Illustrator. The fact that AE doesn't take advantage of the eGPU is a huge disappointment.

Please make it faster - I have a iMac Pro 64GB, 16GB AMD Graphic Card and a 8GB eGPU (Most of my business work is to make 3D-Things) but if I want to make a Vide - it is worst.

I've been following this thread for a while now and am happy to see more people commenting with their desire for this.
I do a lot of remote work, editing on my MacBook Pro and would love full eGPU support for Premiere and After Effects.
Please make this a reality!

Hello, please bring eGPU support to Adobe OSX applications. I have a Premiere, After Effects, Cinema 4D workflow that would benefit from extra GPU.

I work in 3 cities over the course of a year and have to drag my MacPro with me. I could get away with a more portable machine IF AE could make use of an eGPU.

#1 issue with After Effects is it is slow as ****. PLEASE do anything you can to make it faster. This seems like a no-brainer!!

No idea how this is not already a thing. You make graphics related software. Can you please update this so Preimere Pro utilises the egpu for general playback and not just rendering effects and exporting. Other platforms already have this like Final cut etc.

Adobe across the board needs to take advantage of eGPU support - we can all make bigger and better graphics... FASTER! It would only make Adobe look good, after all aren't the users really selling what Adobe can do?
