Blackmagic egpu on windows

Hi,

I have a Huaway matebook pro with thunderbolt 3 (win10) and tried to get the blackmagic eGPU to work. It is recognized in the device manager however, resolve only shows my internal gpu. If I deactivate the internal dedicated gpu Resolve does not start. Had anyone more luck?

From the Blackmagic Page:

"There are no limitations for Blackmagic eGPUs to work on the Windows platform. However, at the time of writing we believe there are some compatibility issues with the Windows platform, which means that we don't recommend using Blackmagic eGPUs with the Windows platform yet. We expect these limitations to be fixed in future updates from Windows computer vendors"

AKA, wait till Thunderbolt 3 actually comes to Surface Products, and should be able to finally use it.
