Is there a cheap route for getting a eGPU for my iMac 27' mid 2011

Hello everyone

I have a 27 inch iMac from mid 2011, and I am wondering if it is possible to get a eGPU system for my mac. I have seen the Bizon box, but it seems like there has to be a cheaper way to do it..... does anyone know of a good system that is effective but also not as expensive as the Bizon box? The easier the better, not the smartest when it comes to computer parts haha

Also, if possible can it be compatible for the GTX 970? As well, if there is any information I need to give please ask me, I am a beginner with this sort of thing

Thanks!

Thanks for the edit. Mac Rumours conducted a survey on fitting gfx cards set up as eGPU and thisis the result:-

I do not think it would be cheap at all. Here is a forum where mebers discus the how to and pros and cons and most state easier and cheaper to buy/build a gamer PC:-
