Question about Cooler Master MasterCase EG 200

Wanted to use the RX6600 as an eGPU in the Mastercase EG200 together with my Thinkpad X12 through thunderbolt wire. But Windows 11 and the AMD GPU as an EXTERNAL GPU do not work together: "Error12"! I googled "EGPU Error12" and boom, it is a very well known issue. Proposed solutions are declared to be unsave and mainly for Bootcamp (Apple) - not applicable to my Thinkpad. Wondering, why there isn´t any warning on Digitec´s homepage, esoecially on the EGPU cases I would expect. Any useful suggestions from Digitec or the community, how to get the RX6600 running as an eGPU installed in the EG200? (Latest MSI driver is installed.)

There are not all information shown in description, one of them that is important regarding compatibility is that according to manufacturer:

"systems require a thunderbolt™ 3 port with external graphics support. Please check with your laptop's manufacturer to confirm that your laptop supports thunderbolt 3 external graphics cards., please also ensure your laptop has the latest bios, firmware, thunderbolt software, and other applicable updates before connecting to cooler master eg200." and generally speaking

Thinkpad X12 series should be able to do that, but unfortunately we can't provide exact solution /advice as it might be compatibility issue involving Windows 11 and eGPu support. According to various information found on internet, if that is the case adequate solution was still not provided, you can return product
