Hi all,

Just wondering how progress is on eGPU docks? I want to upgrade my GPU at some point and thought it might be cool to put it in a dock and connect it to a laptop. The laptop has a couple thunderbolt ports.

How’s compatibility these days?

    For sure. It’s something I’ve considered for a while simply because I don’t need that extra heat/noise created by the GPU when I’m only doing my day job.

      My only problem with this is that the docks are like $300. I guess igpus are getting good enough that I’ll probably never need a dgpu again.

      Still surprised how well the steamdeck can handle resident evil 4 remake.

      I really don’t need better graphics than that. In fact, they don’t even need to be that good.
